Set to the Rag Vasanta in tal Ekotali (4 count rhythm) this item recounts the romantic aroma of springtime in details like the flower buds, cuckoo birds and the mad elephants of the forest abode where Krishna dwells. Lord Krishna is known as the ‘rasa raja’ (king of nectarian delight) and thrives in this romantic moods as he dances with the gopis.
