The chief merit of the song is that it is
written in only one octave, aimed to fit the
general voice of singers. with no high or
difficult notes. The story Of the song contains
very pretty love scene and the music is so
retentiye as to tempt one to play and sing it
constantly without growing tired of its haunt
ing melody.
Advance copies Of the song reached Barre
