Ramkrishna Das sings khayaals in raag Naayakii Kaanadaa
Vilambit Khayaal in Taal Jhuumraa
Rainaa bairan bhayii birahaa agan
Ban ké naagaan dasat jaat jiyaraa.
Rahiyo naa jaay naad rang piyaa bin
Pal chhin mahuurat jug bhayiilaa..
Drut Khayaal in Tiin taal
Naval laalan bég lé aavo
Uthat jiyaa huuk so hii man sukh.
Tarapat huun har dam naad rang binaa
Bulaavo balamuvaa daras dikhaavo..
