A devotional बंदिश, a Meera Bhajan, composed by Meera Bai, a 16th century, famous, devotee of Lord Krishna. Another ♫दरबारी कानडा feast.
Music, when the lyrics describe some purposeful emotion or thought. These posts are in a mix of English/Hindi or English/Kannada pairs. With the advent of Google's transliteration, it is unnecessary to have inconsistent and misleading hand-crafted English transliterations of originals, for Hindi and Kannada in this blog's case. [If a transliteration is required, it can always be produced by software]. Hindustani ragas are shown in Devanagari, e.g., ♫देश; Carnatic, in Kannada, e.g., ♫ಖರಹರಪ್ರಿಯ.

मेहँदी है रचनेवाली, हाथों में गहरी लाली
The video you see is an illustration of how to dance to the song, by the famous Bollywood choreographer Saroj Khan. It is sung to a new bride — बन्नो — as she prepares herself for the wedding.
The original picturization of the song on Karishma Kapoor, however, has a somewhat different melodrama woven into the song.

देवन के पति इन्द्रा
A lovely composition by Swathi Thirunal that is designed for Raag ♫दरबारी कानडा, as you will note from the line
राग पति कानडा,
and enumerates all the 'head's of various important life's larger-than-life ingredients.
