Notes
- ^ Diipavali is the festival of lights that occurs on the new-moon day of the month of Karttik, roughly mid-October to mid-November. According to legend, on the day before Diipavalii, Krśńa's wife, Satyabhámá, defeated and killed King Narakasura, who had attacked Dwaraka, the capital of Krśńa's kingdom. It is said that the people of Dwaraka jubilantly welcomed Satyabhámá back to the city with elaborate lights.
- ^ For details on the notation, see Roman Bengali transliteration.
