How to play Happy Birth Day To You using Sa Re Ga Ma notes



Tune:

Happy birth day to you,

Happy birth day to you,
Happy birth day dear name here,
Happy birth day to you.

Notation:

'Pa'Pa 'Dha- 'Pa- Sa- 'Ni---,
'Pa'Pa 'Dha- 'Pa- Re- Sa---,
'Pa'Pa Pa- Ga- Sa- 'Ni 'Dha---,
MaMa Ga- Sa- Re Sa---.

Notes:
Only Shuddha Swaras have been used in this tune. Notes from both Mandra Saptak (Lower Octave) and Madhya Saptak (Middle Octave) have been used in this tune. The 3rd note Pa in the third line of the song is the higher Madhya Saptak Pa, and NOT the lower Mandra Saptak 'Pa.

Thorough practice of the above notation of this tune leads to a very good control over the lowest notes in the Mandra Saptak on the instrument.

The - symbol indicates continuation of the previously played note before moving over to the next note or before coming to the end of a line, stanza or song.
