  1. A swarmalika is a melodic composition that uses only swaras (notes) instead of words. It helps students practice raga phrases and rhythm. The given swarmalika is in Raga Bilawal, which follows the S R G M P D N Ṡ scale (like the Western major scale). It is set to Teen Taal (16 beats) and is used for basic vocal training in Hindustani music.
