Tune nAga gAndhari with abc notation and mp3

The tune nAga gAndhAri is a rare tune (rAga). It is a child tune of the mother tune (mELakarta) 20 naTabhairavi of the Carnatic Music System of South India.
The song (kriti) 'sarasijanAbha sOdari' was the work of Late MuttuswAmi dIkshitar of 19th Century is noted for its melody.

Set in Carnatic RUpaka tALA it has a 2 + 2 + 2 pattern.

This mp3 by ybrao a donkey, presents a brief delineation of the rAga (called AlAp) which does not follow rhythmic beats or counts , followed by the composition with refrain, supporting refrain and chorus. Later, a few cycles of creative notes follow, refrain repeating everytime.

Ascendence and descendence (mUrchhana) of nAgagAndhAri
Ascend: c,d,f,g,g#,a#,c' (sa,catusriti ri, suddh ma, pa, suddh da, kaisiki ni).
Hindusthani: sa, suddh ri, suddh ma, pa, komal dha, komal ni).
Descend: c',a#,g#,g,f,d,d#,c (sa, ni, da, pa, ma, ri, ga, sa).
Hindusthani: sa, ni, da, pa, ma, ri, ga, sa.
We can treat this as belonging to the THATH (mother tune) AsAvri.
Errors belong to ybr and not to MuttuswAmi dIkshitar.
