There have been requests for adding carnatic notation for songs on this blog. I'm pressed for time now, so I'm just presenting the mapping between western notes and carnatic swaras. Check back in a month or two, and you'd sure find the carnatic notations for each song that I upload.
The carnatic swaras are as follows:

can you please explain why 2 naming have been given for notes
r2/g1, r3/g2, d2/n1, d3/n2 kindly explain the logic behind this.
thank you
@ Balaji,
I don't know the reason behind giving two names. Perhaps you could look up on Carnatic music tutorials for that. This is there in Western notation too, like C# can also be called D-flat.
Thank You for the reply....
The logic behind 2 note names in western music is very simple. Eg. a Note lower to the main note is called Flat and the note higher to the main note is Sharp and the naming is absolute but in classical it keeps on changing according to scale.... If you do find out please reply me..
thank You
Hello Manjusha,
You have posted notations of many songs & good material for newbies.
Can you give me notation for one heart touching song from Yesboss
"Ek din app yun mujhko mil jayenge".
If i can play this on my keyboard then i will be very happy.
Thanks In advance
Chintan
