  The first song is Bahilini - girls move around carol singing at the festival of the Cow. The second song is Deusuray - boys move around carol singing at the festival of the Bull. Both from Diwali, the festival of Lights. The piece is about the festival, its ceremonies, the beauty of the surroundings and blessings to the house in whose porch the carolers sing.
