Explanation:

Bhawaiya is a musical form or a popular folk music that originated in Northern Bengal, especially Rangpur Division in Bangladesh, Cooch Behar district of West Bengal, India and Goalpara district of Assam, India. A "working class" music, with the recurring figures of mahouts (elephant trainers and catchers), mahishals (buffalo herders) and gariyals (cart drivers) the lyrics of these songs express pangs of separation and loneliness of their womenfolk, with elongated tones accentuating pain, longing and "deep emotion". Generally believed to have originated in the 16th century under the Koch king Vishwa Singha, it has evolved into stage performances since the 1950s and more widely since the 1990s. The lyrics of Bhawaiya songs are non-denominational.
