注記2: 注記2：曲目解説に「4.」「SHAB SHAKHIRE PAR KORITE」「Singer: Sabina Yasmin and Abdul Alim.」「This is a duet song performed by two very celebrated artistes of the country, the latter not being alive now. The theme again is love. Here the man is approaching the girl who comes from a relatively better background. The man is a boatman of the ferry that the girl has to cross. The beauty of the girl attracts the man and he makes advances. Addressing the girl he says, 」「"I take coins from everyone for crossing the ferry./ But I shall accept nothing less than gold from you,/ Dear friend, no bargaining is anticipated at the ferry of love./ One has to exchange only hearts."」「But the girl rejects the proposal outright. She says,」「"I just do not know what love is,/ I do not exchange hearts,/ Take me to the other side or say ‘no'."」「But words are capable of carressing one's sentiments. As the man continues to make fresh advances, the girl gradually softens and finally agrees to establish a relationship. The man assures that he will never abandon her.」と記載(「[4.に]赤丸印」「[duet songに]赤色下線」の書き込みあり)。
