Hari Om!
Makes me cry, sway from side to side, long for Guruji.

Perhaps not your Guruji, but have a listen and feel the presence, feeling yours in His place or realizing that All are One! Jai Jai Jai Gurudev!
Om

I like this song 'Bhay Bhanjana Vandana' by great Manna day.

It is sung for maa durga.

She starts off with bihAg and then changes gears mid-way to get on the highway. There are several flyovers too...
Need more clues?
This is a lovely khayAl in bihAg:
kaise sukha soye nindariyA
shyAma murata chita chadi
soche soche sadAranga
yA bidha gATha padi S S
(How can I sleep peacefully and blissfully when that transcendental form of ShyAma (Shri KRshNa) is the prime thing on the mind? Keep thinking of that ever-blissfull One now that I happen to have met Him in life.)

Sob KRshNa , sob , Where are You? Can anyone ever have enough of You?
Jay MAdhava Madana MurArI
GopAl MuraliyA WAle --- by Vinod Aggarwal ji
Stumbling and groping in the dull darkness of seperation, finally the Lord had some Mercy and made this one come across this bhajan related by Vinod Aggawal ji. This is a weird separation despite KRshNa being right there - as if the devotee cannot have enough of Him and searching...
Aggarwalji is creative as always - with his comments,
Explains what Radha bhAv is - not about doing good deeds, but about being good, which makes everything follow. Being so good, as to attract KRshNa.

shri rAdhe-govindA...
Shri RAdhe-GovindA, GopAlA, NandalAlA, Giridhar (mountain holder), nAgar, shyAmal (awe)
vitthal vitthal vitthal vitthal
are beloved names of Shri Hari (the Lord Narayan KRshNa) sung by His devotees (Meera, Tukaram, Namdev, Surdas). O mind, sing and meditate over these in devotion.
[Sometimes the mind enters this desert of not having enough hari-water.]
rAdhA Shakti binA na koi shyAmal darshan paye
ArAdhan kar rAdhe rAdhe kAnhA bhAge aye ||2||
shri rAdhe-govindA ... ||
You cannot see Dearest ShyAmal without RAdhA-shakti (devotional worship energy)
Devote your mind to rAdhe rAdhe and shyAm will come running to the spot
simaran kA ras jisko aya wo hi jAne man me
nirAkAr sAkAr ho utare bhagato ke Angan me || 3||
shri rAdhe - govindA ...
One who has the mellow of this sweet remembrance alone know what it is like in their mind
The formless One takes shape and form in the mind-garden of the devotee
shyAma salonA kunja bihAri natwar leela dhAri
antarvAsi hari avinAshi lAge sharaNa tihAri ||4||
shri rAdhe-govindA ...
The Dark Beautiful ShyAm, resident of the forest groves, performing transcendental pastimes with His beloved devotees
I take Your shelter [at Your Lotus Feet] O dweller of the innermost heart-cave, the imperishable Hari...

Lokanath Maharaj ji's voice is soul-stirring. Just started listening and feel the bhakti immediately. Thanks for sharing.
The video shows we don't need words to glorify god. A simple Mahamantra japa would do wonders if done with emotion! :)
Re: Bhakti Sagara - Collection of Bhajans
Jo To Sange JyAlA tyAlA, Veda lAgale rAdhelA
Everyone has been telling each other that Radha has gone crazy
She dressed Herself in the saree made of the Lord's yellow silk
put together a bunch of peacock feathers [in Her hair]
She keeps applying kAjal (mascara) at the oddest times
Oh Radha has gone crazy
She adorns Herself with a floral crown on Her long thick vibrant braid
She offers the garland of the pearls of liberation [or a flower called muktAmaNi] to Her own reflection in the mirror
She winks and blinks at the reflection in the mirror
Oh Radha has gone crazy
Then she takes dips in the water currents of the Yamuna river
That Radha turns into KRshNAA (with two As, feminine -- i.e. made of KRshNa)
The drenched Radha embraces the Lord Who rests on the Shesha - Naag
Oh Radha has gone crazy...
