Dear Friends,

I'm struggling to transliterate some of the text in this image, which appears linked to the Śrī rāga. Though the Naṭa putra rāga is apparently assigned to the Megha rāga.

If some kind soul has the time and inclination to help, then I would surely appreciate it. It is only a few words. I'm guessing the language is a form of Rajasthani, or Marathi or Dekkani? The auction site at which the image is located has very little detail, except to say that is from the 1800s. It is interesting, to me, at least, due to the unusual practice of naming the performers of these various acts. Personally, I quite like the anti-gravitational necklace on the female pole dancer.
