Lyrics –

Damdi leke attiyan jaana
(I have to go to the shop with money)

Marube da bee laana
(To buy the seeds of Maruba)

Lobhi maruba la
(I love Maruba)

Saila maruba le meri jaani
(I will bring green saplings of Maruba)

Maruba la
(Maruba)

Diyan na maaye meri godhni
(Mother give me my planter)

Marube godhna jaana
(I have to go for preparation of Maruba planting)

Saila maruba la
(Bring green saplings)

Saila maruba le meri jaani
(Bring green saplings of Maruba)

Diyan na maaye meri ghaghra
(Mother give me my clay pot)

Main marube phera paana
(I will go round the plant with it)

Saila maruba la
(Bring green saplings)

Saila maruba le meri jaani
(Bring green saplings of Maruba)

Oh diyan ne maayi meri shaabri
(Mother give me my basket)

Marube chugna jaana
(I have to collect the fruits of Maruba)

Teri sau marube chugne jaana
(I swear on you mother I am going to collect the fruits of Maruba)

Saila maruba la
(Bring green saplings)

Saila maruba le meri jaani
(Bring green saplings of Maruba)

Jodi jaadi maruba shabariya paaya
(I will collect the Maruba and keep it in my basket)

Le chale bazaar
(I am taking my basket to the market)

Duli duli paunde karad
(People are becoming so happy to see my basket)

Saila maruba la
(Bring green saplings)

Saila maruba le meri jaani
(Bring green saplings of Maruba)
