This folk song describes the emotions of a lover who is disconcerted by the thought of their lover moving away from them. They feel a sense of longing for them as their lover moves away and the discomfort has extended to the point where they are having trouble in eating or even sleeping without them.

Lyrics –

Mhora Sajaniyon/balamiyan pardeshan sidhaare re
(My beloved is going abroad)

Aji man piya bin neend nahi aave
(Sleep eludes me as he moves away)

Dhan nahi bhave neend nahi aav manne
(I can’t eat or sleep in his absence)

Aji man piya bin chain nahi aave
(I don’t feel fulfilled in his absence)

Raat sutino sapno aayo re
(I dreamed about him last night)

Aji man piya bin neend nahi aaye neend nahi aave
(I can’t eat or sleep in his absence)

Dhan nahi bhave neend nahi aav manne
(I can’t eat or sleep in his absence)

Aapre karaniye bagda lagawo re
(I have planted a garden for him)

Aji man piya bin neend nahi aaye neend nahi aave
(I can’t eat or sleep in his absence)

Dhan nahi bhave neend nahi aav manne
(I can’t eat or sleep in his absence)

Chain nahi aave dhaan nahin bhaave
(I don’t feel fulfilled in his absence)

Aji mann piya bin neend nahin aave
(I can’t eat or sleep in his absence)

aapre karaniye darudo mangawa re
(I have ordered wine for him)

Aji man piya bin neend nahi aaye neend nahi aave
(I can’t eat or sleep in his absence)

Dhan nahi bhave neend nahi aav manne
(I can’t eat or sleep in his absence)

Jaishane jaava chudla laavo
(Go to Jaisalmer and set him free)

Aji man piya bin neend nahi aaye neend nahi aave
(I can’t eat or sleep in his absence)

Dhan nahi bhave neend nahi aav manne
(I can’t eat or sleep in his absence)
