In this song, the queen is singing for her beloved king, asking him to stay with her. She tells him how she is going to adorn him, comparing with her pieces of jewellery. The song is sung at weddings.
Dheema mandra te aaiyi jo ho raj jore invi raja nathdi ro hero neer khardne aaijo raj
(Come slowly O King!, and stay inside and don’t go anywhere, I will keep you the same way like I keep the diamond in my nose pin)
Nathni ro moti karne rakho, hum raaj bhaino raja
(I will keep you like the pearl in my nose pin, O King stay here)
Sadura the laayijo oh lalayijo invi raj re ,
(Whenever you will be come back bring a stole for me, bring it O king! )
Sadure saath bhalero ro ni hum ro ni re
(the stole looks beautiful on me)
(Hum roni re bhaino raja)
(Now don’t go)
Re chudhali re chinth bhalero, bhalero re muhin ji
(I will wear the bangles with all my heart, O King stay here)
Hum roni re bhaino raja
(Now don’t go)
Hey padaliya laayijo oh lalayijo invi raj
(Bring me a lovely gift while on your way back here)
Padaliya pothe bhalero hum roh ni bhaino raj
(Get a gift and stay here thereon)
Nathdi ro hero neer khardne aaijo rajj
(I will keep you the same way like I keep the diamond in my nose pin)
Nathni ro moti karne rakho, hum raaj bhaino raja
(I will keep you like the pearl in my nose pin, O King stay here)
Dhola maru ji
(My beloved)
Haatho mein hera kar rakho
(I will treat you like a diamond)
