kaahe maana karo sakhee ree aba
bahuta dinana te piyaa ghara aaye
vaako manaao rijhaao dheera dharo |
gaMdhamaala so aMga sajaao
vividha DhaMga so gaao bajaao
preetama kee aba preeta haro ||
Devnagri
काहे मान करो सखी री अब
बहुत दिनन ते पिया घर आये
वाको मनाओ रिझाओ धीर धरो ।
गंधमाल सो अंग सजाओ
विविध ढंग सो गाओ बजाओ
प्रीतम की अब प्रीत हरो ॥
Meaning
Oh friend, why you are being so discourteous? Your beloved had come to meet you after a long time, so Go on flattering him, pleasing him, be tolerant. Decorate yourself with fragrant garlands. By singing and colorful music, win your lover’s heart.
