लट उलझी सुलझा जा बालमा
हाथो मे मेहेंदी लगी है मोरे ।
माथे की बिन्दियाँ बिखर गयी मोरी
अपने हाथ सजा जा बालम ॥

अपने हाथ लगा जा बालम ॥

A wisp of my hair is locked, my dear beloved, please resolve it As I have pasted Henna to my hands (I can’t solve it). My Bindi (an ornament to wear on head) is strangled, Oh beloved, set it beautifully on my head. My anklets are too strangled Please lock it properly with your hand, oh beloved.
