Lyrics -
Preetam preet laga ke piya door disha mat jaao baso hamari nagri mein saajan gudiyoda vi Dedein lagin jo dor jholo lago prem ko to kahaan gudi kahaan dor
(Oh my beloved, don’t go far from me after giving me this love Come and stay in our city, oh my beloved, the puppets are tied firmly to their strings which hold them but if they catch this nuisance called love, then even those strings won’t be enough to hold them on)
Meetho meetho bol papiha, pyaare pyaare bol baagam bharo mewarsi meetho meetho bol
(Sing sweetly, oh cuckoo bird, fill these gardens with your sweet voice)
Maas syaro, seehadalo pade seerakh paththar no, lijiyo thaare saath
(It’s the winter season, so take a blanket to cover yourself)
Meetho meetho bol papiha, pyaare pyaare bol baagam bharo mewarsi meetho meetho bol
(Sing sweetly, oh cuckoo bird, fill these gardens with your sweet voice)
Maas laado, luhad le pade jhaari ne, peenjaniyon lijiyo thaare saath
(It’s the summer season, and the hot summer wind blows, so keep a lot of water, and a fan with you !)
Meetho meetho bol papiha, pyaare pyaare bol baagam bharo mewarsi meetho meetho bol
(Sing sweetly, oh cuckoo bird, fill these gardens with your sweet voice)
Maas barsaano, meghar la pade tambur doradi lijiyo thaare saath
(It’s the rainy season, the clouds pour the rain, so keep your tent and its strings with you. )
Meetho meetho bol papiha, pyaare pyaare bol baagam bharo mewars meetho meetho bol
(Sing sweetly, oh cuckoo bird, fill these gardens with your sweet voice)
