कदम किवळाबाई - Kadam Kiwala
रमाबाई कुकु लेती बाई मेणावरी गोल
भीम इवाइनात बोल दलिताचे काय हाल
ramābāī kuku lētī bāī mēṇāvarī gōla
bhīma ivāināta bōla dalitācē kāya hāla
Ramabai applies the round mark of kunku* on wax
Baba speaks from the plane, how are the Dalits* doing
▷  Ramabai kunku (लेती) woman (मेणावरी)(गोल)
▷  Bhim (इवाइनात) says (दलिताचे) why (हाल)
