गावाला गेल बाळ मला दिसत डौलदार
नखीच्या धोतराच्या निर्या सोडतो चौदा चार
gāvālā gēla bāḷa malā disata ḍauladāra
nakhīcyā dhōtarācyā niryā sōḍatō caudā cāra

✎ My son has gone to another village, he looks graceful to me
He drapes his dhotar* with a small border, making many pleats
▷ (गावाला) gone son (मला)(दिसत)(डौलदार)
▷ (नखीच्या)(धोतराच्या)(निर्या)(सोडतो)(चौदा)(चार)
