पाणोताच्या बाया सांगा पाण्याचा उतार
माझ्या बंधवाच गुडघ्या भिजल धोतर
pāṇōtācyā bāyā sāṅgā pāṇyācā utāra
mājhyā bandhavāca guḍaghyā bhijala dhōtara

✎ Women who have come to fetch water, tell me where the water is shallow
My brother’s dhotar* has become wet up to the knees
▷ (पाणोताच्या)(बाया) with (पाण्याचा)(उतार)
▷ My (बंधवाच)(गुडघ्या)(भिजल)(धोतर)

pas de traduction en français

dhotar ➡ dhotars

When the singer says that she goes to her village with dhotar, it means that she is just carrying a cloth to bring things from maher (a married woman’s parental home). Similarly, she sometimes means that she is carrying a stole.
