सवाशीण ठेवा माझ्या आळीच्या जावा भावा
धाकली नाही घरी तिच्या उंबर्या कुंकू लावा

dhākalī nāhī gharī ticyā umbaryā kuṅkū lāvā		✎ Invite as savashina sisters’ in law of my lane

kunkuA red spot applied on the forehead by married women whose husband is alive as a mark of good fortune. This powder is also applied to God as a part of worship. It is prepared from turmeric, lemon juice, alum etc.
Notes =>Usual practice is: when somebody goes to invite a lady and if she is absent from home, a little kunku* powder is placed on the step of the house to tell her that she is invited for the ceremony.
