सकाळच्या पारी हात भरल शेणाणी
कंपाळीच कुंकु लाली मारीत मेणाणी
sakāḷacyā pārī hāta bharala śēṇāṇī
kampāḷīca kuṅku lālī mārīta mēṇāṇī

✎ Getting up in the morning, my hands are full of cow dung
Kunku* on my forehead is looking redder because of wax
▷ (सकाळच्या)(पारी) hand (भरल)(शेणाणी)
▷ (कंपाळीच) kunku (लाली)(मारीत)(मेणाणी)

Le matin à l'aube j'ai les mains pleines de bouse
Le kumku à mon front sur la cire est d'un rouge resplendissant
