सीता चालली वनवासाला माग तिन ग पाहिल
राम त्या राजाच धोतर नाही ते राहिल
sītā cālalī vanavāsālā māga tina ga pāhila
rāma tyā rājāca dhōtara nāhī tē rāhila

✎ Sita is leaving for her exile in forest, she looked back
She didn’t even have Ram’s dhotar* with her (as rememberance)
▷ Sita (चालली)(वनवासाला)(माग)(तिन) * (पाहिल)
▷ Ram (त्या)(राजाच)(धोतर) not (ते)(राहिल)

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.
