दुरुनी वळखीते एका गाडीमधी दोघ
बंधव माझा धोतराचा सोडी सोगा
durunī vaḷakhītē ēkā gāḍīmadhī dōgha
bandhava mājhā dhōtarācā sōḍī sōgā

✎ I recognise from far, they are two in the bullock-cart
My brother lets the border of the dhotar* fall on his feet

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.
