आहेव मरणाची माझ्या गळ्यात सरी
दीर आहे खांदकरी कंथ काढीला बिगाठी
āhēva maraṇācī mājhyā gaḷyāta sarī
dīra āhē khāndakarī kantha kāḍhīlā bigāṭhī

✎ Death as an Ahev* woman is a matter of pride for me, like wearing a gold chain
Brother-in-law is the pall-bearer, husband carries Bigathi*
▷ (आहेव)(मरणाची) my (गळ्यात)(सरी)
▷ (दीर)(आहे)(खांदकरी)(कंथ)(काढीला)(बिगाठी)
