Nivan so akhar, khaun gunn

Nivan so akhar, khaun gunn
Jeebha mannya mant
Eh tare bhene wes kar
Taan was aawi kant

English Translation

Humility is the word, forgiveness is the virtue, and sweet speech is the magic mantra. Wear these three robes, O sister, and you will captivate your Husband Lord.
