and my silk veshti (traditional waist wrap) trembles with excitement,
after I put out the lamp,
we will study our bedroom lessons!

My cousin reached womanhood,
and five or six years have already passed.

the whole village is buzzing with talk!
Oh, once I charm and win her over,
with my arm around her waist,
girl, I will ride all around town,
carrying you high on my buffalo!

The man has arrived to tie the thaali (sacred wedding thread)!
