Kehi Mitho Baat Gara

Kehi Mitho Baat Gara

Video: (removed) Lyrics

Kehi mitho baata gara, raata tyasai dhalkindai chha – 2
Bhare pheri eakanta ma, runu ta chandai chha
Kehi mitho baata gara, raata tyasai dhalkindai chha

Ramailo kura gara, sapana ko kura gara – 2
Sanga sangai bitayeko samjhana ko kura gara
Samjhana ko kura gara
Dukha chhoda, dukha lai ta jindagani chandai chha
Bhare pheri eakanta ma, runu ta chandai chha
Kehi mitho baata gara, raata tyasai dhalkindai chha

Aau naachaun andhayro ma, junkiri naache jastai – 2
Batasama udun aaja, simalako bhuwa jastai
Simalako bhuwa jastai
Kehi kadam saatha hindau, chhutinu ta chandai chha
Bhare pheri eakanta ma, runu ta chandai chha
Kehi mitho baata gara, raata tyasai dhalkindai chha
