बाजली तेरी झांवरी

बाजली तेरी झांवरी छमाछम . ओ हो
बिगरैली खुट्यु की भग्यानी , बाजली तेरी झांवरी छमाछम . ओ हो
गोरी मुखडि मा घूंगटि खैन्चिक खिच हंसदी तू ,
अनार मेली सि दान्तुडी दिखांदी तू
कराळी आंख्युंन अगाडी हेरदी, पिछाड़ी देखदी
लटूली फुफतैकी गुस्सा मा ठम ठम जब हिटदि
तब भग्यानी बाजली तेरी झांवरी छमाछम
घसेरयुं दगडि घासौ जांदी तू उकाळी उंदारि
बूण घरसारी रसीला गीतुंन बण रस्यांदा
कमर पैलुड़ी धोती फिलोरी मा , छुणक्याळी दाथुड़ी
साजली ह्त्युं मां
छुण छुण छुक छुक छुण छुण छुक छुक जब घास काटदी
तब भग्यानी बाजली तेरी हात्युं की चूड़ी छमाछम
सेलुंग डाळी सि गात की छडछड़ी , हुडकि सि तिगुड़ी
धुंवा सि हम्प्ली पाणी सि पथळी
चौंठी मा तिल , टिकुली , बिंदुली तेरी जनु
धौळी को फाट
पाणी को नौळी , रूम झूम , ठुम ठुम जब हिटदी
तब भग्यानी बाजली तेरी झांवरी छमाछम

Your anklets make chhamchham sound , O ho
O beauty of beautiful foot, your anklet will make chhamachham sound
When you smile Khich and show your beautiful face from ghungat
When you show your teeth as pomegranate
When you watch in front and back by your eyes
When you walk Tham Tham in rage by scattering your hair
Your anklet will make ‘chhamchham’ sound
When you go to take grass in jungle with your friends
The jungle become enjoyable by your songs
On that time it is your beauty which attracts the most
A rope on your waist, Dhoti above ankle, scythe, all makes you more attractive
You are high and slim as Selang tree, weightless as smoke, thin as water and your waist is thin as Hudkee
A mol on your chin , bindi on your forehead and Mang is flat as Gganga , all makes you attractive
You satisfy as the source of water when you walk Tham tham …..
Your anklets make chhamchham sound.

Ghasiyari dance song is also reflection of the society and creates enjoyment for the working people and audience too
Ghasiyari songs are source of providing strength to people doing their own hard works for themselves are many times the social works a cutting wood for a marriage etc
Ghasiayri songs are the ways of expressing the sentiments of hard works and working conditions

Saraun /Chholia Nritygeet : A Garhwali-Kumauni Sword Dance Song Style for Battle Winning

Bhishma Kukreti
(Garhwali Folk Dance songs, Kumauni Folk Dance Songs, Himalayan Folk Dance Songs)

Saraun is a sword dance song of Garhwal for expressing the joy and happiness after winning war or battle by kings in old age. Today, the people do the dance and sing ‘Saraun’ song in marriage procession.
In Saraun and Talwar nrity geet (dance song) and Saraun nrity geet , the dancers do show sword and shiled game . However, the difference between Saraun and Talwar dance song is that Talwar dance is performed as the battle happening and in Saraun, the sword-shield plays are performed through dance as if the army has won the battle. Talwar dance is related to battle and Saraun is abot winning the war or battle. Both the dance and song are related to chivalry rapture.
Dr Shiva Nand Nautiyal mentions the origin of Saraun dance and song that when kings used to win the battle, their army used to come back to capital with dancing and singing the joyful song and used to act the plays by showing sword and shield mock games. The songs were usually, about praising the king and his army. Whenever, in the battle, there used to be a hero soldier, the singers used to sing praise song about the hero soldier.
Dr Shiva Nand Nautiyal also mentions that many times, the king used to go for kidnapping a girl with his army and at that time, the dance song used to be Talwar dance and song with red flag in front of procession and white flag in the last. When the king used to come with his bride (through kidnapping) , the dance and song used to be Saraun dance and song with white flag in front and red flag at last.
These days, the tradition is regular in marriage of Rajputs that they do perform Saraun dance and song in their marriage procession.
The dance is very agile and enthusiastic. The act of performing dance with swords and shields by dancers create a bravery sense within audience. The emotions of Saraun dance songs are –zeal, anger, envy, intoxication, recollection, joy, agitation, arrogance, awakening, indignation, violence, resolution, deliberation, thrill, and mostly, the winning spirit.
An example of Saraun song is as :

एक सिंग रण वण
एक सिंग गाई का
एक सिंग माधो सिंग
हौर सिग काईका

सरुली सरपट जन्दरी ल्हें दे

बौछड़ो नृत्यगीत

मसुराळी आँखी चलौन्दी मेरी दौंता कथैं गे
दाथुड़ी का छुणका बजौन्दी जब गौं का उथैं गे
दौंता का आंख्युं मा क्या जादू भर्युं च
कनी टमकांदी आँखी नजरूंकु मौक़ा जथैं रै
दौंता की स्या कमरी जनि कुमाळी सी ठाण
जैका जाली दौंता वैन सट सूकी जाण
दौंता की मुखडी मा जनि तस्बीर टंगीं च
दौंता की मायान सरा दुन्या रंगीं च
दौंता - की सी मुखडी तस्बीर मा नी च
सुकली ढाडयूँ को भलो निक्साट बतोंदे
दौंता खडी होंदी जनी धार मा सी गैणी
पालिँगा सी डाळी हलै जांदी बथौं लै
Where has twinkling her eyes my Daunta gone ?
She gone sounding the small bells of scythe
Oh! There is immense attraction on the eyes of Daunta!
Her twinkling eyes are gorgeous
The waist of Daunta is flexible as Kumali’s beauty
That who would marry Daunta will die by her beauty
The beauty of Daunta is on everybody ‘s eye
Everybody is colored on the love of Daunta
Her beauty can’t come on her photo or shade
The teeth of Daunta are very bright and glittering
Daunta is as start twinkling on a hill
She is flexible as a spinach plant waves

The Bachhaudo बौछड़ो नृत्यगीत is very agile, pleasure some, attractive and free from any strict dance rules. The Hudkya (drum player, usually Badi) sings the song and play the small drum Hudka .

Bhishma Kukreti
Garhwali folk song expert Dr Govind Chatak mentions that Bajuband Nritygeet is dialogue oriented folk dance style of Ravai-Jaunpur regions of Garhwal and is called ‘Nyoli’ in Kumaun region as in both cases, the songs are love oriented songs and dances are very absorbing.
The song starts from unknown female, male and always male starts the poetic dialogue and female provides answer for the sentence of male singer. The male ask the love from the female with so many promises or luring . The dialogues are having figure of speeches and are symbolic too. The wordings of Bahuband songs and Nyoli songs are absorbing that the audience enjoys the images created by the wordings. Dr Nautiyal states that the dances of Bajuband are very agile, absorbing and joyful that dancers and audience become one in mind.
Undoubtedly, agility, joy, smile, zeal, artificial anger, surprise, sometimes fear, thrill, romance, tears, change of complexions, apprehensions, envy, intoxication, anxiety, delusion, affection, affiliations, recollection, bashfulness, agitation, stupor, gentle criticism, arrogance, eagerness, dejection, awakening, dreaming, resolution, insanity, types of emotions are found in Bajuband and Nyoli dance songs .Imagination of song creator is always
The dance is performed by a male and a female or may be group dance. However, the singers are usually two singers to differentiate the male dialogues and female dialogues of the Bajuband song
The following song is one of the popular song of Bajuband dance song style:

बाजूबंद नृत्यगीत
फूली जाली जई
बांज कटदरी कै गौं की छई ?
बाबला की कुची
कै बि गौं की होली तू करदू पूछी ?
गंज्यल़ा की गांज
सरकारी जंगळ क्योकि काटदी बांज
थकुला थरी
रजा कैकु मोरे बंद जंगळ करी
धमकालू घण
तू इनी जाणदी छई त केकु आई बण
सरकाई त सुई
सैसरियों को मरे भैंसी धरिन दुई
झगुली को मैल
मै इन पुछ्दु छोरी , कुछ तेरी गैल
साग लाइ कोई
ईश्वर भग्यान कुई इकल्वस्या न होई
पाणी का कुल़ा
मै काटल़ू बांज गेल्या तू बांधली पूल़ा
डाल़ा पकी बेर
तू लगान्दी वार पार मै हुन्दी अबेर
ग्युं जौ की सार
तरुणी जवानी तेरी प्यारी , द्वी दिन की बार
स्यूं लाई फौन्दा
बिदेशी भौरा कबि अपणा नी होंदा
रोटी को नरम
उंड कर हाती दांई देऊ दिउलो धरम
चांदी का बटण
माया लाणी सौंगी निमौणी कठण
थोड़ी लाया छमा
डालि त्वेन लाण परोसणी मेरो जुम्मा
पोस्तु की फीम
दुपट्टा बेमान होंदु टोपी लांदु नीम
बाखरा की मासु
जु रचलू धोका , तैकी जवानी को धोका
हीरू पीस्यो जीरू
इनी लाणी माया जु पाणी नि छीरु
लंग लंगी साई
तेरी मेरी माया छोरी जुग जुग ताई
गौड़ी नौ छ बीजा
गंगा जी को ठंडो पाणी छमट्योंन पीजा
हरयाँ जौ का कीस
ज्यूँ ज्यूँ ठनडो पाणी त्यूँ त्यूँ बिंडी तीस
पितळ की संगळ
कित लौण मूंगमाल़ा कित रौण खंकळ
घोड़ी को कमर
त्वे जौंला भाग होंदा , ह्व़े जांदू अमर
डाल़ा घूरे गूणी
बिधाता की लिखी गेल्या अटल होणी
गौड़ी को मखन
दही होंदु बांटी खांदु , भाग कु क्या कन
सग्वाड़ी को साग
मनखी जौंळी माया , पुरुष जौंल़ा भाग

At the end the song turns towards idealistic, inspirational and philosophical too

Bau Sarela Nritygeet : A Love Oriented Garhwali Folk Dance-Song Style –Part 1

Bhishma Kukreti
Bau Sarela is purely love rapture oriented folk dance s-song style of Garhwal. Bau (wife of elder brother ) is symbol of love in these folk songs. These love songs are full of romance, humour, smile, pleasure, description of beuty of female and manhood of male. There were instances when the songs were found erotic too.
Now days, mostly, the Bau Sarela songs are sung and dance is performed in fair/ Mela. Bau Sarela is made of two words, Bau means – wife of elder brother and Sarela means mind. It means there is attraction for Bau.
There are two types of drama performances in the dance song sequence of Bau Sarela – face expression by actors /dancers and expression by words
Bau Sarela songs are only for showing physical beauty, physical attraction, and union of lovers.
The dances and subjects are as of Bajuband dance sequences:

'बौ सरेला' का माधुर्यपूर्ण लोक गीत

चली आ ये बौ
बिनसर को मेला आ , चली आ ये बौ
बांज की अछ्याणी मि पैलि जौंलू बौ , तू म्यार पैर पछ्याणी
हल्दी का गूंट
देश पोड़ी जौंला , बल्दू जसी जूंट
झगुली झूमर
चार दिनूँ रौंद बौ या
जवानी की ऊमर...
