Rajsthani Bhajan- Nani Bai ka mayro - aaja aaja re sawariya lyrics

Nani Bai ka mayro - aaja aaja re sawariya lyrics


Jai Shri Krishna,

Nani Bai was daughter of Narsi bhakt. Narsi bhakt ji were devotee of Lord Krishna(thakur ji).
Narsi Bhakt ji were not economically strong and used to be engaged in devotion of Thakur ji.

‘Mayro’, or the independent word ‘mayra’ represents a Rajasthani (related to the Indian State of Rajasthan) tradition, when a boy/girl is married, a set of gifts (anything like clothes/ornaments/ etc., according to their economic capability) from his/her mother’s house are sent for each member of the other family (in which he/she got married)


Nani bai ro mayro (“The mayra of Nani bai”) is a story in Rajasthan where this girl named Nani bai is married, but her family cannot afford the mayra at all, and she has to face big taunts due to that. But she was a great devotee of Lord Krishna, and thus kept on praying to him to resolve her problems. The story says listening to her devotion and honest prayers, Lord Krishna himself comes to earth in a disguised (human) form, and helps her fulfill her wish so that her marital home gets a big mayra :).


Aaja aaja re sawariya lyrics-


Its a very beautiful bhajan.
This bhajan is in Rajsthani language, I have tried to write it down with the help of someone else.
Please point if any mistake is there.

आजा आजा रे साँवरिया ,
चीर लंघजा रे साँवरिया ,
भरजा मायरो, हो भरजा मायरो ।

बिन मायड़ी डाबड़ी रे, ना माँ जायो बीर,
मयड़े री बेला माने , कौन उड़ावे चीर,
धीर बांधाजा रे साँवरिया, हिवडे लगाजा रे साँवरिया,
भरजा मायरो, हो भरजा मायरो।।

सास, ननद , देवर ना रानो मैना देवे साथ,
बाबुल थारो लियाए मायरो , भरसे इब की भात,
बात निभाजा रे साँवरिया, लाज बचाजा रे साँवरिया,
भरजा मायरो, हो भरजा मायरो।।

नरसी जी री लाड़ली रे,  आंसू ना ढलकावे,
हिवड़ो उमड़े आवे मायरो, धीरज छूटो जावे,
आवे याद मायड़ साँवरिया , बिलख यु जावड साँवरिया,
भरजा मायरो, हो भरजा मायरो।।

बाबुल मारो ढोलों- ढालो, गिरधर रा गुण गावे,
नगरी रा सब लोग मसखरा, मारी हंसी उड़ावे,
भावे ना माने साँवरिया , ताई कवा ताने साँवरिया ,
भरजा मायरो, हो भरजा मायरो।।
