120 Sohal khabariii sun paen
Miyan ki gaian le churaen.
Ab kyS, Bidhna ne bant banai
gaian le j^ve.
Khara Nanda pachtave,
125 Apne ji men ghusse kMve
Aur kuchh kaha na j§,ve.
Yeh kya karta hai khel Ilahi
Bole Nanda to ghumir,
"Suno Bhaij turn Ahir;
130 Dil men bandlio apne dhir
Yad karo Gajan turn pir.
Jake kamar pur karo, Bhai !
Pai gwalan ne khabar.
Sab mil bandhe kamar,
135 Chhaka Sohal ke dagar.
" Ab tain javega kidhar
Tain ne Bale sang daga kamai."

" Gajan banre ko bulao :
Ean men Ghosi hai Ahir,
Dil men sahwara Gajan pir ;
150 Mareh khabaraura tir,
Barga bhari pare bhir :
Gwalah ne jalim mar machae.
Raja Sohal hai be-pir,
