पाठवणी करा सया निघाल्या सासुरा
सया निघाल्या सासुरा
आला आला वारा संगे पावसाच्या धारा
पाठवणी करा सया निघाल्या सासुरा
सया निघाल्या सासुरा
आला आला वारा संगे पावसाच्या धारा
पाठवणी करा सया निघाल्या सासुरा
आला आला वारा
नव्या नवतीचं बाई लकाकतं रूप
नव्या नवतीचं बाई लकाकतं रूप
माखलं ग ऊन जणू हळदीचा लेप
माखलं ग ऊन जणू हळदीचा लेप
ओठी हसू पापणीत आसवांचा झरा
आला आला वारा संगे पावसाच्या धारा
पाठवणी करा सया निघाल्या सासुरा
सया निघाल्या सासुरा
आला आला वारा
आजवरी यांना किती जपलं जपलं
काळजाचं पानी किती शिपलं शिपलं
आजवरी यांना किती जपलं जपलं
आजवरी यांना किती जपलं जपलं
काळजाचं पानी किती शिपलं शिपलं
चेतवून प्राण यांना दिला ग उबारा
