  There are many folk tales related to attack of Moguls on Uttarakhand. There had been many attacks on Jaunsar Bawar western Indian Kings. The present Natiya Jagar folklore is about great brave (Bhad) of Jaunsar Bawar region and the time seems to be around Aurangzeb (seventeenth century).
  The following stanzas are taken from Natiya Jagar Gatha.

कुमाऊं और गढ़वाल की लोक गाथाएँ/जागर -23  
नतिया जागर गाथा : भडौ , कटकूभड़वळि  या पांवड़ाजागर

(सन्दर्भडा प्रयाग जोशी , कुमाऊं -गढ़वाल की लोक गाथाओं का विवेचनात्मक अध्ययन )

खाओ थो सिपाहियों तुमे राजेरो नूण
फोड़ेसी रे तसीलदा राजेपूत कुंण
मड़े रे मड़ाइये केडी रे मड़ाए
येती आगू हारुल नतीरामेरी आये
आया बल नतीराम मरेली घूम
गज गज माटी उड़ घोड़ रा सूम
आया बल मुगेल बहुता कि थोडा
नौ लाख मुगेल  लाख घोड़ा
बाई बाश घुघुती दाहिनी केराई
एशा जोगा खाशिया देऊ मुगले फेराई
