रूप आगलि होली वा धर्मावती राणी,
रूप आगलि होली सेली सीतली।
भूका देखीक वा खाणु नि खांदी
नंगा देखीक वा बस्तर नि लांदी।
जनि छई राणी बल तनि छयो राजा,
दान्यों मा दानी होला बल हरिश्चन्द्र रजा।
रिंगदी डिंड्याळी छै जैकि उड़दी अटारी,
धारु गरुड़े छै जैकी गाडू घटूड़े
ढुंगा जनी धन छयो मेघ जसी मन
गाडू का ढुंग पूजिन राजान , धारु का मशाण
पर राजा का घर बेटा नि जरमे
तब सुमरदो राजा पंचनाम देव,
जरमी गये नौनी एक वैकी दिबतौं का वरन।
भली ह्वे नौनी तेरी राजा जसीली 'जसी ' नौकी।
जोन सी टुकड़ी नौनी , फ्यूंळी सि कोंपळी
मादेवन जन पारबती पाए,
बीरुवा जसी को बाँधणे मलेऊ जसी जोड़ी.......
