In Muslim families the parents seek a suitable
bride for their sons. In this song, a confident
father sits in his courtyard, inviting the gardener's
wife and the tailor to set a price for the bridegroom's
sehra and joda (flower-string and clothes).
Finally, the father asks the bride's father
what meher (price) he wants for the daughter
to be given to his son. This song is also from
Patna.
