Waah waah Katora vatne da,
Shava katora vatne.
Waah waah Katora vatne da,
Shava katora vatne.

How beautiful is the bowl of the auspicious turmeric.

Chah sareya nu malne da
Chah munde da mell kadne da

Everyone wishes to rub the turmeric on the groom's body.
Everyone wishes to make him pure.

Phena nu, pabbhi nu,
Bua nu massi nu.

His sister, his sister in law,
His paternal aunt and his maternal aunt.

Waah waah Katora vatne da,
Shava katora vatne

How beautiful is the bowl of the auspicious turmeric.

Waah waah kinna roop chadeya.
Hanehre wich batey jiha chamkee
Mukhda munde da

Look at the glow on the groom's face,
It is so bright that it shines in the darkness.

Waah waah Katora vatne da,
Shava katora vatne

How beautiful is the bowl of the auspicious turmeric.

Waah waah munde di Maa,
Idhar udhar na lukh jaa.
munda tera ditta chamka
Hun koi shagun toh sanu paa
Aiwehi hath na ghisvayi jaa

Oh, listen the mother of the groom,
Do not even try and hide.
We have made your son now bless us with the gifts.
We haven't rubbed our hands for nothing.

Waah waah Katora vatne da,
Shava katora vatne

How beautiful is the bowl of the auspicious turmeric.

Waah waah Katora vatne da,
Shava katora vatne.

How beautiful is the bowl of the auspicious turmeric.
