निम्बुवा तले डोला रख दे मुसाफिर
आई सावन की बहार रे~!~

A girl who is getting married and going in the dola, want to play (swing under tree) in the rain when she see it raining on the way.. asking kahaars to stop the dola..

A beautiful heartfelt rendering of a life unfulfilled by Sudha Malhotra in this non film number, featured in 1960s brilliant compilation of HMV titled Varsha Ritu.. I first heard it on Vividh Bharti, and almost fallen in love, as despite the composition based on a very popular Ab ke baras, the song had so much else to offer in terms of musical value.. specially lyrics.. and the focus on child marriages in the age to play with dolls.. and the pain of not living the childhood..

अपने महल में मैं झूला झूलत थी
सैय्यां के आये कहार रे
ऐ ऋरी सखी झूला झूलने ना पाई
ले चले डोलिया कहार रे

अपने महल में मैं गुड़िया खेलत थी
गुड़िया खेलत थी
सैय्यां के आये कहार रे
ऐ री सखी गुड़िया खेलहुँ ना पाई
ले चले डोलिया कहार रे

निम्बुवा तले डोला रख दे मुसाफिर
आई सावन की बहार रे~!~
