◆ Sung while going to the cemetry, carrying the bier.

(Content of Song)
“One who was fine until yesterday has died, sound of crying is heard
In a moment one leaves this world and goes to the next one
The old men used to say, there is no one who does not die
If you go now, when will you be back? Tell me at least, the day you'll be back”
