Mae ni meriye

Mai ne meriye
Jammue di raahe chamba kinni durr
Mai ne meriye
Jammuue di raahe chamba kinni durr

O Shimle ni vasna, Sapatue ni vasna
Shimle ni vasna, Sapatue ni vasna
Chambe jaana zarur
Chambe jaana zarur
Mai ne meriye
Jammue di raahe chamba kinni k dur

O laaiya mohabbata durr daraje
O laaiya mohabbata durr daraje
Aankhiyan to hoya kasoor
Aankhiyan to hoya kasoor
Mai ne meriye
Jammue di raahe chamba kinni k durr

O mein ta mahi de watna nu jaasan
O mein ta mahi de watna nu jaasan
Ho meri aankhiyan darur
Ho meri aankhiyan darur
Mai ne meriye
Jammue di raahe chamba kitnik durr
Chamba kitnik durr

O Shimle ni vasna, Kasauli ni vasna
Shimle ni vasna, Kasauli ni vasna
Chambe jaana zarur
Chambe jaana zarur
Chambe jaana zarur
Chambe jaana zarur

Jammue di rahe   Sung by folk singer Pushplata

In many newer versions it is mentioned as 'shimle di raahe', but that is not the actual version.

Before being under the british rule Shimla was under the rule of Gurkhas upto 1819. And shimla can be seen more as a frontier region rather than a cultural centre, a status which it acquired later.

But that's the beauty of folk music. It adapts according to culture and time.

This is a folk song reflecting feelings of a lover in the memory of her beloved who is a serving soldier in a far off land and who can not come back to his home to meet her so frequently. The song is playful yet there is an underlying emotion of pain caused by separation. 

Enjoy the song in Lata Mangeshkar's melodious voice.
