Chaudhary - Amit Trivedi feat Mame Khan, Coke Studio @ MTV Season 2

In a world where most love stories are about kids in love, this song is different. It's about a man's undying love towards a young girl.

The village Choudhry is a powerful, restrained and successful man who falls in love with a young girl. This song teases those feelings. The feeling of helplessness, of giving into an emotion so strong, that one cannot even dream of fighting it! The lyrics in the song perfectly depict the difference in the lovers, where he is calm & restrained with a strong sense of propriety while she is young, enthusiastic & impulsive. Accompanied by the traditional khartal and sarangi, fused with drums and guitars, this is a completely new take on the Rajasthani folk music.

Lukk - chipp na javo ji , manney deed karavo ji

Context:

A lover telling the beloved what he means to her and how his love has made her very happy
and how his playful love has brought her heart alive.

Meaning of the song:

Lover asks her beloved "Chaudhary" (a title of a man from ethnic clans of Rajasthan/Haryana
who owns lands) to not test her patience anymore, but to meet her soon. As she is desperate
to meet him and show him how happy she is and how his love has become the thread of her
very being. She exultingly compares herself to the light, of the moon, that he is, telling him
that her heart is in a trance, ever since he has come into her life. She says that he has got her
hook, line, and sinker and playfully tells him that she understands all his tricks, as to how he
did that. She lures him to have Daal-Bhaati (a sweet dish) that she has especially prepared for
him, just so that she can see him again. She says that she has filled the dish with lot of Ghee
(butter) to add to the taste, just as his love has beautifully brightened her very being.
