Oh! My sole Betrayer!

-



I trusted you more than self,
I believed you more than self,
I considered you more than self,
You betrayed me oh! Betrayer!

I look around, find every one betraying.
Betraying each other, betraying each other.

A cow that ran to rescue herself,
From wolf fell into the hands of a butcher,
Oh! Butcher the betrayer!

I look around, find every one betraying.
Betraying each other, betraying each other.

Ran to save myself from thunder,
Took shelter under a ruin temple,
Temple collapsed upon,
Oh! Temple the betrayer!

I look around, find every one betraying.
Betraying each other, betraying each other.

In a boat rowing to the other side of the shore,
Wild wind blowing high,
Feared and held boat man,
He shook his hand and I fell in the water,
Oh! Boatman the betrayer!

I look around, find every one betraying.
Betraying each other, betraying each other

Today, this word is commonly used in Hindi, Marathi, Kannada and Urdu. Again, some have researched the origin of the word Tamasha to Turkish langaugeand has entered into urdu and finally borrowed from Urdu to Marathi. In Marathi the word Tamasha means 'A mixtures of specialized performances like dance, music, different enactements or roles by women or girls, participation of women, and singing lavanis'. I wonder how Persian or Turkish languages have influence Marathi. This folk art from is so very deep rooted in rural Maharashtra for more than eight-nine centuries that it is quite difficult to say when this Tamasha was first staged. This art form is cal
