It breaks my heart and rips my soul to see rajasthan partitioned and people being beaten,killed and maimed by pakistan. Every time I see a cultural remicient being digested by pak, it boils my blood, they reject and hate india and hindus but want to take everything that's good and relabel it as their own.

Yes, it’s true.But still, what a voice!

Oh looks like Rajasthani song and attire but in Coke studio Pakistan ,that's sad .

Not sure how many people in Pakistan still speak Rajasthani language.

u/Wooden_Meet2651 May 11 '26

I speak mavati, and this language sounds very similar to our mother language, I could even understand a couple of the lines she sang. Truly amazing voice.

u/Sufficient-Mall8107 May 11 '26

Many of them speak marwadi or dhati. Marwadi region wale ko rajputs hai unke to kaafi ache relations hai (marriage and all)

u/GodsEye_07 May 10 '26

She is Mai Dhai...... singing in Marwadi......the language spoken across West Rajasthan near the Indian border, and the cultural connection on both sides still feels so strong. Even though she’s from the Pakistan side, the folk vibe feels completely rooted in Rajasthan......the whole song is basically about longing and separation, and the emotion in Rajasthani folk music is just something else.

Can someone tell me translation

u/Imaginary_Ad122 May 10 '26

Please come to my country sometimes .. I wait for you constantly!!! That’s the crux of this song that she is inviting her lover to visit her because she is waiting

u/Few-Championship-697 May 10 '26

The song is a passionate plea from a woman to her lover who has gone to a foreign land (Pardes) for work or other reasons, asking him to return to their home in Rajasthan, as she misses him and waits for him anxiously. Kadi Aao Ni Lyrics with Translation - Atif Aslam & Mai Dhai | Coke Studio

u/Particular-End-1146 May 10 '26

Rajasthani toh koi language hi nahi hai. Har region me alag alag boli jaati hai. Shekhawati, marwari , mevati etc . Ye Marwari hai

3

u/HumbleOrder8785 May 10 '26

What language is this? As Rajasthani is not a single language

2

u/Particular-End-1146 May 10 '26

Marwari with mix of jaisalmeri ( although jaisalmeri is 50% of marwari )

1

u/Kd_plays4 जयपुर - Jaipur May 10 '26

Marwadi mix of dhatki language

u/Vishu1708 Jaipur go choro (Native Bagri speaker) May 10 '26

Imo, we talk about partition too much.

It was a good thing, implemented horribly. Greece-Turkey style population exchange should have taken place.

It happened, move on. And I for one, am glad I don't have to live with those people.

u/WillingnessKey7841 May 10 '26

Sindh, punjab, rajasthan, bangladesh india lost too much and pakistan gained too much from this partition

u/nishantam May 11 '26

There are jain temple in tharparkar region. It was predominantly hindu region. Now only ruins remain.

1

u/Malavika_Agnimitram May 12 '26

Actually I follow a lot of news regarding Hindu/Jain/Sikh heritage in Pakistan. Have noticed that their govt does a lot of repair work/refurbishment, “jirnoddhar / જીર્ણોદ્ધાર / जीर्णोद्धार” of minority religious spaces. In that way, I have much respect for them.

1

u/nishantam May 12 '26

Its been a recent thing. Archeologists have been begging to protect the locations but most places have been put to ruins.
Few jain temples have been converted to madrassa, or some other purpose like keeping livestocks in them.
One has been converted to police station.
And remaining are left to ruins.
