Description: This song is never sung at public celebratory gatherings, as relatives might be present and it is taboo to sing such songs in the presence of relatives. Such songs are sung when peers, typically youths, gather outside the village.
The lyric of this song aims to woo a listener. A male usually sings it to a female, but females may also sing it to males.
