Rawjaw Parba

Odisha, the land of Lord Jagannath and Mother Bhudevi, 

Brings Raw jaw parba with great ecstasy. 

Stopping work from plucking flowers to plowing, 

The land undergoes through regeneration.

Taking rest from household work, unmarried girls 

And women celebrate Pahili Rawjaw, Mthuna Sankranti, 

Basi Raja and Vasumati Snan, 

Wearing new clothes, 

Putting awlata on their feet. 

Sitting on the swing and eating delicious food, 

They usher the rainy season to come and make everyone's life happy and prosperous.

Believing that Bhudevi undergoes menstruation for the first three days 

And is given ceremonial bath on the fourth day, 

Rawjaw, highlights women's life, 

Never consider it a taboo, 

Teaching everyone, 

How a woman brings happiness 

And prosperity 

Bringing the rain of love and life.
