'बेटा तेरी निरमलां झूठी'-हरयाणवी लोकगीत जकड़ी Jakari No: 184: Beta Teri Nirmala Jhoothi

'Beta Teri Nirmala Jhoothi" is a particular kind of Jakari folk song. Unlike usual Jakari song, herein the persona is self-reflexive: She analyses her own behaviour in a critical way. She admits to her own slyness on a particular occasion when she fails to reach the fields with her husband's mid-day meal. I put this song in the sub-genre of Jakari songs--'Self-analytical Jakari'. This Jakari lies documented at number 184 in my book "Jakari: Haryanvi mahialon Ke Sarv-Sulabh Lok Geet".
