Kumar/Kumari songs are connected with the unmarried boys and girls of Mithila. Parents remain anxious until their children are married, with the greatest concern centering on a daughter’s wedding. This song portrays a father’s state of mind: the daughter says that until she is married, how can her father sleep in peace? Hearing this, the father sets out with his dhoti and umbrella to look for a suitable groom—travelling north, south, to Maghi and Munger—but finds no worthy match. The daughter silently thinks that he should go to Ayodhya, where the right groom is there.
