Baal Kaanda
26 - Siva's peculiar marriage procession and preparations for the wedding (undertaken by the other party)
Chhands
tana chāra byāla kapāla bhūṣana nagana jaṭila bhayaṃkarā.
saomga bhūta prēta pisāca jōgini bikaṭa mukha rajanīcarā..
jō jiata rahihi barāta dēkhata punya baḍa tēhi kara sahī.
dēkhihi sō umā bibāhu ghara ghara bāta asi larikanha kahī..
Description
His body is smeared with ashes and adorned with serpents and skulls. He is naked, has matted hair on his head and is dreadful to look at. He is accompanied by ghosts and evil spirits, goblins and fairies and demons with a frightful countenance. He who survives on seeing the bridegrooms procession is a man of great luck indeed and he alone will witness the wedding of Um. These were the words uttered by the children from house to house.
