Bandra Festak Feast song

Updated: Oct 12


Bandra Festak

Bandra Festak - fun and humorous song, Nothing to do with the Mount Mary's Feast Mass or the Church Service but just loitering around Feast Fair and ending up winning a love of a lovely Bandra damsel in a "Throw-A -Ring Stall, when he was transfixed and threw the ring instead, on her mound of hair, raised like a mountain top. It was a bullseye !!!

How could he miss? " The Lucky Fella"

Bandra festak gelom hanv tea nimnnea Aitara

I had gone to Bandra feast in the last Sunday

Ferien bonvtam-bonvtam horam zait ailim bara

I was roaming around the Feast Fair and

Chonnekaram mhunnot ‘Bab gorom chonnem vora’

the Chana (chickpeas) vendors " Sir, please buy warm Chanas"

Chonnem khavnk urlom thuimsor pavlonam ghara

I remained there eating Chana's, did not reach home


Ha! Ha! Vah, vah, vah – lok ferien bonvta ........2

ha ha vah vah the people roam around the fair

Chevrisam sorpotel, sogllem thuimsor mevta

sausages, sorpotel, you get everything

Merry-Go-Round-ar, chedde-cheddvam gunvta

Merry Go around boys and girls circle around

Luttin kitem poitai, konnui konnak tenkta

in the jostle of crowds, someone leans somebody



Giant Wheel-ar bostolom mhunnon ticket kaddli

I purchased a ticket to sit on the giant Wheel

Moje kuxik tannen eke anttik dhaddli

they sent an Auntie to sit beside me

Voir pavonam fuddem antti fugar zavn roddli

when we reached on top Auntie suffocated and began to cry

‘Oh my God’ mhunnon tinnen veng mhaka marli

screaming " Oh my God" she embraced me hard


Ha, ha! ‘My God, my God’, antti suskar soddi ..................2

Ha ha " My God, my God , Auntie would cry breathless

Uncle below was tense and worried

Beautiful lady, asli itki zaddi

she was quiet beautiful

Little ahead I came across Throw a ring stall

Tea stall-an tim ring-am divnk, sobit cheddum aslem

I threw the ring on her mountain hairstyle


Yeah, yeah! ‘Lucky fellow’ mhunn bobav lokacho..................2

I will never forget Mount Mary's Feast

Chear anneank hanv mog jiklom Bandrachea cheddvacho

for four Annas I won the love of Bandra girl.
