I am craving to know the meaning of the the refrain of the song 'Bol
re Papihara' ..
Bole re papiiharaa papiiharaa
Kit ghan barse , nit man pyaasaa
Nit man pyaasaa, nit man tarase
Bole re...
In particular, the meanings of 'Papihara' (perhaps, a bird that yearns
for her lover), 'Kit' (perhaps, "so much") and 'Nit' (perhaps,
"still"). Note that 'Kit ghan barse' may be 'Nit ghan barse' too ..
Rest of the lyrics are easier to understand. :)
Full (slighly incorrect) lyrics are at:

"papiiharaa" is a variant of "papiihaa" - a kind of cuckoo that is
supposed to feed only on raindrops.
"kit ghan barase" is right - 'kit' is a variant of
'kidhar'/'kahaa.N' (where).
'nit' is a variant of 'nitya' (incessant, eternal).
Warm regards,
