ਤੀਆਂ ਦਾ ਤਿਉਹਾਰ Summary

ਤੀਆਂ ਦਾ ਤਿਉਹਾਰ ਪਾਠ ਦਾ ਸਾਰ

ਤੀਆਂ ਦਾ ਤਿਉਹਾਰ ਇਕ ਖੁਸ਼ੀਆਂ ਭਰਿਆ ਤਿਉਹਾਰ ਹੈ ਤੇ ਇਹ ਸਾਉਣ ਮਹੀਨੇ ਦੇ ਆਰੰਭ ਨਾਲ ਸ਼ੁਰੂ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ । ਇਸ ਕਰਕੇ ਇਸ ਨੂੰ “ਸਾਵਿਆ ਦਾ ਤਿਉਹਾਰ’ ਵੀ ਆਖਿਆ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ, ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਬਰਸਾਤ ਕਾਰਨ ਇਸ ਮਹੀਨੇ ਧਰਤੀ ਸਾਵੇ ਰੰਗ ਦਾ ਵੇਸ ਧਾਰਨ ਕਰਦੀ ਹੈ । ਪੰਜਾਬ ਦੇ ਹਰ ਪਿੰਡ ਵਿਚ ਤੀਆਂ ਦਾ ਤਿਉਹਾਰ ਬੜੀਆਂ ਰੀਝਾਂ ਨਾਲ ਮਨਾਇਆ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ । ਜੇਠ-ਹਾੜ੍ਹ ਦੀਆਂ ਧੁੱਪਾਂ ਕਾਰਨ ਸੜਦੀ-ਬਲਦੀ ਧਰਤੀ ਨੂੰ ਸਾਉਣ ਦੇ ਮੀਂਹ ਦੀਆਂ ਫੁਹਾਰਾਂ ਠੰਢਾ ਕਰਦੀਆਂ ਹਨ ਤੇ ਉਹ ਹਰੀ-ਭਰੀ ਹੋ ਜਾਂਦੀ ਹੈ । ਤੀਆਂ ਮੁੱਖ ਤੌਰ ‘ਤੇ ਕੁੜੀਆਂ ਦਾ ਤਿਉਹਾਰ ਹੈ।

ਤੀਆਂ ਵਿਚ ਗਿੱਧੇ ਦਾ ਖੂਬ ਰੰਗ ਬੰਨ੍ਹਿਆ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ । ਕੁੜੀਆਂ ਇਕ-ਦੂਜੇ ਤੋਂ ਵਧ-ਚੜ੍ਹ ਕੇ ਬੋਲੀਆਂ ਪਾਉਂਦੀਆਂ ਹਨ ਤੇ ਬੋਲੀ ਟੁੱਟਣ ਨਹੀਂ ਦਿੱਤੀ ਜਾਂਦੀ । ਇਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਬੋਲੀਆਂ ਵਿਚ ਜ਼ਿੰਦਗੀ ਦੇ ਸਾਰੇ ਰੰਗ ਸਮਾਏ ਹੁੰਦੇ ਹਨ । ਨੱਚਦੀਆਂ ਕੁੜੀਆਂ ਮੀਂਹ ਤੇ ਛਰਾਟਿਆਂ ਦੀ ਪਰਵਾਹ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰਦੀਆਂ । ਉਹ ਗਾਉਂਦੀਆਂ ਹਨ ਨਿੱਕੀ ਨਿੱਕੀ ਕਣੀ ਦਾ ਮੀਂਹ ਵਰਸੇਂਦਾ, ਠੰਢੀਆਂ ਪੈਣ ਫੁਹਾਰਾਂ । ਨੱਚ ਲੈ ਮੋਰਨੀਏ, | ਪੰਜ ਪਤਾਸੇ ਵਾਰਾਂ ।

ਨੱਚ ਲੈ ਮੋਰਨੀਏ । ਗਿੱਧੇ ਤੋਂ ਇਲਾਵਾ ਪੀਂਘਾਂ ਝੂਟਣ ਦਾ ਵੱਖਰਾ ਹੀ ਆਨੰਦ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ । ਕੁੜੀਆਂ ਇਕ-ਦੂਜੀ ਤੋਂ ਵਧ ਕੇ ਪੀਂਘਾਂ ਚੜ੍ਹਾਉਂਦੀਆਂ ਹਨ | ਪੀਂਘਾਂ ਝੂਟਦੀਆਂ ਦੇ ਗਹਿਣਿਆਂ ਦੀ ਛਣਕਾਹਟ ਅਨੋਖਾ ਰੰਗ ਬੰਨ੍ਹਦੀ ਹੈ । ਅੰਤ ਤੀਆਂ ਦੇ ਵਿਦਾ ਹੋਣ ਦਾ ਦਿਨ ਆ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ । ਇਸ ਦਿਨ ਮੇਲੇ ਵਰਗੀ ਰੌਣਕ ਹੁੰਦੀ ਹੈ । ਇਕ ਕੁੜੀ ਨੂੰ ਲਾੜਾ ਅਤੇ ਦੂਜੀ ਨੂੰ ਲਾੜੀ ਬਣਾ ਕੇ ਸਾਰੀਆਂ ਰਸਮਾਂ ਕਰ ਕੇ ਵਿਆਹ ਕੀਤਾ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ । ਕੁੜੀਆਂ ਮੂੰਹ ਨਾਲ ਵਾਜੇ ਵਜਾਉਂਦੀਆਂ ਹਨ ਤੇ ਠੀਕਰੀਆਂ ਦੀ ਸੋਟ ਕੀਤੀ ਜਾਂਦੀ ਹੈ । ਜੰਵ ਦੀ ਵਿਦਾਇਗੀ ਵੇਲੇ ਕੁੜੀਆਂ ਦੀ ਇਕ ਟੋਲੀ ਜੰਝ ਖੋਂਹਦੀ ਹੈ । ਡੋਲਾ ਖੋਹਣਾ ਜਾਂ ਲੁੱਟ ਮਚਾਉਣੀ ਤੀਆਂ ਦੀ ਅੰਤਿਮ ਰਸਮ ਹੈ ।

ਇਸ ਪਿੱਛੋਂ ਕੁੜੀਆਂ ਗਾਉਂਦੀਆਂ ਹੋਈਆਂ ਤੇ ਆਪਣੇ ਪੇਕੇ ਪਿੰਡ ਨੂੰ ਅਸੀਸਾਂ ਦਿੰਦੀਆਂ ਘਰਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਤੁਰ ਪੈਂਦੀਆਂ ਹਨ । ‘ਸੁੱਖ ਵਸਦੀ ਬਾਬਾ ਜੀ ਥੋਡੀ ਨਗਰੀ, ਜੀ ਸੁਖ ਵਸਦੀ ਇਸ ਪ੍ਰਕਾਰ ਤੀਆਂ ਦਾ ਇਹ ਤਿਉਹਾਰ ਹਰ ਸਾਲ ਹਾਸੇ-ਖੇੜੇ ਵੰਡਦਾ ਹੈ । ਇਹ ਤਿਉਹਾਰ ਵਰਖਾ ਰੁੱਤ ਕਾਰਨ ਮੌਲੀ ਹੋਈ ਧਰਤੀ ਦੇ ਪ੍ਰਭਾਵ ਹੇਠ ਮਨੁੱਖ ਦੇ ਛਲਕਦੇ ਭਾਵਾਂ ਦਾ ਪ੍ਰਗਟਾਵਾ ਹੈ । ਇਸ ਤਿਉਹਾਰ ਵਿਚ ਆਪਸੀ ਪਿਆਰ ਤੇ ਸਾਂਝਾਂ ਹੋਰ ਪੱਕੀਆਂ ਹੁੰਦੀਆਂ ਹਨ ।
