One song includes the lyrics: Wehareon wa Biyamow / Neowrez Sowltan Biyamow Mejeda Hadein She Dusston re / Gol Biyamow Goleston rewhich translates as: Feel the wind of spring / Feel the entrance of Neowrez Congratulate your friends / Flower comes to floweringOn the thirteenth day of spring, women of each village, with their relatives and friends from neighbouring villages, gather to spend time and have fun together.

Elsewhere in the village, men hold a wrestling competition that lasts from morning until evening.
