The Bahlikas (Hindi: बाह्लिक Bāhlika) were the inhabitants of Balikha, mentioned in Atharvaveda, Mahabharata, Ramayana, Puranas, Vartikka of Katyayana, Brhatsamhita, Amarkosha etc. and in the ancient Inscriptions. The other variations of Bahlika are Bahli, Balhika, Vahlika, Valhika, Bahlava, Bahlam/Bahlim, Bahlayana and Bahluva
According to the Bhuvanakosha section of the Puranas, Bahlika was a Janapada located in the Udichya (Uttarapatha) division.
Some hymns of Atharvaveda invoke the fever to go to the Gandharis, Mahavrsas (a tribe of Punjab), Mujavants and, further off, to the Bahlikas. Mujavant is the name of a hill (and a people) located in Hindukush/Pamir.
Atharvaveda-Parisista juxtaposes the Vedic Bahlikas with the Kambojas (i.e. Kamboja-Bahlika--).
Besides Atharvaveda Parisista, several other ancient texts also associate the Bahlikas with the Kambojas.
Kashmir recension of ancient Ramayana has the following reading:
Sanskrit Acharya Kshmendra of Kashmir has rendered the above text into his Ramayana Manjri as follows:
It's a loffer poffer ding dong, bigger than king kong's
Without a doupt, that ain't nothing to discuss about
When I see you my friend you take it in your hand
Do you, like it like I always like it too
When you hold it nice and tight I think the time is right
To quick make up your mind if you wanna be with me tonight
Rising High Rising High let your will fly high
Rising High Rising High let your will fly high
Rising High Rising High let your will fly high
Rising High Rising High let your stick fly high
Ah when you're shaking in your room how to meet this girl real soon
You'd like to think of silly willy how you'd like to do the willy killy
Smooth your chose to let you emos run lose
But the lose girl is gone with her clothes still on
Man it ain't no thing but a chicken wing
Cause when I bust you out will scream and shout
Rising High Rising High let your will fly high
Rising High Rising High let your will fly high
Rising High Rising High let your will fly high
Rising High Rising High let your stick fly high
Cause I'm living for my loffer, I am living for my poffer
I am living for my ding dong I'm living for my King Kong
Say what girlie hot I wanna bust your spot
You say no no way you gotta stop and say
Hey stud crack my nut with your lickory stick
Rise it high make me fly cause you're magic guy
That's why I'm living for my loffer and I'm living fpr my poffer
I am living for my ding dong I am living for my king kong
Loffer di poffer di loffer di poffer di loffer di poffer di ding dong
It's a loffer poffer ding dong bigger than King Kong's
Without a doubt that ain't nothing to discuss about.
And now you hold it nice and tight and now the time is right
Cause you made up your mind that you'll be with me tonight.
