Well, this one is a bit confusing, as tootak tootak tootiyaan (or tutak tutak tutiyan) sounds like 'you look at the berry tree,' but then as per a couple of interviews of Malkit Singh, the maker of the song, it was just that he wanted some random words for dance music as it's quite loved in England where he lives, and he chose tutak tutak tutiyaan for he could easily sing that and the public could always respond with Haii/Hey Jamalo.
So, while these words are talking about the mulberry tree (and there is another reference in the next line, aaja tootan waale kuh te — come to the well by the mulberry tree), they really aren't for thinking about, but simply words to dance on.
