Mahango bho paani sastai bho jiwan
Kathmandu ko dhara jastai bho jiwan
Lakhau man hera aanshu ma dubeka
Akkar mathi ko rastai bho jiwan
Yata din bagchha uta umera dhalchha
Raksi chha sahara mastai bho jiwan
Na pida na khusi adhuro kahani
Musafir jastai ustai bho jiwan
Chari le nagaayeko, bhasha le nachhoyeko
Lakhau alikhit geet haru, mutu mutuka prit haru.
Dhungeyug ni haina sristiko bihani yo
Kabiko kaabya haina, na kathako kahani yo
Chhamera bhetidaina, herera dekhidaina
Lakhau alikhit geet haru, mutu mutuka prit haru.
Kalpana bhete jasto, sapana dekhe jasto
Kaadaa bhitra pani ustai prem katha jaane pachhi
Marubhumi swarga banchha aafnai maanchhe thaane pachhi !
Duniyako drishti jastai premi man kahaa hunchha ?
Rupko kuro parai raakha kalejo nai maane pachhi !
Aankha bhitrai sansaar chha mutu jitne yuddha paryo
Duri kahaa rahanchha ra tirsanaale taane pachhi !
Ser lekhchhu man jastai khot chhaina bhandai chhu ma
Ajambari katha sangai pirati le baane pachhi !
