"Beautiful patriotic song, makes me feel proud of my country every time I listen to this masterpiece"

गीत जहाँ छन बुद्धका आँखा, स्निग्ध शान्त र सुन्दर। त्यहाँ छ शान्तीको क्षेत्र, मेरो राष्ट्र मनोहर। प्राण भन्दा प्यारो लाग्छ, मेरो देश कता कता। छल्किन्छ ममता मेरो, भावगंगा जतातता।

Lyrics Jaha chhan Buddha ka aakha, snigdha shanta ra sundar Tyaha cha shanti ko chhetra, mero rashtra manohar Praan vanda pyaaro laagcha, mero desh kata kata Chalkincha mamata mero, bhavaganga jata tata

There, lies the Buddha's eyes, smooth, calm, and beautiful
Which is the land of peace, my beautiful nation
Feels dearer than my own life, my nation
My love and emotion overflows everywhere...

Timi Jun Raharle - Narayan Gopal

तिमी जुन रहरले - स्वर सम्राट नारायण गोपाल

"Beautifully sung by our king of tragedy Narayan Gopal, this one is a poetic masterpiece"

गीत तिमी जुन रहरले, म मा फुल्न आयौ। सबै सुख हराए, सधैँ चोट पायौ। म डुब्दो किनारा, कहाँ हास्न सक्नु। व्यर्थै तिमीले मेरो, हात समायौ।

Lyrics Timi jun raharle, ma maa fulna aayeu Sabai sukha haraye, sadhai chot payeu Ma dubdo kinara, kaha hasna saknu Byarthai timile mero, haat samayeu

In vain you held my hand...
