Lyrics

हे फूल चुँडेर लाने हो
यहाँ माली रोएको देख्यौ कि
खुसी मिलन मनाउने हो
यहाँ बिछोड भएको देख्यौ कि

माइतीघर, साथीसंगी
सबैलाई सम्झी
डोली चढ्दा दुलही रुन्छे
घुम्टोभित्र लुकी

पन्छी सबै उडेपछि
गुँड रित्तै हुन्छ
यो माटोलाई छोडी गए
देउराली रुन्छ

Transliterated

Oh flower you are to pick
Did you see a gardener crying in grief
Joy is to celebrate a union deep
Did you witness a goodbye so bleak

Hidden underneath the shawl
A bride starts to weep
As she is lifted in a carriage
It comes rolling down
Nostalgia of home friends and family

The nests remain empty
When all the birds fly away
Mountain passes will weep
If this soil be ever deserted
