Lyrics

हिमालको काखमा छ सानो मेरो गाउँ
पर्वतकी छोरी हुँ म पार्वती हो नाउँ

कालो कालो बादलमा केश फिजाउँछु
कल कल बग्ने म यो देश भिजाउँछु
प्रभातमा टल्किएको मोतीजस्तो शीत
यो माटोमा रोपेकी हुँ मैले चोखो प्रित
पार्वती हो नाउँ

रात पनि निदाउँछ मेरो नयनमा
नयाँ दिन उदाउँछ मेरो बदनमा
बतासमा हराउँदै गए पनि पर
स्वर्गजस्तो नेपाल हो मेरो माइतिघर
पार्वती हो नाउँ

यो देशमा ल्याउँछु म नयाँ नयाँ रंग
सर्माउँदै गाउँछु म कोयलीको सँग
मेरो हाँसो संगालेर फूल मग्मगाउँछ
मेरो रुप सिंगारेर जून जग्मगाउँछ
पार्वती हो नाउँ

Himalko kakhma chha sano mero gaaun
Parwatki chhori hu ma parwati ho nau

Kalo kalo badalma kesh phijaunchhu
Kal kal bagne ma yo desh bhijaunchhu
Prabhatma talkieko motijasto shit
Yo matoma ropeki hu maile chokho prit
Parwati ho nau

Raat pani nidaunchha mero nayanama
Naya din udaunchha mero badanama
Batasma haraundai gae pani par
Swargajasto nepal ho mero maitighar
Parwati ho nau

Yo deshma lyaunchhu ma naya naya ranga
Sarmaundai gaunchhu ma koyaliko sanga
Mero hanso sangalera phool magmagaunchha
Mero rup singarera juna jagmagaunchha
Parwati ho nau

Translated

In the lap of the Himalaya is my little village
A daughter of the mountains
Parvati is my name

I loose my hairs in the darkening clouds
I irrigate this nation flowing in the river sound
Dew drops sparkle to the first morning light
In this land I sow the seeds of pure love
Parvati is my name

Even the night falls asleep in my eyes
A new day dawns across my body
It may gently disappear with the wind
But heaven it is my maternal home Nepal
Parvati is my name

I will usher in new colours to this nation
With the cuckoo bird I shyly sing along
Flowers smell sweet in bouquet of my laughter
The moon evokes as it decorates my being
Parvati is my name
