Lyrics

कुन मन्दिरमा जान्छौ यात्री, कुन मन्दिरमा जाने हो?
कुन सामग्री पुजा गर्ने, साथ कसोरी लाने हो?
कुन मन्दिरमा जान्छौ यात्री, कुन मन्दिरमा जाने हो?
कुन सामग्री पुजा गर्ने, साथ कसोरी लाने हो?
कुन मन्दिरमा जान्छौ यात्री?

हाडहरूको सुन्दर खम्बा, मांशपिण्डको दिवार
मष्तिस्कको सुनको छाना, इन्द्रियहरूको द्वार
नशा नदीका तर-तरंग, मन्दिर आफू अपार
कुन मन्दिरमा जान्छौ यात्री?

साथी-यात्री बीच सडकमा, ईश्वर हिड्दछ साथ
चुम्दछ ईश्वर काम सुनौला, गरिरहेको हात
छुन्छ तिलष्मी करले उसले, सेवकहरूको माथ
कुन मन्दिरमा जान्छौ यात्री?

फर्क-फर्क, हे, जाऊ समाऊ, मानिस हरुको पाऊ
मलम लगाऊ आर्थहरूको, चहराई रहेको घाऊ
मानिसहरू भै ईश्वरको त्यो दिव्य मुहार हसाऊ
कुन मन्दिरमा जान्छौ यात्री?

सडक किनारा गाउँछ ईश्वर चराहरूको तानामा
बोल्दछ ईश्वर मानिसहरुको पिडा दुःखको गानामा
दर्शन किन्तु कहीं दिदैन चर्मचक्षुले कानामा
कुन मन्दिरमा जान्छौ यात्री, कुन मन्दिरमा जाने हो?
कुन सामग्री पुजा गर्ने, साथ कसोरी लाने हो?
कुन मन्दिरमा जान्छौ यात्री?

Kuna mandirma janchhau yatri, kuna mandirma jane ho?
Kuna samagri puja garne, sath kasori lane ho?
Kuna mandirma janchhau yatri, kuna mandirma jane ho?
Kuna samagri puja garne, sath kasori lane ho?
Kuna mandirma janchhau yatri?

Hadaharuko sundar khamba, manshapindako diwar
Mashtiskako sunako chhana, indriyaharuko dwar
Nasha nadika tara-taranga, mandir aaphu apar
Kuna mandirma janchhau yatri?

Sathi-yatri bich sadakma, ishwar hiddachha sath
Chumdachha ishwar kaam sunaula, gariraheko hat
Chhunchha tilashmi karle usale, sewakaharuko math
Kuna mandirma janchhau yatri?

Pharka-pharka, he, jaoo samaoo, manis haruko paoo
Malam lagaoo aarthaharuko, chaharai raheko ghaoo
Manisaharu bhai ishwarko tyo diwya muhar hasaoo
Kuna mandirma janchhau yatri?

Sadak kinara gaunchha ishwar charaharuko tanama
Boldachha ishwar manisharuko pida duhkhako ganama
Darshana kintu kahi didaina charmachakshule kanama
Kuna mandirma janchhau yatri, kuna mandirma jane ho?
Kuna samagri puja garne, sath kasori lane ho?
Kuna mandirma janchhau yatri?

Translated

To which temple do you go Yatri*
To which temple are you heading for
What items would you worship
How would you carry it together
Beautiful pillars of bones
The flesh its walls
This golden roof of mind
The sense organs its doorways
Liquid waves of rivers in veins
Your self itself is the temple infinite
To which temple do you go Yatri
Yatri friend in the middle of the street
With whom the divine walks along
Those hands toiling good deeds
Kisses the god while they work
And with his own magical hand
God himself touches those who serve
To which temple do you go Yatri
Turn back go touch the people’s feet
Cover the burning wounds with ointment
Of those in its need
Become a human and bring a smile
Upon the divine face of the supreme
To which temple do you go Yatri
