पला–पला जिन्दगीको पात खस्दै गयो
गोधूलिको सङ्घारमा रात खस्दै गयो
आफैँलाई बिर्सँदै म पराई माझ पुगेँ
धेरै बिहान झुल्किएँ म धेरै साँझ डुबेँ
मलाई आफ्नै सपनीको प्यास लाग्दै गयो
पूmल फुल्दा तिम्रो मात्र याद जाग्दै गयो
कहिले बजेँ तारसँगै आफैँ थर्किएर
कहिले खसेँ ऐना जस्तै फुटेँ चर्किएर
मलाई आफ्नै वेदनाको आघात लाग्दै गयो
तिमी विना आफ्नै आँगन प्रवास लाग्दै गयो
Pala–pala jindagiko paat khasdai gayo
Godhuliko sangharma raat khasdai gayo
Aaphailai birsandai ma parai majh puge
Dherai bihana jhulkie ma dherai sanjha dube
Malai aaphnai sapaniko pyas lagdai gayo
Puml phulda timro matra yad jagdai gayo
Kahile baje tarasangai aaphai tharkiera
Kahile khase aina jastai phute charkiera
Malai aaphnai wedanako aaghat lagdai gayo
Timi wina aaphnai aangana prawas lagdai gayo
AS TIME PASSED
As time passed the leaves of life kept falling
Night fell upon the threshold of evening time
Forgetting who I was I wandered amid strangers
I rose many a morning and many a dusk I set
I began to thirst and hunger for my own dreams
Your memory haunted me when flowers bloomed
At times I trembled with the strings of the guitar
At times I dropped like a mirror and shattered into pieces
I began to be betrayed by my own grief
My courtyard felt alien without you
