Phoolai Phoola Matra Pani - Benup Chhetri

फूलै फूल मात्र पनि - बेनुप क्षेत्री


सङ्गीत: भिम विराग
मूल गायन: मधु क्षेत्री

Lyrics

फूलै फूल मात्र पनि, होईन रैछ जीवन
काँडा बीच फुल्ने, फूल रैछ जीवन

मरीदिने मानिसले, बिष पीउने गर्छन्
कोही बाँची दिन, बिष पिउने गर्छन्
बिषैबिष मात्र पनि, होइन रैछ जीवन
काँडा बीच फुल्ने, फूल रैछ जीवन

अरुलाई कुल्चेर, अघि बढ्छ मानिस
देउता बन्ने रहरमा, ढुंगा बन्छ मानिस
रहर गर्नु मात्र पनि, होइन रैछ जीवन
काँडा बीच फुल्ने, फूल रैछ जीवन

Transliterated

Phulai phool matra pani, hoina raichha jeevan
Kanda bich phulne, phool raichha jeevan

Maridine manisle, bish piune garchhan
Kohi banchi din, bish piune garchhan
Bishaibish matra pani, hoina raichha jeevan
Kanda bich phulne, phool raichha jeevan

Arulai kulchera, aghi badhchha manis
Deuta banne raharma, dhunga banchha manis
Rahar garnu matra pani, hoina raichha jeevan
Kanda bich phulne, phool raichha jeevan

Translated

Life I now know, is not only flower
Instead is a blossom, between thorns

Some drink poison to self destroy
Some drink it for others to survive
Life I now know, is not only poison
Instead is a blossom, between thorns

People walk over, crushing the other
In a race to become divine
They instead convert to a rock
Life I now know, is not only of desire
Instead is a blossom, between thorns

It is difficult to live, and also to die
Yet it is precious for all, this life
Life I now know, is a confluence
Of smiles and flowing tears
Life is a blossom between thorns
