Lyrics

शहर भित्र केको हल्ला
मेरो मायालु आउने बेलामा
पाउने छैन अंध्यारो खोस्न
सपनिमा आउने बेलामा

अंध्यारो भित्र म पस्छु, म भित्र उ
मसंगै हांसी बस्छ सपनिमा उ

शहर भित्र केको हल्ला
मेरो मायालु आउने बेलामा
पाउने छैन अंध्यारो खोस्न
सपनिमा आउने बेलामा

मभित्र मुटु चल्छ, मुटुभित्र उ
मेरै नजिक आइ बस्छ मेरै गीतको सुर

शहर भित्र केको हल्ला
मेरो मायालु आउने बेलामा
पाउने छैन अंध्यारो खोस्न
सपनिमा आउने बेलामा

Shahar bhitra keko halla
Mero mayalu aaune belama
Paune chhaina andhyaro khosna
Sapanima aaune belama

Andhyaro bhitra ma paschhu, ma bhitra u
Masangai hansi baschha sapanima u

Shahar bhitra keko halla
Mero mayalu aaune belama
Paune chhaina andhyaro khosna
Sapanima aaune belama

Mabhitra mutu chalchha, mutubhitra u
Merai najik aai baschha merai geetko sur

Shahar bhitra keko halla
Mero mayalu aaune belama
Paune chhaina andhyaro khosna
Sapanima aaune belama

Translated

What is this noise in the city
When my beloved is headed this way
As in the dream my beloved is to appear
No the darkness cannot be taken away

I enter the darkness and my love is inside me
In the dream my beloved smiles and stays besides me

What is this noise in the city
When my beloved is headed this way
As in the dream my beloved is to appear
No don't take the darkness away

Within me pulsates the heart with my beloved inside
Closer comes the melody of my own song to stay beside

What is this noise in the city
When my beloved is headed this way
As it is in the dream my beloved is to appear
No the darkness it cannot be snatched away
