Lyrics :
K nai payau timile,
Andakar lai apanayera
Maan ma bhako kura
Haru sabai , maan bhitrai rakhera
Harayau affai ma timi,
kaslai khoji rako chau,
binti cha jiwan khera na fala,
Amulya yo Samaya bho
Sabai ko satha timi, Mero mutu ko fula
Jiwan nai sachi cha, chahanna timilai bhulna
Bityo hai timro balyakal,
aagani ma khelera,
jawani jati maya lai,
Maya ma nai marera,
ghau cha gahiro bagyo,
Karnali bedhana ko,
dekhau timra betha essai ni,
Maya ta dherrai le lagyo
Sabai ko Satha timi, Mero mutu ko fula
Jiwan nai sachi cha, chahanna timilai bhulna
Bhandai thiyau hijo ko din,
kehi Samaya bho affai bata tada bhayeko,
jawa ti yard Haru aauchan hawa jhai,
sab krod jati sahe bho,
ye goda haata Haru stiir chan,
enka aafnai chala ma,
rakha timro haat mero ma,
nachau hami aafnai tala ma
Sabai ko satha timi, Mero mutu ko fula
Jiwan nai sachi cha, chahanna timilai bhulna

Tme pani euta gem nai hou.. Your words came true...

[@aakritibasnet4148]

@N.K.C org yeah

[@maya9589]

Kinda uncertain about some parts but I tried translating the lyrics... What did you gain by embracing the darkness? All the things in your heart, keeping them locked in your heart Losing you in yourself, who are you searching for? I'm pleading you, don't waste your life, time is priceless Everyone's companion, you, the flower of my heart My life is a witness, I don't want to forget you Your childhood was spent, playing in your front yard Your youth in love, dying in love Your wounds are deep, flows the Karnali(river) of sorrow Show your pain just like that, love was already taken by many Everyone's companion, you, the flower of my heart My life is a witness, I don't want to forget you You were saying just yesterday That it's been a while since you've been distant from yourself When those memories come like the wind, all the anger seems tolerable These feet and hands are unchanging in their own motion Put your hand on top of mine, let's dance to our own rhythm Everyone's companion, you, the flower of my heart My life is a witness, I don't want to forget you

[@sharoncheatle945]

Wow!!

[@anjeshjoshi6959]

Soo beautiful. Thanks alot for translating. :)

[@krishulamichhane6897]

[@Mary_b]

You WROTE this?... arranged, produced, vocals! WOW. Just love this song & so glad you include the lyrics. I like to follow along. I’m completely floored by your unique voice and though I like your covers, I’m loving these original compositions!! I’m going over to find you on Spotify.

[@coreytomsrealtor3072]

Mary b same here. I’m enjoying these just as much if not more.

[@sumanboro9783]

Fan is just a small word for him, I am just going mad for him day by day, his voice runs through my veins and the moment I listen to his voice, it takes me sometime to come back in this real world, I talk to his pictures everyday, My parents think that I am a freak, how do I explain them, ?

[@shrawana]

I've haven't known disappointment in myself like this, not having found this gem of a voice for so long until now. Took a while but will be staying long. This voice is just so much to take in, such emotions his voice carries.

[@DrDre12]

Please release a cover of “Have You Ever Seen the Rain.” No one has ever sang it like you. I’m a fan. 👏

[@nabingurung7920]

He just did it.....pls check on his channel

[@love_your_mountain]

[@kailashmarasini8876]

Prabhash sherstha...so true bro

[@karmalama8229]

Perfect predicted

[@hr5447]

according to google translate-idk if accurate though [Verse 1] Have you got to embrace the darkness? Keeping all things in your heart Lost yourself, who are you looking for? I beg you not to waste your life, this time tomorrow [Chorus] With all of you the flower of my heart Life is real and you don't want to forget it [Verse 2] Your childhood is spent playing in the fire As a youth, love dies in love The wound is deep, of Karnali pain Show that your love for this story has taken many [Chorus] With all of you the flower of my heart Life is real and you don't want to forget it [Verse 3] You were saying yesterday that you were away from yourself for some time yesterday When those memories come, like the wind, all the anger is right These knee hands are stable in their own way Put your hands on me and we dance to our own rhythm [Chorus] With all of you the flower of my heart Life is real and you don't want to forget it

[@kiddoo714]

Ok the chorus says..with time, you are the flower of my heart..my life is witness so I dont want to forget you! Just feel it and the traslation dont make sense😊😊loved your effort!

[@ribeshrai2989]

Nice

[@shishirpaudel290]

verse 2 : correction to fire ...it's actually angan meaning yard

[@dikshya_adhikari]

Not too shabby of translation

[@j.r.boudreaux9696]

You are so amazing and sweet and rare DIBESH/Arthur Gunn. I am so blessed to have heard your voice, and whatever language you sing really does not matter at all, the tone and lullaby and the story that you naturally carry in your voice is flawless and rare and it will spread like wildflowers your talent. PROUD FO YOU AND STAY TRUE TO YOUR ROOTS and YOUR FAMILY NO MATTER HOW FAMOUS YOU WILL CERTAINLY GET, I SAY ALL that to say this.... do not ever change that kind polite amicable happy quiet yet captivating, almost could pass for a bloodline of Jesus Christ type charisma... that is so rare and yet so healing and comforting. God gave you a true voice from Heaven to uplift this world especially in this pandemic time we live in. Thank you Arthur Gunn AND KEEP THE MUSIC YOU CREATE, COMING, OUR SOULS NEED IT. :)
