"BATASIDAI" is my first original Nepali song and words can't express how proud and excited I am to be releasing it in my beloved native tongue.
Inspired by Western movie sound tracks and classic Nepali pop/rock, it was recorded in my bedroom and shot in the incredibly beautiful and challenging landscape of LADAKH with an iPhone 15 pro. The song talks about how generally people get locked up in a bubble and struggle to take a free spirited approach towards life. The constant need to build a greater and bigger future followed by the stress that comes with it means that people have forgotten the art of living in the present. I myself have been trapped in the bubble like everyone else and it is Mother Nature who helps me be free albeit for a blissfully brief moment in time.
"BATASIDAI" literally means "drifting in the wind".
It is with a positive and relaxed attitude, the song emphasises on letting go of all inhibitions and fears as sometimes it is perfectly fine to drift along and be free spirited. Life will take its own course no matter how hard we try, so don't overthink and just chase your dreams as life itself is so very impermanent. Don't forget to be one with mother nature.

LYRICS:
Batasidai udi hidna
Mana lagcha
Kina yo mann aja mero
Tesai baralincha
Gothale jhain bhahoontarina
Mana lagcha
Afai lai kahile bhetda kheri
Dara lagcha
Birseka ti bato haru
Bolaune thalchan
Jhaki diye dhukdhuki ko
Jhyalkhana ma
Kahile nafarki bagi rahane
Khola hoon ma
Besari yo jeewan maa
Sadhai duli rahanchu
Sadhai bagi rahanchu
Ananta raata ma lukeko
Tara khoji rahanchu
Sadhai bagi rahanchu
Humming.......( followed by the lead section )
