Paroles et traduction Neetesh Jung Kunwar - Maya Sasto

खोजिराको छु विद्यालय
जहाँ किताबले मात्र पढाईदैन
सुन्न भन्दा नि बुझन चाहान्छु
ईच्छा बिपरीत केही गरिंदैन
पुर्खा त मेरो सबै दुस्मनलाई भारी
तर म जस्तो सन्तान पैदा भो

लड्न त लड्यो मेरो सिपाही दाजु
तर कुर्सीको uncleलाई फाइदा भो
किनकी बोलि भने सबको मीठो
भित्रबाट कुन्नि कस्तो?
गाह्रो भयो जिउन हामीलाई
याहाँ पैसो भन्दा माया सस्तो!

हिडीराको छु उकाली-ओराली
अनि सोच्दैछु जिन्दगी काहाँ पुग्यो?
सानोमा हुँदा बन्छु भन थिए engineer
तर अहिले, त्यो जोस काहाँ लुक्यो?
Certificate भने टन्नैको याहाँ
धाउनु पर्या छ एउटा नाथे जागिरको लागि
Airportमा departureको traffic जाम छ
छाड्नु पर्या छ देश आफ्नाे घरबार त्यागी

मुला! बोलि भने सबको मीठो
भित्रबाट कुन्नि कस्तो?
गाह्रो भयो जिउन हामीलाई
याहाँ पैसो भन्दा माया सस्तो
(एकचोटी फेरी!)
बोलि भने सबको मीठो
भित्रबाट कुन्नि कस्तो?
गाह्रो भयो जिउन हामीलाई
याहाँ पैसो भन्दा माया सस्तो!

सारै भाग्यमानी हामी यता जन्मियाैं
चारैतिर हरियाली बोट अनेकाै
त्यैनि दाैडेको छौँ हतारमा
आफ्नै-आफ्नै रफतारमा
बनाउन छाडी बन्यातिर लम्कियाैं
हामी गर्ने होला के? याहाँ बसेर पनि
विदेश जाउ न काम अनुसार कमाई त छ नि!
दोष कसलाई दिने यहाँ सरकार कि आफूलाई?
राष्ट्रि छ गरिब तर मान्छे चै धनि
आखिर कसरी? चल्ने होला किनकि
कसैलाई मस्ती छ कसैको संघर्स दैनिकी
साला, दिनभरी घोट्टियो, बजारमा जोत्तियो

पुग्दैन देवा अनि आफै बन्दकी
फेरी देखाउनै पर्ने हामी नेपालीको जातलाई
जसरी नि चाहियो दामी यसपालीको चाडलाई
कोट पैन्ट ढल्कियो, फोकटमा मस्कियो
हाकिमको गाली, तफ guardसगं संकियो

हा, हेर आफू त गाइने
सिक्दै छु तैनि सबलाई दामी नै चाहिने
आजकलको जमानामा के भाको? दाजु लै न
माया र गाली पनि कमेन्ट मै पाइने
हस् त गए मा सबैको जय होस्
मस्त भएर मोटाउनु है दोस्त
समाजको कुराकानी रैछ लास्टै गहिरो
तल लोभको बाडी, माथि लालचको पहिरो

बोलि भने सबको मीठो
भित्र बाट कुन्नि कस्तो?
गाह्रो भयो जिउन हामीलाई
याहाँ पैसो भन्दा माया सस्तो
(एकचोटी फेरी!)
बोलि भने सबको मीठो
भित्र बाट कुन्नि कस्तो?
गाह्रो भयो जिउन हामीलाई
याहाँ पैसो भन्दा माया सस्तो

Looking for a school
Where books are not just read
I want to understand, not just listen
Nothing can be done against the will
My ancestors were heavy for all the enemies
But I was born as a child

My soldier brother fought
But the uncle at the desk benefited
Because everyone's words are sweet
I wonder what's inside?
It became difficult for us to live
Here love is cheaper than money!

I'm walking up and down the slopes
And I wonder where life has gone?
When I was little, I used to say I'd be an engineer
But now, where has that passion gone?
There are so many certificates here
You have to run to a master for a job
There is a traffic jam at the airport
I have to leave my country, my home

Darling, everyone's words are sweet
I wonder what's inside?
It became difficult for us to live
Here love is cheaper than money
(One more time!)
Everyone's words are sweet
I wonder what's inside?
It became difficult for us to live
Here love is cheaper than money!

We are very lucky to be born here
Greenery all around, many plants
We run in a hurry
At our own pace
We stopped farming and went into the jungle
What can we do here?
Go abroad and earn money as you work
Who is to blame here, the government or ourselves?
The nation is poor but the people are rich
How is this possible?
Someone is having fun, someone is struggling everyday
Damn, I toiled all day, plowed the market

It's not enough, God, and then I'm mortgaged
And then we have to show off the Nepali race
We need something expensive for this festival
The suit and pants are ruined, the mascara is worthless
The boss's scolding, the guard's abuse

Ha, look at yourself, you singer
You're learning that everyone needs something expensive
What's up with today's world? Take it, brother
Love and hate can also be found in the comments
Well then, let's go, everyone
Get fat by having fun, my friend
The conversation about society is very deep
The bottom is a field of greed, the top is a mountain of greed

Everyone's words are sweet
I wonder what's inside?
It became difficult for us to live
Here love is cheaper than money
(One more time!)
Everyone's words are sweet
I wonder what's inside?
It became difficult for us to live
Here love is cheaper than money
