Nepali folk songs Resham pheeree Ree


Source: Lonely planet Trekking in the Nepal Himalaya

Nepali folk songs

You are almost certain to hear folk songs in the hills,  either from your porters or from villagers, and often accompanied by  a two-headed drum, called a Madal. Most songs consist of an endless series of verses and chorus. One or two people who know the words usually take the lead and everyone joins in the chorus. Here's one song you are bound heart at some point on the trail, along with a translation of the lyrics.

Resham pheeree Ree


chorus: Resham pheeree ree, Resham pheeree ree
Udeyra jaunkee dandaa ma bhanjyang
Resham pheeree ree

My heart is fluttering like silk in the wind
I cannot  decide whether to fly to or sit on the hilltop

Ek naley bunduk, dui naley bunduk, mriga lai takey ko
Mriga lai mailey takey ko hoeina, maya lai dankey ko

One – barrelled gun, two-barrelled gun? Targeted at a deer?
It's not the deer that I am aiming at, but at my beloved


Resham pheeree ree, Resham pheeree ree
Udeyra jaunkee dandaa ma bhanjyang
Resham pheeree ree

My heart is fluttering like silk in the wind
I cannot  decide whether to fly to or sit on the hilltop

Kukur lai kutti kutti, biralo lai suri
Timro hamro maya priti dobato ma kuri

To the dog it's puppy, puppy, to the cat it's  meow meow
Our love is waiting at the corssroads


Resham pheeree ree, Resham pheeree ree
Udeyra jaunkee dandaa ma bhanjyang
Resham pheeree ree

My heart is fluttering like silk in the wind
I cannot  decide whether to fly to or sit on the hilltop




Sano ma sano gaiko bachho bhirai ma, Ram Ram
Chodera jana sakena mailey  baru maya sanghai jaun

The tiny baby calf's is in danger at the precipice
I couldn't leave it there, let's go together, my love

Resham pheeree ree, Resham pheeree ree
Udeyra jaunkee dandaa ma bhanjyang
Resham pheeree ree

My heart is fluttering like silk in the wind
I cannot  decide whether to fly to or sit on the hilltop




kodo charyo, makai charyo, dhan chareko chaina
pachi, pachi na au kanchi, manpareko chaina

Millet is planted, corn is planted, but not the rice
Don't follow me little girl, because  I don't like you

Resham pheeree ree, Resham pheeree ree
Udeyra jaunkee dandaa ma bhanjyang
Resham pheeree ree

My heart is fluttering like silk in the wind
I cannot  decide whether to fly to or sit on the hilltop
