Lyrics

पर्खी बसेछु त्यही ठाउँमा जाहाँ तिमी आउने भन्थ्याै
थोपा पानीहरूको माझमा रुझी-भिजी म अझैँ कुर्छु
तिमी आउँ या नआउ म सातै दिन त्यही बाटो हेरी बस्नेछु
सम्झदै तिम्रो त्यो मुस्कानलाई

मायामा परेछु म, आज यो के भयो?
छाया तिम्रै चाहाँन्छु जीवनमा मेरो

केही अघिको कुरा यो, भेटेको उसलाई पोखरामा
आँखा मेरो अडियो उसको ति गुलाबी गालामा
हिँडे म नि पछिपछि, भुले अब सब कुरा
मनमा मेरो खेल्छन् कुरा, तर भन्न सक्छु र?

सुस्तरी-सुस्तरी हिँडे म उनको तिर
उनले हेरिन मलाई गहिरा ति आँखाले, बढ्यो मेरो ढुकढुकि
ऊ पनि आइन म तिर, सोधिन मलाई येदि कहिँ बाट चिनेको छु
किन रोकिन मैले आफुलाई, भने सारै नै राम्रो तिम्रो मुहार देखेर

लाग्यो मिठो होला तिम्रो आवाज
मेरो साज बनाइदेउ अब एक cup coffee को साथ
पुगेर त्यो कुनाको cafe मा गराैं हामी कुराकानी खुलेर
भुलेर सबै कामसाम, बस्छु तिमीलाई नै सुनेर

हैन, हैन, ढिलो भैराछ आज बरू अरू दिन आउँछु
गाउँला हामी सँगै सँगै गीत पनि, भनि
आज नि छैन कोहि कोहि, आसामा बित्न थाल्यो जिन्दगि
राखेछु तिम्लाई मुटु माझमा आजको साझ तिम्रो यादमा फेरि

नसालु तिम्रा ति आँखालाई सम्झिदै बस्ने छु
सम्झदै तिम्रो त्यो मुहारलाई

मायामा परेछु म, आज यो के भयो?
छाया तिम्रै चाहाँन्छु जीवनमा मेरो

Maya Ma Lyrics in English (Romanized)

Parkhi basechu tyahi thaaumaa jahaa timi aaune bhanthyau
Thopaa paaniharuko maajhmaa rujhi-bhiji ma ajhai kurchu
Timi aau yaa naaau ma saatai din tyahi baato heri basnechu
Samjhadai timro tyo muskaanlaai

Maayaamaa parechu ma, aaja yo ke bhayo?
Chhaayaa timrai chaahanchu jivanmaa mero

Kehi aghiko kuraa yo, bheteko uslaai Pokharaamaa
Aankhaa mero adiyo usko ti gulaabi gaalaamaa
Hide ma ni pachhipachhi, bhule aba sab kuraa
Manmaa mero khelchhan kuraa, tara bhanna sakchu ra?

Sustari-sustari hide ma unko tira
Unle herin malaai gahiraa ti aankhaale, badhyo mero dhukdhuki
U pani aain ma tira, sodhin malaai yedi kahi baata chineko chu
Kina rokina maile aafulaai, bhane saarai nai raamro timro muhaar dekhera

Laagyo mitho holaa timro aawaaj
Mero saaj banaaideu aba ek cup coffee ko saath
Pugera tyo kunaako cafe maa garaun haami kuraakaani khulera
Bhulera sabai kaamsaam, baschu timilaai nai sunera

Haina, haina, dhilo bhairaachha aaja baru aru din aauchu
Gaaulaa haami sangai sangai geet pani, bhani
Aaja ni chhaina kohi kohi, aasaamaa bitna thaalyo jindagi
Raakhechu timlaai mutu maajhmaa aajako saajh timro yaadmaa pheri

Nasaalu timraa ti aankhaalaai samjhidai basne chu
Samjhadai timro tyo muhaarlaai

Maayaamaa parechu ma, aaja yo ke bhayo?
Chhaayaa timrai chaahanchu jivanmaa mero

Maya Ma Lyrics — English Translation & Meaning

I have been waiting in the very place where you said you would come
Soaked through in the falling rain, I am waiting still
Whether you come or not, I will watch that road all seven days,
remembering that smile of yours

I have fallen in love — what has happened to me today?
It is your shadow I want in my life

This was a little while ago; I met her in Pokhara
My eyes caught on those rose-pink cheeks of hers
I walked along behind her, and forgot everything else
Things stir in my heart — but could I ever say them?

Slowly, slowly, I walked towards her
She looked at me with those deep eyes, and my heartbeat climbed
She came towards me too, and asked whether I knew her from somewhere
Why did I not stop myself — I said, your face is simply too beautiful

I thought your voice would be sweet
Be my music now, over a single cup of coffee
Let us get to that café on the corner and talk openly
Forgetting all my work, I will sit and just listen to you

No, no — it has got late today; I will come another day instead
We will sing a song together too, she said
Today there is no one here either; life has begun passing in hope
I have kept you in the middle of my heart; this evening too, remembering you

I will sit remembering those intoxicating eyes of yours,
remembering that face of yours

I have fallen in love — what has happened to me today?
It is your shadow I want in my life

About "Maya Ma" by Sushant KC

"Maya Ma" is a story song, and its structure is the reason it lands. The chorus is pure infatuation — I have fallen in love, what has happened to me today — but the verses tell you exactly how little actually happened, and the gap between the two is the whole song.

The sequence is almost embarrassingly ordinary. He saw a woman in Pokhara. He followed at a distance. She noticed, came over, and asked whether they had met before. He blurted out that her face was too beautiful. He proposed coffee at the café on the corner. She said it had got late, she would come another day, and that they would sing together sometime. That is the entire romance, and it has already ended before the last verse begins.

What the song is really about is the waiting that follows. The opening image — standing soaked in the rain at the agreed place, watching the road for seven days — is not the beginning of the story but its consequence, placed first. "Timi aau yaa naaau", whether you come or not, he will wait anyway, which quietly admits he already knows the answer.

The final chorus is the saddest use of a word in Sushant KC's catalogue. He does not ask for her; he asks for "chhaayaa timrai", your shadow, in my life. Having been given one afternoon and a vague promise, he has adjusted what he is willing to want.
