The current National Anthem goes:

श्रीमान गम्भीर नेपाली, प्रचण्ड प्रतापी भूपति,
श्री५सरकार महाराजाधिराजको सदा रहोस् उन्नति;
राखून् चिरायु ईशले, प्रजा फैलियोस्
पुकारौं जय प्रेमले, हामी नेपाली साराले।

Dont know if this sort of discussion has been made in sajha, but i wanna start this thread to know what you guys think of this. Do, you believe this is the best choice for our national anthem?
Well, in the present circumstances, we cant expect any change, but i wanna know your opinion.

Is the current national anthem appropriate? If no, which song (or poem,...) do you think best reflects the Nepali spirits?

लोकगीत बेसमा पो आउँछ कि???? जे होस् कर्णप्रीय धूनमैं आउला। शुरुमा कर्णप्रिय नलागे नि, बिस्तारै बिस्तारै मन परिहाल्छ नि।

अब मेरो आजको प्रोजेक्ट: यो नयाँ राष्ट्रिय गान कण्ठ गर्ने!!
:)

Prachanda's trademark is dead Nepali bodies!!

I could not sing this song as a national Anthem cause i grow up with old song....I think my heart could not accept this....song is good even....could not be my national anthem...may be for my son/daughter....
Rastiya Gan bhandaima Rastiya Gan Hudaina.......jaba samma tyo Gan le Timro Maan /Mutu Chhudaina......

बल्ल बल्ल मन्त्रीमन्डलले पास गरेछ त नि गाँठे!

Cabinet approves Maila's song as national anthem

The government has approved the anthem written by poet Byakul Maila as the new National Anthem of Nepal.

Minister for Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation, Prithivi Subba Gurung informed that the cabinet selected the same song as the country's new national anthem.

On November 30 last year, the national anthem selection task team had selected the song written by Maila, alias, Pradeep Kumar Rai as the new national anthem. However due to disputes over the background of Maila and some words used in the song, there was no further progress.

The new National Anthem was selected from a total of 1,272 different songs submitted from across the country.

The minister also informed that musicians Ambar Gurung and Nhyu Bajracharya have been given responsibility to compose music for the song.

However, Maila was not formally informed by the government about this till Thursday evening. "I knew it through friends. There has been no formal information about the selection from the ministry," he added.

Poet Maila was born in the Hilepani village of Okhaldhunga district 34 years ago. Maila, who holds a Bachelor's degree in Law and a Master's in Public Administration has been serving the Nepali literature for the last one and a half decades. He has written dozens of songs, poems, haikus and is also the editor of Nepali Geet Sangraha (a collection of Nepali songs) and literary magazines like Barbhanjyang. He had actively participated in the April Movement.

The National Anthem is two stanzas long and each stanza has four lines. There are altogether 47 words in the new National Anthem.

The restored House of Representatives in its May 18 Proclamation declared the existing national anthem null and void and decided to develop a new one. nepalnews.com pb Apr 20 07

is the only national song I know of and no one can change it.

I have an idea that probably is good but I know those HIGH OFFICIALS in NEPAL won't like it. Insted of changing the national anthem, we can just change some words in the andthem and make them work
SHriman gambhir nepali, prachanda pratapi bhupati
Shree Neeeepaaaaaaal sarkarko sada rahos unnati
Rakhun chiraush le, praja phaileos
pukarau jay prema le, hami Nepali saraaaalee.

गाउछ् गीत नेपाली ज्योतिको पंखा उचाली
यो पहिले गाउने गरेको हैन र?

I hate two word in this new national anthem :

GYANBHUMI and SHANTIBHUMI --- are you fu(king serious??? Damnit!!!!!
