I wrote the most of this song a couple of years ago (2011?) my memory is hazy. In a lot of ways this was the first "proper" song I had written, an homage to the songwriting tradition of the beat bands of the 1960's. 

This song holds special meaning to me as my father is a pilot for Nepal Airlines and has been flying aero planes for a living since as long as I can remember. In fact, he wrote "Mai Runchu" while he was stationed in Dolpa. As a result, planes have always held a special nostalgic feeling for me, especially the twin otters that fly domestically within Nepal. A lot of the songs for the new album have elements of that kind of that faint yet unshakable nostalgia of ones younger days.

I still remember the first time I was able to accompany my father to the cockpit of one of these planes. All the dials, the switches, the knobs and the levers fascinated me even more than the view outside the window. While I never followed in his footsteps and became a pilot, I have somehow ended up working with the dials, switches and knobs as well. The only difference is that instead of levitation, it creates sound and is a vehicle that carries you beyond the realm of the corporeal.

The initial idea was to imagine someone who grew up in a situation that was the complete antithesis of my childhood. This song was written for that little child who has never seen a plane up close. To him or her it is a thing of mystery, curiosity and in some small way, hope.

A huge thanks to Bikash dai for completing the lyrics to the songs. When I started all I had was the first verse and the idea. He was the one who fleshed it out with the beautiful imagery and a wonderful chorus.

All of the recording for this song was done by me in my small bedroom on my laptop. I was living above a restaurant then so I remember having to schedule vocal takes  in between the times they would use this huge exhaust fan which was right outside my window! So a thank you is in order to Phil Abbot who was able to transform this bedroom production into something that I am happy and proud to share. 

I have lived with this song for years and it feels good to finally release it. I hope that it brings you the same joy it has brought to me and my family.

Thank you,

Diwas

Lyrics:
Jhareko yo ansoo, kaile sukdaina
mareko yo maya, kaile jeudaina

 Jhareko yo ansoo, kaile sukdaina
mareko yo maya, kaile jeudaina

Tara mayalai nai thahachaina, ki maana yo taadpirahane cha
 
Tyo mitho samjhana, kaile birsinna
tyo sacho bhavana, kaile pherina
Prayas ma garchu, suna harek din
Asafal ma hunchu, hera harek din
 
Tara mayalai nai thahachaina, ki maana yo taadpirahane cha
 
Eklo raatma timilai samjera, bihana samma namuna ko muhar
Eklo raatma timilai samjera, bihana samma namuna ko muhar
 

khojinchu sadhai sadhai
Timilai birsana, maanale chahanna
Tara timilai pheri pauna, kaile sakinna
 
Jhareko yo anso, kaile sukdaina
mareko yo maya, kaile jeudaina
Jhareko yo anso, kaile sukdaina
mareko yo maya, kaile jeudaina

Jhareko Yo Aansu

luki chipi,
herchu ma timi lai
najik aauna garho kina malai,
ekai china bhayeni , haruna deu
malai merai sansar ma

hawa sari aauchau,

chitra korchu ma nindra ma
timi aru kasaiko bhaye ni

chaya bani chaya bani
aaja pani bholi pani
timro paara ko manche ma
