Malai Ek Chin Deu by Nhoo Bajracharya Guitar Chords

This is probably not the way Nhoo dai plays the song, but it works well enough for me to sing along. He says this song is about today's lifestyle, where everyone is so busy and we need a moment to connect with friends and family. But that was said on a TV interview, so maybe he was being coy. This song is surely about a different moment.

Am / E(G bass)

Am                                   E7  E
Malai ek chin deu timro ekai chin
Am                          E7  E
Hos tyo mero lagi yesto rin
Am                            E7  E
Tirnai nasaku ki ma aajiwan
          Am                         E7  E
Malai ek chin deu timro ekai chin
           C           E7
Yesto hos ki yesto hos
Am                E7
Tyo nai hos jiwan


E7                    Am             
Jati jiye thi aaja samma
E7            Am
Mare sari jiye
E7                     Am
Tyo chin malai yesto hos ki
C                E7
Amrit nai piye

Malai ek chin deu timro ekai chin
Hos tyo mero lagi yesto rin
Tirnai nasaku ki ma aajiwan
Malai ek chin deu timro ekai chin
Yesto hos yesto hos
Tyo nai hos jiwan

Yesari deu tyo malai tyo chhin, yesto hos tyo ghadi
Timilai pani tripti milos, pida liye sari

Samhali Rakhe by Ciney Gurung Guitar Chords

I always thought this song was the normal song about love and heartbreak, not really my kind of lyrics. Today, I heard it in a different perspective though. I heard it sung about distances within a relationship, when two people are physically together but miles apart in their hearts. From today onwards, for me this song is about losing your own self, losing your own identity in the relationship because you thought love was changing yourself to fit in with the other person's expectations. A word of advice - don't do it like that. Love with all your heart, but be yourself.

Em/G/C/Bm

Em                             G

Em                                        Am

Em                                          G

Em                                         Am
maile bishwas ma shankha garina
Em                                      C          Am        G
baru harai diye sara mero aafno bhawana 
                 Em                      Am               C                      Am          Em
timro maya ma, timro maya ma, angalo ma, timro maya ma, angalo ma

Once upon a time, there used to be this really cool bar called Absolute in the old Narayani hotel building. In those pre - MaPaSe golden days, the band would start around 9, the music went on till 12, and the bar stayed open as late as 2 in the morning. It was the last watering hole for all the drunkards around town, and the place used to start getting crowded after all the other places in town slowly shut down. The late hours was one of the reasons it was our favourite bar. 

Anyway, one time that we were there drinking, it was a quiet night with only a few tables occupied. When the band was taking a break, we were playing their guitar and singing some old tunes. The bar emptied out, and suddenly it was only us playing, with just the original band and Ciney didi with her friends as our audience. I remember they all gathered around, we were taking requests, and Ciney didi said, "Aah ha, kasto ramailo. Maile ta ahile samma esari audience bhaera ramailo gareko chaina" or something similar to that effect. 

We didn't know her personally, just as the artist, and she didn't know us either. It was a chilled vibe where alcohol and music brought strangers together for a good night out. So Ciney didi, if this story does get to you somehow, thanks for this song. And if you remember this night I'm talking about, here's a toast to good health and a good life. 

As Mukti dai said, "Yo jindagi ma laijanu ke cha ra, bachun jel mili juli bajau rock & roll!".
