Chanchale Nani Chulbule Bani
by Suman Shekhar Manandhar
"Chanchale Nani" is a vibrant and upbeat track that beautifully captures the playful essence of contemporary Nepali modern-pop music. Sung by Suman Shekhar Manandhar (frequently credited alongside his musical collaborators as part of his broader musical identity), the song is driven by a lively and rhythmic composition by Madhu Manandhar, paired with lighthearted, expressive lyrics penned by Anuj Shrestha. The track revolves around the flirtatious admiration of a young woman's bubbly persona and carefree demeanor—her "chanchale" (restless/playful) and "chulbule" (bouncy/vivacious) habits—making it an instant mood-lifter.
Musically, the song stands out for its energetic, toe-tapping arrangement that successfully bridges the gap between classic modern adhunik sensibilities and a more youthful, pop-driven beat. Released through Music Nepal, the track became a popular showcase of Suman Shekhar Manandhar's vocal flexibility, proving he could effortlessly transition from deep, soulful ballads to cheerful, danceable numbers. Its infectious rhythm and relatable, feel-good theme have allowed it to retain a sweet spot of nostalgia among listeners who appreciate the bright, melodic era of mid-2000s and 2010s Nepali pop music.
चञ्चले नानी चुल्बुले बानी
चञ्चले नानी चुल्बुले बानी
सोह्र नाघेर सत्र टेकेकी
सोह्र नाघेर सत्र टेकेकी
रूपकी रानी मायाकी खानी

लाजले मलाई किन हेरेकी
लाजले मलाई किन हेरेकी
चञ्चले नानी चुल्बुले बानी
चञ्चले नानी चुल्बुले बानी
नशालु ती गाजलु आँखाले हाइ
लजालु ती यौवनी भाषाले
नशालु ती गाजलु आँखाले हाइ

राजमति भनूँ कि पानबती भनूँ कि

म मात्र हैन दुनिया नै घायल भो
म मात्र हैन दुनिया नै घायल भो
उर्वशी हौ कि या हौ मेनका

चञ्चले नानी चुल्बुले बानी
सोह्र नाघेर सत्र टेकेकी
रूपकी रानी मायाकी खानी
लाजले मलाई किन हेरेकी
चञ्चले नानी चुल्बुले बानी
चञ्चले नानी चुल्बुले बानी
