Lekaki Hey Maya - Kandara Lyrics & Chords

Lekaki Hey Maya

by Kandara

"Lekaki Hey Maya" is a timeless masterpiece of the 1990s Nepali folk-pop era, originally written and composed by Sunil Thapa and brought to life by the legendary Kandara Band. Fronted by the soulful vocals of lead singer Bivek Shrestha, the track seamlessly blends traditional mountain folk melodies with contemporary acoustic pop arrangements. Alongside massive hits like "Hongkong Pokhara," this song defined a golden decade for the band, cementing their legacy as pioneers who dominated radio waves and community gatherings across Nepal. The poetic lyrics tell a romantic and nostalgic story centered around the captivating charm of a girl from the high hills (Lek). It paints a vibrant picture of rural mountain life, using beautiful cultural metaphors like adorning hair with red rhododendron flowers (guras) and wearing traditional black eyeliner (kaalo gajal).

Timi ramri chau

Sabaile malai bhanchan ni

Timi ramri chau

Sabaile malai bhanchan ni

Ghar chodi bhagera najanu

Aama tyasaile bhanchin ni

Ghass kati ahile aula ni

Bhandai lau hera ma hide

Ghass kati ahile aula ni

Bhandai lau hera ma hide

Lekaki hey maya

Mohani sabailai lagaune

Aakhako rimjhim le

Mana nai khalbalaidine

Lekaki hey maya

Mohani sabailai lagaune

Aakhako rimjhim le

Mana nai khalbalaidine

Guras tipera chultho sajeki

Aakhama kalo gajal layeki

Guras tipera chultho sajeki

Aakhama kalo gajal layeki

Ke sarai ramri bhayeki

Jhan hasdai herdai hideki

Lekaki hey maya

Mohani sabailai lagaune

Eh akhako rimjhim le

Mana nai khalbalaidine

Syau jasto gala

Aakha lagla hai

Komal manlai

Fakaula hai

Syau jasto gala

Aakha lagla hai

Komal manalai

Fakaula hai

Kaha jana timi hideki

Hamilai kina birseki

Lekaki hey maya

Mohani sabailai lagaune

Aakhako rimjhim le

Mana nai khalbalaidine

Lekaki hey maya

Mohani sabailai lagaune

Hey akhako rimjhim le

Mana nai khalbalaidine
