Ma Afnai Aganma - Yash Kumar Lyrics & Chords

Ma Afnai Aganma

by Yash Kumar

"Ma Aafnai Aagan Ma Inar Banauchu" is a defining masterpiece in modern Nepali pop music, written, composed, and sung by the iconic artist Yash Kumar. Released in his fourth studio album Tirkha, the track achieved massive commercial success while serving as a revolutionary protest anthem against caste discrimination and untouchability. Through his soulful vocals and evocative storytelling, Kumar uses the medium of mainstream music to confront the rigid social hierarchies and prejudices that have historically marginalized communities in Nepal. The title translates to "I Will Dig a Well in My Own Backyard," symbolizing a poignant narrative of self-reliance and emotional defiance in the face of systemic exclusion. The lyrics capture the pain of a person denied access to communal water sources and village temples, declaring a powerful resolution to find divinity and dignity within their own home instead. Decades after its debut, the song remains deeply influential, frequently celebrated in live performances and digital covers for its timeless message of equality, human rights, and social justice.
