Resham Firiri
by Kali Prasad Baskota
Resham Firiri is a reflective and deeply personal song that captures the emotional journey of uncertainty and life's constant ups and downs. Kali Prasad Baskota explores the complexity of existence in Nepal, where joy and sorrow seem to dance together in an unpredictable rhythm. The song's central metaphor of silk thread (resham) gently weaving through life suggests how we navigate our paths with fragility and grace, never quite knowing what comes next.
The lyrics speak to a universal human experience, questioning where to go and what truly matters when life keeps moving forward regardless of our plans. There's a tone of acceptance mixed with vulnerability, as the singer contemplates whether to stay rooted or drift away, whether to burden themselves with worry or let things unfold naturally. The repetitive refrain of "resham firiri" becomes almost meditative, emphasizing the cyclical nature of life. This is deeply introspective music that resonates with anyone who has felt lost or overwhelmed by life's constant motion, yet continues moving forward anyway.
Bhari bho bhari bho baini nepal ma eutai juni yo
Kahile ma hasne ho baini nepal ma kaile rune yo
Wari ma jau ki ma pari jau bichai ma pirati
Ho ho resham firiri
Ho ho resham firiri
Ho ho resham firiri
Resham firiri
Theli theli chaldacha jindagi ko motara - 2
Ke le laune khane khai barai chaina kehi bhara
Ma ta muluk basu ki ma muglanai pasun ki
Malai bhani dine ko cha ra ko chara barai
Ukali lagau ki orali jharu aatai bho ji ri ri
Ho ho resham firiri
Ho ho resham firiri
Ho ho resham firiri
Resham firiri
Din raat chaldo cha tara joban galdo cha - 2
Kahile ghar jam garne khai barai baisa dhaldo cha
Kahile dhikki jasto bho kahile jaato jasto bho
Joban thau ko thau mai filili filili barai
Beshure dhunai ma bajaudai mann ko murali ti ri ri
Ho ho resham firiri
Ho ho resham firiri
Ho ho resham firiri
Resham firiri
