Rokina Lagyo
by Sworup Raj Acharya
"Rokina Lagyo Saas Mero Priya" is a poignant and emotionally charged Nepali track sung by the renowned vocalist Swaroop Raj Acharya alongside Janaki Panth. Released on August 28, 2023, the track serves as a standout number from the studio album titled Jeet, which was produced under the ownership of Janaki Panth. Clocking in at an immersive five minutes and eighteen seconds, the song is heavily anchored in classical and semi-classical melodic arrangements that elevate its melancholic tone. Acharya's signature deep, expressive vocals capture a profound sense of longing and heartache, turning the song into a gripping listening experience for enthusiasts of classic Nepali modern pop and Ghazal-infused melodies.
Thematically, the song delves into the painful nuances of separation, intense yearning, and emotional vulnerability. The title itself translates to a deeply moving sentiment—meaning "My breath is about to stop, my dear"—vividly illustrating the despair of an individual enduring the suffocating agony of heartbreak or distance from a loved one.
Rokina lagyo saas mero priya
Pani khuwauna aaucheuki aaudinau
Launa ae sanu aaihal chitai
Natra mukha dekhna paucheu ki paudainau
Rokina lagyo saas mero priya
Pani khuwauna aaucheuki aaudinau
Thartharauna lage yoi otha
Bhayi sakyo jiu chiso
Tai pani pran gayena
Timrai bhayera ghidkiso
Tai pani pran gayena
Timrai bhayera ghidkiso
Yi aankha timrai herera bato
Tolayi raka chan
Ishara gardai haatle
Timilai bolayi raka chan
Ma mare pachi chura pote
Ma mare pachi chura pote
Siudo ma sindur laucheu ki laudinau
Launa ae sanu aaihal chitai
Natra mukha dekhna paucheu ki paudainau
Rokina lagyo saas mero priya
Khabar payi nau ki
Payera aainau
Byakul bho yo man ta
Mairima sarne tayari gardai chan
Yaha sara aafanta
Mairima sarne tayari gardai chan
Yaha sara aafanta
Aayi pugne hau ki
Yo ekai muthi pran gayesi
Bhakkano futai runcheu ki
Yo laas kharani bhayesi
Sunera mero mrityu ko khabar
Sunera mero mrityu ko khabar
Sokko geet gaucheu ki gaudinau
Launa ae sanu aaihal chitai
Natra mukha dekhna paucheu ki paudainau
Rokina lagyo saas mero priya
