A documentary film by Satyajit Ray on Sikkim which was produced by the Chyogal of Sikkim was lost for long years and recently(January 2003) a good quality print was found safe in the British Film Institute. The film is very good but what caught my notice was an old Nepali song being featured in the film. I have no idea who is the singer but its a very nice song. Do let us know if you have any details.
Lyrics goes like this:
है सानु मारुनी, नाची देउ न है नाची देउ
है सानु मारुनी, नाची देउ न है नाची देउ
आगनैमा नाचन न, माया पृति गास न
आगनैमा राख न, माया पृति गास न
लौ न दाई बझाई देउ बझाई देउ न है माधलु
कन्चंजंगा शीर राखी पठाई देउ न है बादलु
hai sanu maruni, nachi deu na hai nachi dew
hai sanu maruni, nachi deu na hai nachi dew
aanganai ma nacha na, maya preeti gasha na
aanganai ma rakha na, maya preeti gasha na
lau na dai bajhai dew, bajhai dew na hai madhalu
kanchanjunga seer rakhi pathai dew na hai badhalu
