Woven from hundreds of flowers, we are one garland that's Nepali, Sovereignly spread across from Mechi to Mahakali. 𝄆 A shawl of unending natural wealth, From the blood of the braves, a nation free and immovable. A land of knowledge and peace, the plains, hills and mountains tall, Unscathed, this beloved land of ours, O motherland Nepal. Diverse races, languages, religions, and cultures of incredible sprawl, This progressive nation of ours, all hail Nepal!
