Paradox
Normal people take fun
From what they normally do;
Abnormal people make fun
Of what normal people do;
The common source of fun is
What abnormal people can't do!

Who Would You Blame?
In your house:
If doors creak,
If windows rattle,
If couches crackle,
If sofas crumble,
If chairs rock,
If commodes swing,
If taps whistle,
If cows kick your mom,
If dogs growl at your dad,
If cats claw your kids ...
Whom are you
Most tempted to blame?

Match
It is easy to umpire
A match yet to begin;
What counts is
How prepared you are
If you must play it!
तिम्रो/मेरो प्रतिभा
तिम्रो/मेरो खुलेको प्रतिभासँग
म/तिमीलाई डर छैन
तिम्रो/मेरो लुकेको प्रतिभाको
म/तिमीलाई भर छैन
तिम्रो/मेरो प्रतिभा बुझ्दै हिंड्ने
म/तिमीलाई कर छैन!

On a Tree
It's a tree's duty to bear fruit
Service to bear nests
Virtue to bear shadows
And plight to bear pests
One that grumbles of all four
Detests the first three
And forgets the first two
Deserves to be felled!

Irony
We judge others
To our convenience;
We change ourselves
To their convenience!
अहिलेको सत्य
मुखामुख गरेर बोल्नु नपरेपछि,
नजिकबाट सुन्नु नपरेपछि,
हामी धेरै बोल्दैछौँ,
अती धेरै सुन्दैछौँ,
थोरै बुझ्दैछौँ !
Donkeys
In the regime of the ordinary,
An ordinary donkey
Becomes acceptable,
And remains acceptable
Until an extraordinary species
Invades the regime!
Ask Me Not
Do not worry,
And ask me not
Why and how;
Sometimes your critics
Do a greater service
To your name
Than your cronies!
झरी
झरी परिरहेको छ अहिले,
तर पर्खेको छैन मैले
कुनै चमत्कार
कुनै जादू!
झरीले जे गर्न सक्छ,
त्यही हुँदै जान्छ,
मलाई यत्ति थाहा छ!
