His One of the Poem
कहाँ सम्म्को आँट लौ हेर तिन्को
रिसाएर आँखा पनि तर्न लागे
कहाँ सम्म्को आँट लौ हेर तिन्को
रिसाएर आँखा पनि तर्न लागे
एकै पल्ट आँखा घुमाई दिनाले
कती मर्न लागे कती डर्न लागे
सुनिस मन मुनिया बडा होस राखेस्
बिछाएर जाल कागुनो छर्न लागे
बिरान र आफना नराम्रा र राम्रा
सबै सुन्दरिका अघी सर्न लागे
अघी पर्न सक्दिन मैले हरिका
नजर देखी 'मोति' पनि झर्न थाले
बहेर मुतकरिब मुसम्मन सालिम्
एए सानै उमेर देखी मन हार्न थले । ।

Bal Krishna Sam |
Balkrishna Samser Jang Bahadur Rana (1903-1981),who adopted the pen name 'Sama' which means equal in 1948, is one of the trimurti of early modern Nepali Literature that considered a dramatist or a poet and his reputation as a painter should also be mentioned but as the years passed and his contributions reasseased with the benefit of hindsight it seems likely that this poetry will stand the test of time rather than his plays.The latter,though still highly praised by critics are often assessed by younger writers as heavily dated and decreasing relevance to a society that has changed radically since they were composed.The majority of the poems after his plays represent a major advance in the simplification of poetic diction in Nepali .The relational angestic philosophy they promote with varying degrees of success strike a chord among readers.Unlike his two equally illustrations contemporaries, { Read More}

Siddhi Charan Shrestha [1912-92],the son of prosperous newar land owner was another member of the generation of poet that laid the foundations of the twentieth century Nepali verse. He was considered as the 'Yuga Kabi' .His poetry has much In common with Devkota’s though its mworded and calmer in tone.Like Devvkota’s ,Shrestha was a romantic who rebelled against the shortcomings of the Rana Rigime.His most famous poems ,’Mero Pyaro Okhaldhunga’ looks back nostalgically at the simplicity of the poets life as a child in the eastern Nepal and therefore compares the present unfavorably with the past and the city with the village. The poem was regarded as a political statement but it could equally be argued that it means no mere than it says. Many of Shrestha’s poems,specially those written during the 1940’s were clearly meant to make the poitical points,but he was at his best while
writing sensitive personal poems such as ‘Mero Choro(1948)’ a non metrical but carefully structured composition on the innocence of a child. Read More
