The new national anthem penned by Byakul Maila with Amber Gurung's music composition.

A cabinet meeting had approved Gurung's composition for the national anthem. Of the half a dozen compositions submitted to the cabinet for final selection – three by Gurung, and others by Nhyoo Bajracharya and Nepali Army (NA) – the cabinet selected Gurung's creation.

The new national anthem – written by Byakul Maila – will replace the "Shreeman Gambhir…" anthem, which was criticised for being merely a eulogy of monarchy. The earlier anthem was written by poet Chakrapani Chalise.

With the above song get the lyrics too:

सयौं थुँगा फूलका हामी एउटै माला नेपाली
सार्वभौम भई फैलिएका मेची- महाकाली।

सयौं थुँगा फूलका हामी एउटै माला नेपाली
सार्वभौम भई फैलिएका मेची- महाकाली।

प्रकृतिका कोटीकोटी सम्पदाको आँचल
वीरहरुका रगतले स्वतन्त्र र अटल

ज्ञानभूमि शान्तभूमि तराइ पहाड हिमाल
अखण्ड यो प्यारो हाम्रो मातृभूमि नेपाल

बहुल जाति भाषा धर्म संस्कृति छन् विशाल
अग्रगामी राष्ट्र हाम्रो जय जय नेपाल।
