Early Life and
Challenges
Bhim Birag's childhood was marked by simplicity and a love
for sports, particularly football. However, fate dealt him a harsh blow when he
became a victim of intentional attack during a football match, causing health
issues that would plague him for years to come. The economic struggles of his
family compounded his woes, and the untimely demise of his father further
exacerbated their hardships. Left to navigate life's challenges with his ailing
mother, Bhim found himself in the care of his maternal uncle's household, where
he endured disparaging remarks that instilled in him a profound sense of
determination.
Discovery of
Artistic Passion
Despite the adversities that beset him, Bhim discovered
solace and passion in the realms of literature and music. Confined to his home
due to his health condition, he immersed himself in the harmonium, piano,
guitar, and tabla that adorned his household. The influence of his father and
uncle, both esteemed artists in their own right, further fueled his artistic aspirations.
It was during this period of isolation that the moniker 'Birag' emerged,
shedding the burdens of his past and embracing a new identity intertwined with
his artistic endeavors.
Journey to
Makawanpur
In 2026 B.S., Bhim Birag embarked on a transformative
journey to Makawanpur, where he assumed the role of an editor at the newspaper
Narayani. Makawanpur, with its enchanting landscapes and vibrant cultural
milieu, became the crucible in which Birag's creativity flourished. His deep
connection with the region, particularly Hetauda, provided him with the
inspiration to create timeless works that would resonate with generations to
come.
Artistic
Collaborations and Contributions
Bhim Birag's contributions to Nepali literature and music
are unparalleled, earning him accolades and recognition from peers and
aficionados alike. His collaborations with renowned artists such as Narayan
Gopal Gurbacharya yielded masterpieces that transcended the boundaries of genre
and language. From poignant ghazals to soul-stirring melodies, Birag's oeuvre
mirrored the spectrum of human emotions and experiences.
Philosophy of
Life and Legacy
Birag's philosophy of life was imbued with profound wisdom
and introspection. He believed that life was akin to music, with every step and
utterance composing a symphony of existence. Despite facing myriad hardships,
he remained steadfast in his belief that happiness could be found amidst life's
trials and tribulations. His songs, infused with poignant lyrics and haunting
melodies, served as a beacon of hope for those grappling with their own
struggles.
Final Years
and Passing
In his later years, Bhim Birag was cared for by his
daughter, Abha, following the loss of his beloved wife, Anu Devi Chhetri.
Despite battling diabetes and hypertension, Birag continued to imbue his life
with creativity and passion until his final moments. On Falgun 20, 2068 B.S.,
he breathed his last while undergoing treatment at Patan Hospital, Lalitpur.
Though he departed from this world, his legacy endures through the timeless
creations that continue to resonate with audiences across generations.

human soul and the transformative power of art. From humble beginnings to
becoming a titan in Nepali literature and music, his journey serves as a source
of inspiration for aspiring artists and individuals alike. Through his words
and melodies, Birag continues to weave a tapestry of emotions that transcends
the boundaries of time and space, reminding us that the true essence of life
lies in the pursuit of creativity, compassion, and the relentless pursuit of
our dreams.
मृत्यु सत्ताको यथार्थ
अस्थिर, आक्रान्त मस्तिष्कको
संस्कार, आचार र सिद्धान्त
बलात्कृत भइरहेछन् अहोरात्र
बाँच्ने बाध्यताको उपक्रमले लखेटिरहेछ मान्छेलाई ।
आडम्बरको खोक्रो खोलभित्र
जत्तिकै अट्टाहास गरे पनि
त्रासको अव्यक्त आहालमा डुबेका छन् मान्छेहरू ।
अरूलाई छेकबार लाएर
दुनो सोझ्याउने खेलाडी भइरहेछ मान्छे
स्वाभिमान ताछिए पनि
विवेकजत्तिकै रगतपिच्छे भए पनि
चूपचाप सहनुबाहेक
अन्य विकल्प छैन निरीह मान्छेसँग ।
आँखाले कातरतापूर्वक हेरिरहनु परेको छ
आफ्नै हातले सिलबन्दी गरेका ओंठहरू
“हो मा हो” लाई उनेर
जिन्दगीबिनाको जिन्दगी खेपिरहेछ मान्छे ।
बर्बरताका व्यवसायीहरूसँग
सम्झौता नगर्नेहरू लखेटिन्छन् खरायोजस्तै
भत्केको आकाशबाट बाह्रैमास
दुर्भाग्यको झरी बर्सिरहन्छ
बाटाहरूलाई भँगालाहरूले छुट्याइरहन्छन्
बेसहाराहरू विवशताको सङ्गालोले बाँधिएर
अनैतिकतासँग हातेमालो गरिरहेका छन् ।
प्रपञ्चपूर्ण प्रतीक्षाको डाँडापारि पुगेर
थकाइ मार्नेछ जिन्दगीले एकदिन
स्वदृष्टि सामु बितेका आपराधिक घडीहरू
ऐना भैदिनेछन् साक्षीस्वरूप ।
मृत्यु सत्ताको अगाडि
सम्पूर्ण नाफा–नोक्सानको हिसाब बुझाउनुपर्ने क्षण
कति कष्टकर हुन्छ भन्नेबाट निःशङ्क
आफ्नै जोड घटाउमा
व्यस्त छन् मान्छेहरू ।
अरूलाई हँसाउनेहरू देखेँ
आफू रोएर अरूलाई हँसाउनेहरू देखेँ
अरूमाथि हाँस्नेमाथि हाँस्नेहरू देखेँ
सहन त सक्ने रहेछ मानिसले पीडाहरू
चोटले त ढुङ्गा पनि टुक्रिरहेको देखेँ
उज्यालो दिन्छ कालो रातलाई पनि हीरा
घाममा त ऐना पनि टल्किरहेको देखेँ
पहाडलाई पनि टेकी उठिरहने आकाश
सागरमा खसेर पनि डुबिरहेको देखेँ
समयभन्दा बलियो कोही हुँदैन रहेछ, विराग
मन्दिरहरूलाई पनि भत्किरहेको देखेँ
आफूलाई खोज्दा हराएकाहरू
जोगिनु जीवन हो
मासिनु मृत्यु
जन्म–मृत्युका दुई किनाराबीच
जीवन बगिरहेको छ
हरेक पलसँग सम्झौता गर्दै
परिस्थितिलाई पछार्दै
आफू पछारिँदै
उठ्दै, खस्दै
जिन्दगी बाँचिरहेछ समयको दयामा
उँभो लाग्न बल चाहिन्छ
खस्नलाई चाहिँदो रहेनछ सहयोग कसैको
आकाशमा जून–तारा हुन्छन्
आ–आफ्नैसंसारभित्र
आ–आफ्नै व्यथाहरूबीच
कसैलाई झर्न नपाउने व्यथा
कसैलाई झर्नुपर्ने नियत
कस्तो विडम्बनापूर्ण जिन्दगी
अनुहारमा आँखाहरू हुनु अपरिहार्यझैँ
प्रत्येक छातीभित्र
एउटा अनिवार्य मुटु पनि हुन्छ
ढुङ्गैढुङ्गाद्वारा निर्मित पहाड मात्र हुन सक्छ
मान्छे ढुङ्गा हो, न पहाड
नाटक गर्दैमा कोही पनि पहाड हुन सक्दैन
पानी–पानी छ समुद्रभरि
समुद्र डुब्दैन किन कहिल्यै पनि
तापैताप छ सूर्यभरि
किन सूर्य डढ्दैन कहिल्यै
जिन्दगीदेखि सायद भागिरहेछ जिन्दगी
घटनाहरूको तालमा डुबुल्किँदै
दुर्घटनाका छालहरूलाई छल्दै
हूलका हूल मृत्युहरू दौडिरहेको सडकमा
साङ्केतिक बन्दी भएर बाँचिरहेछ जिन्दगी
पाइतालाले कति डोबहरू छोडिसकेर पनि
रित्तिँदैन पाइतालाहरू
रित्तिने दुर्भाग्य मान्छेले मात्र बोक्नुपर्ने हुन्छ
पानीको थोपा पानीमै बिलाएजस्तै
मान्छेको हूलमा मान्छे डराइरहेछ
कसले खोज्ने कसलाई
स्वयम् आफू हराएको ठाउँमा
आफ्नै पहिचान भत्केको गाउँमा
?… ।
शङ्कालु आँखाहरू
जिन्दगीका घुम्तीहरूमा
समयले साथ दिएन भने दुर्घटना हुन सक्छ
आँखाहरू शङ्कालु हुन सक्छन्
केही सपनाहरू
केही बिपनाहरूबाहेक
मान्छेहरूसँग हुन्छ नै के ?
सपनालाई देख्ने
बिपनालाई भोग्ने
अधिकार सुरक्षित छ सबैमा
ती सपनाहरू बाँडचुँड गर्छ मान्छे
ती बिपनाहरू पनि भागबन्डा गर्छ मान्छे
काँचो सूर्यसँगै उदाएर
पाकेको सूर्यसँगै अस्ताउँछ मान्छे
टुकीजस्तै जलेर
आफू अँध्यारो हुन्छ मान्छे
अरूकै लागि बाँचेका मान्छेहरू
आफ्नै घुम्तीको दुर्घटनाभित्र मर्नुपर्छ
आफ्नै परिवेशले थिचिएर छोपिनुपर्छ
यसरी मान्छे सहाय पनि छ
मान्छेय सरी असहाय पनि
परिक्रमा
पूर्व उदाउँछ
पश्चिम अस्ताउँछ
झोक्रेको साँझपछि
रात निदाउँछ ।
अनि ताक पारी बसेका सम्झनाहरू
मुटु कोट्याउँछन्
ओल्टाउँछन्
पल्टाउँछन्
रात छर्लङ्ग पार्छन् ।
अनि पछि फेरि…
पूर्व उदाउँछ
पश्चिम अस्ताउँछ ।
जिन्दगी
जति हुल भएपनि
एक्लिन सक्छ मानिस
होइन भने जिन्दगीको हाहाकार बोकेर
को बाँच्न सक्थ्यो र ?
जहाँ, बिहान, साँझ र रातहरूले
जिन्दगीलाई अजिंगरले जस्तो डसिरहेको होस्
जहाँ, खतराको आभासभित्र
मुटुले सास फेरिरहेको होस्
जहाँ, आफैँसँग आफैँ
खुल्न डराइरहेको होस् मानिस
जहाँ, आफैँसँग आफैँ
आँखा बचाएर हिँडिरहेको होस् मानिस
जहाँ मानिससँग पन्छेर
हिँडिरहेको होस् जिन्दगी ।
