Roappal Kohunn Kalas Taaj

Karaan Yaarie Panun Raaj

Raesseull *Vehakh Turun *Maagh

Natchaan Vigienni Gyavaan Raag

“ Panun Bagh Matchhueil Bagh

Hutyein Boneiyee Yeityein Naag

Panun Bagh Matchhueil Bagh”

( Moti Lal saqi )

Snow clad silvery peaks ,

Like crowns on Mountain heads .

And over these mountains ,

Pine trees holding their own Kingdom.

A pleasurable Vaisakha !

A Cold Maagha !

Fairies Dancing singing Raagas ,

That is my Garden , My love filled Garden .

Endowed with Chinars Trees and springs ,

That is my Garden , My love filled Garden .

*Vehakh is the month of Vaisakh.It is spring time or Bahaar in kashmir.Maagh is the winter month or Magha.It is cold and snow time in kashmir.
