Optimism
असारमा आली लगाए पो मंसिरमा बाली खान पाइन्छ
Asaar maa aali lagaaye po mangshi maa baali khaana paayinchha.
One reaps the rewards of hard work in due time
Akat ko kulo, bikat ko khet, birsechhu daajai silok ko fed
People often forget the help & advice provided by others but remember the benefits they received
Asaar maa aali lagaaye po mangshi maa baali khaana paayinchha.
One reaps the rewards of hard work in due time
Asar ma mit laaye hila ma haat, mangsir ma mit laaye fila ma haat.
The rewards of labor vary according to the season
Akabar raaja, birbal kaaji, insaaf dinchhan khusiraaji
Justice is served by both the powerful and the wise
Nepali proverbs reuse the same images — the same animals, tools and weather — to land different lessons. These use some of the same words.
Thapa gayo Nepal, Khet bhayo sastai, kulo lagyo pahiro le, jasta ko tastai.
Kuro ra kulo jataa lagyo tyatai jaanchha.
