On our way towards Machhapuchhre, my cousin takes a moment to take in the misty mountains of Nepal. We were beside a raging creek where we took a short break but continued on to MBC where we saw much more beautiful sights.

akele hain chale aao, jahaan ho
kahaan aawaaz de tum ko kahaan ho
tumhen hum dhoondhate hain, humein dil dhoondhataa hai
naa ab manjil hain koee, naa koee raasataa hai
ye tanahaee kaa aalam aur is par aap kaa gam
naa jeete hain, naa marate hain, bataao kyaa kare hum
akele hain chale aao, jahaan ho
kahaa aawaaj de tum ko kahaan ho
