Sa(स) is a folk melody (Bhaka) originating from the mid-hills area of Karnali, mainly around Dolpa district. This song is a mixture of Deuda and the Jhyaure rhythm practised in Dolpa District of Western Nepal. Laxmikant Upadhaya, a Dolpa resident, has been a source for this song.
Music when performed properly can resemble its root and that is exactly what Nepathya has been successful in doing with songs in the past. The opening track of album 'BhedaKoo Oon Jasto', 'Sa Karnali' is an example. It can take you to a journey of Dolpa and its surroundings. The visualisation of this song in this remote and picturesque location of Dolpa has certainly added dimensions to the song and to the place as well. This music video was filmed in Dolpa, mainly in and around Jufal, Dunai, and Phoksundo Lake.
Thinle, the charismatic actor of The Caravan fame, faced the camera for the first time after his debut in the Oscar nominated film Caravan.
Thinley and Amrit are traders travelling on business. The much older Thinley hands Amrit a 'Company Mala' a necklace of silver coins from colonial India and another lined with the tusks of a musk deer so that the young man may get himself a bride. The necklaces are still considered a symbol of wealth and are in the region. They are also linked with Nepal's long history of migrant labour and trade connections down south in India and up north in Tibet.

Lyrics:
स, जौका बारी, गौका पुला कम्पनी
स, पुल बान्दी जया बैनै कम्पनी
स, हास्दैँ खेल्दै दिन काटम्ला कम्पनी
स, घरबार्या न भया बैनै कम्पनी
झल्काइदऊ झल्काइदऊे
गलैको कम्पनी माला झल्काइदऊ
स, पुर्शो डाफेँ इजर खन्दो कमपनी
स, माउ डाँफ्या जिलाउँदा बैनै कम्पनी
स, कुहिरी जन लाग्न्या माया कम्पनी
स, हिउज नबिलाउदो बैनै कम्पनी
झल्काइदऊ झल्काइदऊ
गलैको कम्पनी माला झल्काइदऊ
स, बाटै मुनी गयाल पाक्यो कम्पनी
स, निउताइदेऊ र खान्छु बरै कम्पनी
स, मायादेऊ र खल्ती हाल्छु कम्पनी
स, बिदालेऊ र जान्छु बरै कम्पनी
झल्काइदऊ झल्काइदऊ
गलैको कम्पनी माला झल्काइदऊ

Sa, jauka bari, gauka pulaa kampani
Sa, pulaa bandi jaya bainai kampani
Sa, hasdai kheldai din katamla kampani
Sa, gharabarya na bhaya bainai kampani
Jhalkaideu jhalkaideu
Galaiko kampani mala jhalkaideu
Sa, pursho daphe ijar khando kamapani
Sa, mau danphya jilaunda bainai kampani
Sa, kuhiri jana lagnya maya kampani
Sa, hiuja nabilaudo bainai kampani
Jhalkaideu jhalkaideu
Galaiko kampani mala jhalkaideu
Sa, batai muni gayal pakyo kampani
Sa, niutaideu ra khanchhu barai kampani
Sa, mayadeu ra khalti halchhu kampani
Sa, bidaleu ra janchhu barai kampani
Jhalkaideu jhalkaideu
Galaiko kampani mala jhalkaideu

Sa... I wish I could spend time laughing and playing with Jaya (a village girl)
Who is there bundling hay in the malt fields...
Oh ...how I wish she were unmarried...
Oh! Show the garland shining round your neck... garland round your neck
Sa... The Male pheasant is digging the ground in search of grains...
The Female Pheasant is helping the male to clean the ground...
This jungles-love looks like the mist that rises up in no time
This jungle-love seems like the one that melt away with sunshine
Oh! Show the garland shining round your neck... garland round your neck
Sa... Gayal is ripened in the roadside tree
Wish someone would bend the branches to pluck one
Give your lovely only to me...
that I will enshrine in my inner heart
If not... say goodbye to me
I will be on my way again...
Oh! Show the garland shining round your neck... garland round your neck.
