Nepali people still recite his poems. His poetry, which is about patriotism and national unity, still touch our hearts. I still remember those childhood days when we used to mug up his poems and sing in a tune among friends hailing our ancestors for their bravery. In the present context where the country is on the verge of division on the basis of caste, religion, culture, ethnicity, his powerful words urging for national unity is important as it is clear that without national unity among people of all walks of life, mission of national prosperity cannot be accomplished. In this situation, his words convey the message of bonding and unity among Nepalis maintaining brotherhood. Many of his poems have music in them which is why they have been converted into songs. And these too illustrate the glorious triumph of our ancestors which makes us proud till today. Being one of his fans, I regard Ghimire as the deserving personality for the Nobel Prize in the field of Literature from Nepal.
