le chef du nuit, your point is spont on ,especially when all their anthem does is gratify the queen..at least ours mentions the " gambhir nepali.." and not just the raja ko badhai chadhai.. btw..take a look at the translation of the french national anthem, " la marseillaise" : Translation : Arise children of the fatherland The day of glory has arrived Against us tyranny's Bloody standard is raised Listen to the sound in the fields The howling of these fearsome soldiers They are coming into our midst To cut the throats of your sons and consorts To arms citizens Form your battalions March, march Let impure blood Water our furrows ( and it continues...) funny how that would be the perfect song for the maobadis in our country today..i guess the french revolution was as ferocious as the insurgency taking place in our country or even worse..
