This book contains two hundred and eighty folk songs gathered from various places in the “land of the Dragon”, Bhutan. Two eminent scholars, Lopen Nado and Dasho Lam Sangnak, have kindly consented to check the content of these songs and to write a preface.
In a second volume, Kunzang Tobgyal and Mani Dorji want to gather more songs, which will be presented according to their origin in the sixteen [now twenty] districts of Bhutan, and to the kind of celebration with which they are related, such as marriage, new year, consecration of a house, archery, and so forth.
