Well, you can try the attached script. It will convert all occurences of
        \mathbf{\alpha} => \boldsymbol{\alpha}
whilst leaving any non-greek letters unchanged. It will not convert multiple 
instances like 
        \mathbf{\alpha\beta} => \boldsymbol{\alpha\beta}
that is too hard.

In future, you should employ WYSIWYM on your document. Ie, the thing is a 
\Vector or a \Matrix etc. The typesetting of this should be defined once 
and once only...

Use so:
$ nirmal.sh yourfile.lyx > output.lyx
