Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Song Lyrics and Translation
From the movie – 1942 A Love Story
ek ladaki ko dekha to aisa laga…
when I saw this girl, she seemed to me like…
jaise khilata gulaab
like a blooming rose;
jaise shaayar ka khvaab
like a poet’s dream;
jaise ujali kiran
like a glowing ray of light;
jaise ban mein hiran
like a deer in the forest;
jaise chaandani raat
like a moonlit night;
jaise narami baat
like a soft word;
jaise mandir mein ho ek jalta diya
like a candle burning in the temple.
ek ladaki ko dekha to aisa lagaa…
when I saw this girl, she seemed to me like…
jaise subah kaa ruup
like the beauty of the morning;
jaise saradi ki dhuup
like winter sunshine;
jaise vinaa ki taan
like a note from the lute;
jaise rangon ki jaan
like the essence of all color;
jaise balakhaayein bel
like a twisting vine;
jaise laharon ka khel
like the play of waves;
jaise khushbuu liye aaye thandi havaa
like a cool scented wind.
ek ladaki ko dekha to aisa laga…
when I saw this girl, she seemed to me like…
jaise naachataa mor
like a dancing feather;
jaise resham ki dor
like a silken thread;
jaise pariyon ka raag
like a fairy melody;
jaise sandal ki aag
like the fire of sandalwood;
jaise solah singaar
like the sixteen (traditional) ornaments of beauty;
jaise ras ki phuhaar
like a refreshing mist;
jaise aahistaa aahistaa badhta nasha
like a slowly growing feeling of intoxication.
ek ladaki ko dekha to aisa laga…
when I saw this girl, she seemed to me like…
