Pehle Pehel Song Lyrics and Translation
From the movie – Umrao Jaan 2006
Tum jo paas aa gaaye
That you came so close
Hum jo sharma gaye
And I dropped my gaze
Raaz-e-dil paa gaaye
Found the secrets of our hearts
Tum bhi pehle pehel
You reached there first
Hum bhi pehle pehel
And I reached there first
Tum bhi pehle pehel
Hum bhi pehle pehel
Jab nigaahen mili
When our eyes met
Dil mein kaliyan khili
And buds grew in our hearts
Jaise lehraa gaaye
As though they were singing
Tum bhi pehle pehel
Hum bhi pehle pehel
Tum bhi pehle pehel
Hum bhi pehle pehel
Wasl ki raat mein
On this special night
Haath hai haath mein
Hand in hand
Baat hi baat mein
In our words
Baat ponchi kahaan
How far has the matter come
Wasl ki raat mein
Haath hai haath mein
Baat hi baat mein
Baat ponchi kahaan
Ik mulaqaat mein
In just one meeting
Dekha yeh khwaab toh
We saw this dream
Dil hai betaab toh
And the heart is in unrest
Dono ghabraa gaaye
And both of us are afraid
Tum bhi pehle pehel
Hum bhi pehle pehel
Tum bhi pehle pehel
Hum bhi pehle pehel
Ishq zanjeer hai
Love is a sharp knife
Ishq ik teer hai
Love is a piercing arrow
Ishq taqdeer hai
Love is everyone�s destiny
Ishq ik khaab hai
Love is like a dream
Ishq zanjeer hai
Ishq ik teer hai
Ishq taqdeer hai
Ishq ik khaab hai
Ishq tabeer hai
Jiska dil naam hai
The thing called the heart
Who toh ik jam hai
Is like a glass (of alcohol)
Jaam chhalka gaaye
And when the glass overflowed
Tum bhi pehle pehel
Hum bhi pehle pehel
Tum bhi pehle pehel
Hum bhi pehle pehel
Tum jo paas aa gaaye
Hum jo sharma gaye
Raaz-e-dil paa gaaye
Tum bhi pehle pehel
Hum bhi pehle pehel
Tum bhi pehle pehel
Hum bhi pehle pehel
Jab nigaahen mili
Dil mein kaliyan khili
Jaise lehraa gaaye
Tum bhi pehle pehel
Hum bhi pehle pehel
Tum bhi pehle pehel
Hum bhi pehle pehel
