1942- A Love Story

Here is a translation of a lyric from the Hindi film “1942- a Love Story”, vocalised by Kumar Sanu

 
 I saw a girl, and thought
 I saw a girl, and thought (she’s)
 Like a blossoming rose, like a poet’s dream,
 Like A bright ray, like a deer in a forest
 Like a full moon night, like soft talk
 Like a glowing lamp in a temple
 

 I saw a girl, and thought
 I saw a girl, and thought (she’s)
 Like face of dawn, like winter sun
 Like a violin string, like soul of colour
 Like zig-zag tendrils, like play of waves
 Like fragrance of cool winds
 I saw a girl, and felt
 

 I saw a girl, and thought
 I saw a girl and thought (she’s)
 Like a dancing peacock, like a string of silk
 Like a song of fairies, like fire on sandalwood
 Like a woman’s charms, like a juicy shower
 Like a slowly growing intoxication
 I saw a girl, and thought.. 

Original song

Gee – Challenge #176
