pehlii dafaa
Touch on each word to display its meaning
pɛhlii dafaa
For the First Time
dil kahe kahaaniyaaN pɛhlii dafaa
armaanoN meN ravaaniyaaN pɛhlii dafaa
ho gayaa begaanaa maiN hosh se pɛhlii dafaa
pyaar ko pɛhchaanaa eHsaas hai ye nayaa
My heart tells stories for the first time.
There is pointedness in my desires for the first time.
I became stranger to my senses for the first time.
To recognize love, this is a new feeling
sunaa hai sunaa hai
ye rasm-e-vafaa hai
jo dil pe nashaa hai
vo pɛhlii dafaa hai
[ all stanza x2 ]
I have heard, I have heard
(that) this is the tradition of faithfulness
It's the first time
that my heart has been intoxicated
[all stanza x2]
kabhii dard sii kabhii zard sii
zindagii benaam thii
kahiiN chaahteN huii meharbaan
haath baRh ke thaamtii
ek vo nazar ek vo nigaah
ruuH meN shaamil is taraH
ban gayaa afsaanaa ek baat se pɛhlii dafaa
paa liyaa hai Thikaanaa
baaNhoN kii hai panaah
Sometimes like pain, sometimes like fading,
my life was unmentionable.
Sometimes my appetites were kind,
coming forward and holding my hand.
That one look, that one sight
is present in my soul in (such) a way (that)
I became a story from one word, for the first time.
I have got a home
It is the shelter of (your) arms
sunaa hai sunaa hai
ye rasm-e-vafaa hai
jo dil pe nashaa hai
vo pɛhlii dafaa hai
I have heard, I have heard
(that) this is the tradition of faithfulness
It's the first time
that my hearts has been intoxicated
lage be-vajah alfaaz jo
vo zaruurat ho gae
taqdiir ke kuchh faisal le
jo Ganiimat ho gae
badlaa huaa har pal hai
rɛhtii xumaarii har jagah
pyaar thaa anjaanaa
huaa saath meN pɛhlii dafaa
ye asar ab jaanaa
kyaa rang hai ye chaRhaa
Those words which seemed meaningless
now became a necessity
Some decisions of destiny that were made,
became a blessing.
Every moment becomes distinct
Ecstasy remains everywhere.
Love was unknown,
and kept me company for the first time
Now I must understand this effect:
Is this color possessing me?
sunaa hai sunaa hai
ye rasm-e-vafaa hai
jo dil pe nashaa hai
vo pɛhlii dafaa hai
[ all stanza x2 ]
I have heard, I have heard
(that) this is the tradition of faithfulness
It's the first time
that my heart has been intoxicated
[all stanza x2]
