Aise Lagi Lagan

Chorus

Aisi lagi lagan, Meera ho gayi magan

Such was the attachment — Meera became lost in bliss

Woh to gali-gali Hari gun gaane lagi

She began singing Hari’s glories through every lane

Aisi lagi lagan, Meera ho gayi magan

Such was the attachment — Meera became lost in bliss

Woh to gali-gali Hari gun gaane lagi

She began singing Hari’s glories through every lane

Hai aankh woh jo Shyam ka darshan kiya kare

Blessed is the eye that beholds Shyam

Hai sheesh jo Prabhu charan mein vandan kiya kare

Blessed is the head that bows at the Lord’s feet

Bekaar woh mukh hai jo rahe vyarth baaton mein

Useless is the mouth given to idle talk

Mukh woh hai jo Hari naam ka sumiran kiya kare

Blessed is the mouth that remembers Hari’s name

Heere motiyon se nahi shobha hai haath ki

Jewels do not adorn the hand — the hand that worships God does

Hai haath woh jo Bhagwan ka poojan kiya kare

Even dying, that soul lives on in immortal name

Heere mar kar bhi amar naam hai us jeev ka jag mein

Who offers life itself in love for the Lord

Prabhu prem mein balidaan jo jeevan kiya kare

Such was the attachment — Meera became lost in bliss

Aisi lagi lagan, Meera ho gayi magan

She began singing Hari’s glories through every lane

Woh to gali-gali Hari gun gaane lagi

Raised in palaces, she went forth as a yogini

Mahalon mein pali, ban ke jogan chali

Queen Meera was called mad with love

Meera rani deewani kahane lagi

Such was the attachment — Meera became lost in bliss

Aisi lagi lagan, Meera ho gayi magan

None could stop her, none could hold her back

Koi roke nahi, koi toke nahi

Meera sang Govind-Gopal

Meera Govind-Gopal gaane lagi

Seated with saints, dyed in Mohan’s colour

Baithi santom ke sang, rangi Mohan ke rang

Meera won over her Beloved

Meera premi-pritam ko manane lagi

She began singing Hari’s glories through every lane

Woh to gali-gali Hari gun gaane lagi

When Rana gave poison, she drank it as nectar

Rana ne vish diya, maano amrit piya

Meera merged into the ocean like a river

Meera sagar mein sarita samane lagi

She bore countless sorrows, yet her lips said Govind

Dukh laakhon sahe, mukh se Govind kahe

Meera sang Govind-Gopal

Meera Govind-Gopal gaane lagi

She began singing Hari’s glories through every lane

Woh to gali-gali Hari gun gaane lagi

Such was the attachment — Meera became lost in bliss

Aisi lagi lagan, Meera ho gayi magan

She began singing Hari’s glories through every lane

Woh to gali-gali Hari gun gaane lagi

Raised in palaces, she went forth as a yogini

Mahalon mein pali, ban ke jogan chali

Queen Meera was called mad with love

Meera rani deewani kahane lagi

Such was the attachment — Meera became lost in bliss

Aisi lagi lagan, Meera ho gayi magan
