SURINDER KAUR .. Ek Nazar Woh Yaad Hai ..Madhubala Dilip Kumar


This mesmerizing and relishing poetry of the song is written by Dina Nath Madhok and beautiful melody is composed by Gyan Dutt Ji - one of the greatest music directors of his time for the movie Naa'o. 

My love to this rare and fascinating Hindi song by Surinder Kaur Ji, forced me to compile a video on my favourite couple Madhubala and Dilip Kumar.

THE LYRICS WITH POSSIBLE TRANSLATION ARE:

ایک نظر وہ یاد ہے ان کی ! 

Ek nazar woh yaad hai unki, 

(I still remember his that "gaze", 

جس نے دل پر وار کیا ! 

Jiss ne dil par waar kiya, 

which smashed into my heart!) 

ایک نظر وہ یاد ہے ان کی ! 

Ek nazar woh yaad hai unki ----------- 

ایک نظر اب دیکھ کے رووؑں ! 

Ek nazar abb dekh key roouN, 

(I am regretful to that "look", 

ہاےؑ رے دل کیوں پیار کیا ! 

Haaye re dil kyuN piyar kiya, 

that why did I surrender to love!) 

ایک نظر وہ یاد ہے ان کی ! 

Ek nazar woh yaad hai ----------- 

ایک نظر نے ایک نیؑی دنیا ھی بسا دی میرے لیےؑ ! 

Ek nazar ne, ek nayii duniya hi basa di merey liye, 

(That one stare changed whole of my life!), 

ایک نظر نے ساری دنیا سے ہم کو بے زار کیا ! 

Ek nazar ne sari duniya, se hum ko beizaar kiya, 

(That look made me disgusted from whole of the world!) 

ایک نظر وہ یاد ہے ان کی ! 

Ek nazar woh yaad hai ----------- 

ایک نظر میں سو سو ارمان دیکھے تھے ان آنکھوں میں ! 

Ek nazar mein, sou sou armaN daikhey theh unn ankhooN meiN, 

Through that look, I saw hundreds of dreams in those eyes!) 


ان آنکھوں کی ایک نظر نے جینا بھی دشوار کیا ! 

Unn ankhooN ki ek nazar ne, jeena bhi dushwaar kiya, 

(One stare of those eyes, made my life so difficult!) 

Ek nazar woh yaad hai unki, 
Jiss ne dil par waar kiya, 
Ek nazar woh yaad hai......
