Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
वो इक दीवाना
तारों भरी रात में पहली मुलाक़ात में
बस उसने देखा मैने देखा प्यार हो गया
प्यार हो गया हो गया
बस उसने देखा मैने देखा प्यार हो गया
प्यार हो गया हो गया
मैं इक हसीना वो इक दीवाना
उसने देखा मैने देखा प्यार हो गया
प्यार हो गया हो गया
बस उसने देखा मैने देखा प्यार हो गया
प्यार हो गया हो गया
कैसे शुरू हुई दिल की कहानी सुनो
कैसे शुरू हुई दिल की कहानी सुनो
मैं शर्मा रही थी कहीं जा रही थी
किया इक इशारा किसी ने पुकारा
ए जी सुनिए तो
मैने देखा घूम के उसने देखा झूम के बस
उसने देखा मैने देखा प्यार हो गया
प्यार हो गया हो गया
बस उसने देखा मैने देखा प्यार हो गया
प्यार हो गया हो गया
दो दिन ना मैं मिली उसका मुझे खत मिला
दो दिन ना मैं मिली उसका मुझे खत मिला
लिखा था सितमगर ना आई तू जाकर
ख़ता हो गयी क्या खफा हो गयी क्या
ओ हो
दो दिन में ये हाल है देखो तो कमाल हैं
बस उसने देखा मैने देखा प्यार हो गया
प्यार हो गया हो गया
मैं इक हसीना वो इक दीवाना
तारों भरी रात में पहली मुलाक़ात में
बस उसने देखा मैने देखा प्यार हो गया
प्यार हो गया हो गया
बस उसने देखा मैने देखा प्यार हो गया
प्यार हो गया हो गया हो गया हो गया

The second verse delves deeper into the beginning of their love story, with the singer feeling shy and hesitant while someone calls out to them. The playful and flirtatious interactions between the two characters are suggested through actions like spinning and dancing. The lyrics express a sense of excitement and joy as the love between them intensifies, showcasing the carefree and passionate nature of their budding romance.
The third paragraph introduces a moment of separation and longing, as the singer receives a letter from their beloved after two days of not meeting. The letter hints at potential misunderstandings or disagreements, leading to a feeling of heartache and restlessness. Despite the distance, the intensity of their emotions only grows stronger, as evidenced by the disbelief and amazement expressed in the lyrics.
In the final repetition of the chorus, the lyrics reinforce the theme of love blossoming under the night sky during their first encounter. The use of vivid imagery, such as a radiant star-filled night and the magic of their initial meeting, adds to the romantic and dreamy quality of the song.

मैं इक हसीना
I am a beautiful woman
वो इक दीवाना
He is a crazy lover
तारों भरी रात में पहली मुलाक़ात में
In a night full of stars, in our first meeting
बस उसने देखा मैने देखा प्यार हो गया
Just by seeing each other, we fell in love
प्यार हो गया हो गया
Love has happened, love has happened
कैसे शुरू हुई दिल की कहानी सुनो
Listen to how the story of our hearts began
मैं शर्मा रही थी कहीं जा रही थी
I was blushing, I was going somewhere
किया इक इशारा किसी ने पुकारा
Someone signaled and called out
मैने देखा घूम के उसने देखा झूम के बस
I saw him spinning, he saw me swaying, and then
दो दिन ना मैं मिली उसका मुझे खत मिला
I did not meet him for two days, I received a letter from him
लिखा था सितमगर ना आई तू जाकर
He wrote 'do not come, oh oppressor'
ख़ता हो गयी क्या खफा हो गयी क्या
Was it a mistake or did he become angry?
दो दिन में ये हाल है देखो तो कमाल हैं
In just two days, this situation is amazing
