Ajib Dastan Hai Yeh
Shankar-Jaikishan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

अजीब दास्तां है ये
कहाँ शुरू कहाँ खतम
ये मंज़िलें है कौन सी
न वो समझ सके न हम

अजीब दास्तां है ये
कहाँ शुरू कहाँ खतम
ये मंज़िलें है कौन सी
न वो समझ सके न हम

ये रोशनी के साथ क्यों
धुआँ उठा चिराग से
ये रोशनी के साथ क्यों
धुआँ उठा चिराग से
ये ख़्वाब देखती हूँ मैं
के जग पड़ी हूँ ख़्वाब से

अजीब दास्तां है ये
कहाँ शुरू कहाँ खतम
ये मंज़िलें है कौन सी
न वो समझ सके न हम

मुबारकें तुम्हें के तुम
किसीके नूर हो गए
मुबारकें तुम्हें के तुम
किसीके नूर हो गए
किसीके इतने पास हो
के सबसे दूर हो गए

अजीब दास्तां है ये
कहाँ शुरू कहाँ खतम
ये मंज़िलें है कौन सी
न वो समझ सके न हम

किसीका प्यार लेके तुम
नया जहाँ बसाओगे
किसीका प्यार लेके तुम
नया जहाँ बसाओगे
ये शाम जब भी आएगी
तुम हमको याद आओगे

अजीब दास्तां है ये
कहाँ शुरू कहाँ खतम




ये मंज़िलें है कौन सी
न वो समझ सके न हम

Overall Meaning

The song "Ajib Dastan Hai Yeh" is a nostalgic and mystifying composition by Shankar-Jaikishan, which translates to "This is a strange story". The song opens with the singer claiming that the story is strange and hard to comprehend, with no clear beginning or end. The mysterious journey is like an elusive destination that cannot be understood by anyone, neither the singer nor the listener.


The second verse reveals a glimpse of poetic imagery where the singer wonders why there is smoke rising from a seemingly well-lit lamp. She then mentions that she sees dreams so vividly that she often wakes up confused about whether she is still in the dream world or has made it back to reality.


The third verse talks about how the singer congratulates someone, as they have found the light of someone's love so close that ultimately, they have become distant from everyone else.


The final verse talks about how the singer is going to build a new world with someone special, and when they are reunited, they will remember this peculiar story that they shared. The song concludes with the singer declaring that this is a strange and unusual story that cannot be explained by anyone.


Overall, the song conveys a sense of mysticism and uncertainty, with the journey being more important than the destination.
