Bade Achhe Lagte Hain English Lyrics
Bade Achhe Lagte Hain… Kya?
They all seem so beautiful… what?
Yeh Dharti, Yeh Nadiya, Yeh Raina… Aur… Aur Tum
This earth, this river, this night… and… and you.
Bade Achhe Lagte Hain
They all seem so beautiful.
Yeh Dharti, Yeh Nadiya, Yeh Raina… Aur… Aur Tum
This earth, this river, this night… and… and you.
O Maanjhi Re, Jaiyo Piya Ke Des
O boatman, take me to my beloved’s land.
Hum Tum Kitne Paas Hain, Kitne Door Hain Chand-Sitaare
You and I are so close, while the moon and stars are so far away.
Sach Poocho Toh Mann Ko Jhoothe Lagte Hain Yeh Saare
To tell you the truth, all of these seem unreal to my heart.
Hum Tum Kitne Paas Hain, Kitne Door Hain Chand-Sitaare
You and I are so close, while the moon and stars are so far away.
Sach Poocho Toh Mann Ko Jhoothe Lagte Hain Yeh Saare
To tell you the truth, all of these seem unreal to my heart.
Magar Sacche Lagte Hain
But what feels real to me is…
Yeh Dharti, Yeh Nadiya, Yeh Raina… Aur… Aur Tum
This earth, this river, this night… and… and you.
Tum In Sabko Chhod Ke Kaise Kal Subah Jaogi
How will you leave all this behind and go tomorrow morning?
Mere Saath Inhe Bhi Toh Tum Yaad Bahut Aaogi
Just like me, these too will miss you dearly.
Tum In Sabko Chhod Ke Kaise Kal Subah Jaogi
How will you leave all this behind and go tomorrow morning?
Mere Saath Inhe Bhi Toh Tum Yaad Bahut Aaogi
Just like me, these too will miss you dearly.
Bade Achhe Lagte Hain
They all seem so beautiful.
Yeh Dharti, Yeh Nadiya, Yeh Raina… Aur… Aur Tum
This earth, this river, this night… and… and you.
Bade Achhe Lagte Hain
They all seem so beautiful.
