Paroles et traduction Lata Mangeshkar - Ek Radha Ek Meera

Ek Radha Ek Meera

एक राधा एक मीरा, दोनों ने श्याम को चाहा
अंतर क्या दोनों की चाह में बोलो
एक प्रेम दीवानी एक दरस दीवानी
राधा ने मधुबन में ढूँढा, मीरा ने मन में पाया
राधा जिसे खो बैठी वो गोविन्द मीरा हाथ बिक आया
एक मुरली एक पायल, एक पगली एक घायल
अंतर क्या दोनों की प्रीत में बोलो
एक सूरत लुभानी एक मूरत लुभानी
एक प्रेम दीवानी एक दरस दीवानी
मीरा के प्रभु गिरिधर नागर, राधा के मनमोहन
राधा नित श्रृंगार करे, और मीरा बन गयी जोगन
एक रानी एक दासी, दोनों हरि प्रेम की प्यासी
अंतर क्या दोनों की तृप्ति में बोलो
एक जीत न मानी एक हार ने मानी
एक प्रेम दीवानी एक दरस दीवानी

A Radha, An Meera

A Radha and a Meera, both beloved by Shyam
Tell me, how does their love differ?
One is a lover of His form, the other, of His divine presence
Radha searched for Him in the groves of Madhuvan, while Meera found Him within her heart
Govinda, whom Radha had lost, became Meera's cherished possession
One, a flute, the other, anklets; one, a devotee, the other, wounded by love
Tell me, how does their love differ?
One, enchanting in appearance, the other, captivating in spirit
One is a lover of His form, the other, of His divine presence
Meera's Lord is the mountain-dwelling Govinda, while Radha's is the enchanting Govinda
Radha adorns herself daily, while Meera has become an ascetic
One is a queen, the other, a servant—both, thirsty for the love of Hari
Tell me, how does their fulfillment differ?
One won, while the other lost
One is a lover of His form, the other, of His divine presence
