Aisi Lagi Lagan – The Eternal Attachment to Shree Hari

Introduction

There are songs that entertain, and then there are songs that awaken the soul. “Aisi Lagi Lagan”, sung with heartfelt devotion by Lata Mangeshkar, is one such spiritual gem that transcends time, language, and form. This bhajan was originally written and composed by Sant Surdas, one of the greatest devotees of Lord Krishna, who was blind by the eyes but had the clearest inner vision.

This song expresses what happens when divine love (bhakti) completely overtakes the heart. It’s not just a song — it's a cry from the soul that has fallen madly in love with Shree Krishna, unable to think, breathe, or exist without Him.

Lyrics – Aisi Lagi Lagan

1. Eyes, Lips & Hands Devoted to the Lord

Hai aankh woh, hai aankh woh, jo Shyam ka darshan kiya kare
Hai sheesh jo Prabhu charan mein, vandan kiya kare
Bekaar woh mukh hai, jo rahe vyarth baaton mein
Mukh woh hai, jo Hari naam ka sumiran kiya kare

Heere moti se nahi shobha hai haath ki
Hai haath, jo Bhagwan ka poojan kiya kare
Mar kar bhi amar naam hai us jeev ka jag mein
Prabhu prem mein balidan jo jeevan kiya kare

2. Aisi Lagi Lagan – The Flame of Devotion

Aisi lagi lagan, Meera ho gayi magan
Woh to gali-gali Hari gun gaane lagi

Mahalon mein pali, banake jogan chali
Meera Rani, diwani kehne lagi

Rana ne vish diya, mano amrit piya
Meera saagar mein, sarita samaane lagi
Dukh lakho sahe, mukh se 'Govind' kahe
Meera 'Govind Gopala' gaane lagi

Koi roke nahin, koi toke nahin
Meera 'Govind Gopala' gaane lagi
Baithi santon ke sang, range Mohan ke rang
Meera premi, Preetam ko manane lagi

3. Refrain of Divine Madness

Woh to gali-gali Hari gun gaane lagi
Aisi lagi lagan, Meera ho gayi magan

Mahalon mein pali, banake jogan chali
Meera Rani, diwani kehne lagi

Aisi lagi lagan, Meera ho gayi magan
