Hindi Song Lyrical Transcription and Translation
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I am looking for a detail-oriented freelancer to create a clean, well-structured lyrical document for a Hindi song.
Scope of Work:
1. Find the FULL and correct original Hindi lyrics of the song (accurate and complete).
2. Format the lyrics into proper paragraph/verse structure exactly as in the original song (do NOT summarize or alter wording).
3. For EACH verse, provide a clear English translation directly underneath.
4. Maintain a verse-by-verse format (NOT line-by-line unless necessary for meaning clarity).
Formatting Requirements:
• Each verse in Hindi should be grouped as a paragraph
• Directly below each verse, include the English translation
• Maintain clean spacing between verses
• Keep formatting consistent throughout
Header Requirements (Top Right Corner):
Include the following details:
• Song Title
• Movie / Album Name (if applicable)
• Original Singer(s)
• Music Genre
• Emotional Meaning / Theme of the song
• Suggested performance settings (e.g., wedding, classical performance, devotional, romantic, etc.)
Quality Expectations:
• Accurate translation (not Google Translate quality)
• Maintain poetic meaning and emotional tone
• Proper grammar and clean English
• Attention to detail is critical
Deliverable:
• Final document in Word (.docx) or PDF
• Clean, elegant, and easy to read
Please include a small sample (1 verse + translation) with your proposal to be considered.
IMPORTANT: FORMAT MUST MATCH SAMPLE EXACTLY

Formatting Rules:
1. TITLE SECTION (CENTERED AT TOP)

- Do NOT rewrite or simplify lyrics
- English must be grammatically correct and natural
6. HEADER DETAILS (TOP RIGHT OR UNDER TITLE)
Include:
