How to link multiple files from different subfolder to a new subfolder

Hi,

I have the following subfolder with files:
Code:
/data/a/1/xxx.txt
/data/b/2/yyy.txt
/data/c/3/zzz.txt

And i have a set of new folders which have exactly the same structure as above but different disk without the files:
Code:
/data_02/a/1/
/data_02/b/2/
/data_02/c/3/

Now i would like to have a command that i can do a soft link (ln -s) for all files to the respective directory like below:

Code:
/data_02/a/1/xxx.txt -> /data/a/1/xxx.txt
/data_02/b/2/yyy.txt ->/data/b/2/yyy.txt
/data_02/c/3/zzz.txt ->/data/c/3/zzz.txt

Please advice.
