aaj imtihan hai imtihan hai aaj imtihan hai
aaj ki rat tu mera mehman hai aaj imtihan hai

mast najar se mai jam tod dungi
pine nahi dungi mai pine nahi dungi
mast najar se mai jam tod dungi
pine nahi dungi mai pine nahi dungi
imtihan hai tera imtihan hai
imtihan hai tera imtihan hai

barso se pi raha hai mar mar ke ji raha hai
barso se pi raha hai mar mar ke ji raha hai
iska gulam banke shishe ka jam banke
girkar na tut jana mujhse na ruth jana
gum ka ilaj mai hu masti me aaj mai hu
kitni hai pyas raja aa mere pas aaja
matlab to hai nashe me pani se hoke may se
roko na maykashi se
par teri jindagi se meri jan hai
aaj imtihan hai
imtihan hai tera imtihan hai

ho najawa sharabi pine me hai kharabi
ho najawa sharabi pine me hai kharabi
ye sab hai khubsurat jis say ki hai jarurat
wo samne hai tere tu samne hai mere
dono ke dil hai bojhal diwar hai ye botal
haye botal me aksha tera mahfil me raksh mera
sagar se aa nikal ke lag ja gale machal ke
ye jahar tu na pina
ke tujhpe ye hasina aja meharban hai
aaj imtihan hai
imtihan hai tera imtihan hai

Today's the test, the trial's begun,
Tonight, you're my guest, until the dawn.

With eyes ablaze, I'll shatter the glass,
I won't let you drink, no, you won't pass.
With eyes ablaze, I'll shatter the glass,
I won't let you drink, no, you won't pass.
Your trial it is, your test to face.
Your trial it is, your test to embrace.

For years you've drunk, dying as you live,
For years you've drunk, no strength to give.
A slave to this, a glass of fragile sheen,
Don't fall and break, don't sever this scene.
I am the cure to sorrow's sting,
In revelry, I joy will bring.
How great your thirst? King, draw near to me,
From water's depths, now set your spirit free.
Don't heed the mockers, their empty pleas,
For your life's essence, this woman sees.
Today's the test, the trial's begun,
Your trial it is, your test to run.

Oh, the drunkard's whisper, in drink's dark art,
Oh, the drunkard's whisper, tearing at your heart.
All this beauty, a glass is needed, you see,
It faces you, and you face me.
Hearts both heavy, the bottle a wall,
In the bottle your image, in the gathering your call.
From the ocean, emerge, embrace, and sway,
This poison, refrain, turn away.
For to you, this beauty, her grace does impart,
Today's the test, a brand new start,
Your trial it is, your test to face,
Your trial it is, in this sacred space.
