ek shama jale kaha parvano ki bhid yaha
raz ki bate kise batau zam pyar ka kise pilau
are hai koi diwana are hai koi diwana
are hai koi diwana dil ka fasana sune jo mera
ek shama jale kaha parvano ki bhid yaha

aise na aa mujhko na sata haye na mujhkjo jala
dekh idhar bhi zara baho ka har bana
aise na aa mujhko na sata haye na mujhkjo jala
dekh idhar bhi zara baho ka har bana
ek shama jale kaha parvano ki are bhid yaha

kehti hai ye kali ghata thodi si moh ko laga
isse hai nafrat agar labo se tu mere pi ja

A single lamp, where the moths gather near,
Secrets I hold, to whom shall I pour love's cheer?
Is there a mad one? Is there a mad one near?
A soul-touched heart, my tale to hear?
A single lamp, where the moths gather near.

Do not come so, do not torment me so,
Do not ignite me, see, a garland of arms to bestow.
Do not come so, do not torment me so,
Do not ignite me, see, a garland of arms to bestow.
A single lamp, where the moths gather near.

The dark clouds whisper, a touch, I implore,
If you hate this, from my lips then, pour.
The dark clouds whisper, a touch, I implore,
If you hate this, from my lips then, pour.
A single lamp, where the moths gather near,
Secrets I hold, to whom shall I pour love's cheer?
Is there a mad one? Is there a mad one near?
A soul-touched heart, my tale to hear?
A single lamp, where the moths gather near.
