ek shama do parwaane
mile pyaar ke jahaan mein
khoon ki nadiyaa bah na jaayen
aaj shabistaan mein
kabhi haar kabhi jeet, yahi zindagi ki reet
kabhi haar kabhi jeet, yahi zindagi ki reet
yahi zindagi ki reet
yahi zindagi ki reet

pyaar ka ye khel hai, pyaar ka ye khel
haar ke baaji jo lagaaye, khele wahi khel
pyaar ka ye khel hai, pyaar ka ye khel
haar ki baaji jo lagaaye, khele wahi khel
ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
jise karni ho preet, sikhe marne ki reet
kabhi haar kabhi jeet, yahi zindagi ki reet
yahi zindagi ki reet

faisle pyaar ke, hote hain shamsheer se
naseeb likhe jaate hain, khoon ki lakeer se
faisle pyaar ke, hote hain shamsheer se
naseeb likhe jaate hain, khoon ki lakeer se
ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
ye hai ulfat ki reet, kabhi haar kabhi jeet
yehi zindagi ki reet
yehi zindagi ki reet

ik taraf hai duniyadaari, ik taraf hai pyaar
kiski hogi jeet bolo, kiski hogi haar
ik taraf hai duniyadaari, ik taraf hai pyaar
kiski hogi jeet bolo, kiski hogi haar
ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
raja pyaar ki hogi jeet
raja pyaar ki hogi jeet
kabhi haar kabhi jeet, yahi zindagi ki reet
yahi zindagi ki reet

lad nahin sakta koi, duniyaa mein taqdeer se
hoga shikhari ghaayal, apne hi teer se
lad nahin sakta koi, duniyaa mein taqdeer se
hoga shikhari ghaayal, apne hi teer se
ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
isko samjho na sangeet, ye hai zindagi ka geet
kabhi haar kabhi jeet, yahi zindagi ki reet
yahi zindagi ki reet

lad nahin sakta koi, duniyaa me taqdeer se
hoga shikhari ghaayal, apne hi teer se
hoga shikhari ghaayal, apne hi teer se
hoga shikhari ghaayal, apne hi teer se
hoga shikhari ghaayal, apne hi teer se

A moth and flame entwined,
In love's expansive sphere,
Lest rivers of crimson flow,
Through the night's deep tear.
Sometimes loss, sometimes gain, life's rhythmic sway,
Sometimes loss, sometimes gain, life's rhythmic sway,
This is life's true way,
This is life's true way.

Love's a gamble, a perilous game,
Only those who risk all, truly claim.
Love's a gamble, a perilous game,
Only those who risk all, truly claim.
Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
To embrace love's fire, learn how to die,
Sometimes loss, sometimes gain, life's rhythmic cry,
This is life's true way.

Love's decrees, forged in steel's embrace,
Destinies are etched in blood's red trace.
Love's decrees, forged in steel's embrace,
Destinies are etched in blood's red trace.
Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
Such is love's decree, sometimes loss, sometimes gain,
This is life's true way,
This is life's true way.

One side worldly ties, the other love's art,
Tell me, who will triumph, who will depart?
One side worldly ties, the other love's art,
Tell me, who will triumph, who will depart?
Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
Love's sovereign shall prevail,
Love's sovereign shall prevail,
Sometimes loss, sometimes gain, life's rhythmic trail,
This is life's true way.

None can fight against fate's design,
The hunter falls, by his own arrow's line.
None can fight against fate's design,
The hunter falls, by his own arrow's line.
Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
Don't mistake this for a mere song's tune,
This is life's deep and vibrant moon,
Sometimes loss, sometimes gain, life's rhythmic rune,
This is life's true way.

None can fight against fate's design,
The hunter falls, by his own arrow's line.
The hunter falls, by his own arrow's line.
The hunter falls, by his own arrow's line.
The hunter falls, by his own arrow's line.
The hunter falls, by his own arrow's line.
