mana ke tum haseen ho ahle shabaab ho
mana ke tum haseen ho ahle shabaab ho
iska to kuch jawab do kyu lazwab ho
iska to kuch jawab do kyu lazwab ho

tum mere warke zindagi ke pahle haraf hai
tum mere warke zindagi ke pahle haraf hai
kismat likhi hai jisme tumhi wo kitab ko
kismat likhi hai jisme tumhi wo kitab ko

parwah nahi jamana kahe tumko sangdil
parwah nahi jamana kahe tumko sangdil
meri najar me jane jaha aaftab ho
meri najar me jane jaha aaftab ho

banke gazal ke sher tum aao khyal me haye
banke gazal ke sher tum aao khyal me haye
mai hu khyam aur meri tum sharaab ho
mai hu khyam aur meri tum sharaab ho
mana ke tum haseen ho ahle shabaab ho

Though beauty blooms in you, a youthful fire,
Though beauty blooms in you, a youthful fire,
Answer this plea, oh why do you conspire
To silence all, a mystery entire?

You are the first, a word upon my page,
You are the first, a word upon my page,
My life's scroll starts with you, in every age,
The destiny in which my heart will engage.

Let the world call you heartless, cold as stone,
Let the world call you heartless, cold as stone,
But in my eyes, the sun you’ve always shown,
A world of light, eternally my own.

As verses rise, you enter in my thought, alas,
As verses rise, you enter in my thought, alas,
I am the tent, you the flowing, heady glass,
I am the tent, you the flowing, heady glass,
Though beauty blooms in you, a youthful pass.
