shama khubsurat hai tumhari jarurat hai
bhaaro se puchu mai bhaaro se puchu main
ae mahbubi jaane khubi sabkuch hai
tu kaha tu kaha tu kaha
shamman khubsurat hai tumhari jarurat hai

aaj to mujhko hosh nahi hai
julf bhi kahi aanchal bhi kahi hai
main bhi hasin hu dil bhi hasin hai
ye duniya khwabo ki jammen hai
ae mahbubi jaane khubi sabkuch hai
tu kaha tu kaha tu kaha
shamman khubsurat hai tumhari jarurat hai

mausam ka paigam hai aaja
jra jrra cham hai aaja
rangin rangin shaam hai aaja
tujhsay zra sa kaam hai aaja
ae mahbubi jaane khubi sabkuch hai
tu kaha tu kaha tu kaha
shama khubsurat hai tumhari jarurat hai

shama khubsurat hai tumhari jarurat hai
bhaaro se puchu mai bhaaro se puchu main
ae mahbubi jaane khubi sabkuch hai
tu kaha tu kaha tu kaha
shamman khubsurat hai tumhari jarurat hai

The candle, a beauty, and you, my need,
I ask the springtime, let the breezes plead.
Oh, Beloved, essence, the ultimate creed,
Where are you? Where? Where indeed?
The candle, a beauty, and you, my need.

Today, my senses, they cannot hold,
Your tresses, your veil, a story told.
I am lovely, my heart, a sight to behold,
This world, a dream, in silver and gold.
Oh, Beloved, essence, the ultimate creed,
Where are you? Where? Where indeed?
The candle, a beauty, and you, my need.

The season's message, come, embrace me now,
Each atom yearns, I know not how.
The evening paints itself, a vibrant vow,
A simple task, my love, I ask somehow.
Oh, Beloved, essence, the ultimate creed,
Where are you? Where? Where indeed?
The candle, a beauty, and you, my need.

The candle, a beauty, and you, my need,
I ask the springtime, let the breezes plead.
Oh, Beloved, essence, the ultimate creed,
Where are you? Where? Where indeed?
The candle, a beauty, and you, my need.
