shabab hi shabab hai ye rat lajwab hai
husn hai hizab me ishk pe nakab hai

idhar udhar yaha waha hai mastiyo ke karwa
mastiyo ke karwa
umad rahi hai badaliya chamak rahi hai bijliya
chamak rahi hai bijliya
najar najar sawal hai najar najar jawab hai
shabab hi shabab hai ye rat lajwab hai
husn hai hizab me ishk pe nakab hai

kadam kadam pe hai nasha
kisi ko kuch nahi pata kisi ko kuch nahi pata
wo kon tha kidhar gaya
abhi abhi jo pas tha abhi abhi jo pas tha
ajeeb si ye nind hai ajeeb sa ye khwab hai
shabab hi shabab hai ye rat lajwab hai
husn hai hizab me ishk pe nakab hai

koi kisi pe mar mita koi kisi ka ho gaya
koi kisi ka ho gaya
hai ishk ki muwane jo pa gaya so kho gaya
jo pa gaya so kho gaya
hisab ki na puchiye ye bat behisab hai
shabab hi shabab hai ye rat lajwab hai
husn hai hizab me ishk pe nakab hai

Youth itself, this night, beyond compare,
Beauty veiled, love masked in the air.

Here and there, a caravan of bliss,
A caravan of bliss.
Clouds surge forth, and lightning's gleam,
And lightning's gleam.
Each gaze a question, each a reply,
Youth itself, this night, beyond compare,
Beauty veiled, love masked in the air.

Each step a haze,
None know the way, none know the way.
Who was that soul, which way did he roam?
Who was just near, who was just near?
A strange sleep, a dream so rare,
Youth itself, this night, beyond compare,
Beauty veiled, love masked in the air.

One surrenders, one does fall,
One does fall.
Love's ebb and flow, to gain is to lose all,
To gain is to lose all.
No reckoning, this truth's unbound,
Youth itself, this night, beyond compare,
Beauty veiled, love masked in the air.
