sham dhali shama jali
jhum udi ye zindagi
yeh nasha fir kaha
ye mere meharba
sham dhali shama jali
jhum udi ye zindagi
yeh nasha fir kaha
ye mere meharba
sham dhali shama jali
jhum udi ye zindagi
yeh nasha fir kaha
ye mere meharba

raaho me badta hai jitna andhera
hota hai najdik utna sabera
raaho me badta hai jitna andhera
hota hai najdik utna sabera
dil na jala aa muskra ,
masti mai mehrbaan
sham dhali shama jali
jhum udi ye zindagi
yeh nasha fir kaha
ye mere meharba

dil ki kali ek din to khilegi
manzil kahi na kahi to milegi
dil ki kali ek din to khilegi
manzil kahi na kahi to milegi
aah na bhar sikwa na kar
o bekhabar meharban
sham dhali shama jali
jhum udi ye zindagi
yeh nasha fir kaha
ye mere meharba
sham dhali shama jali
jhum udi ye zindagi
yeh nasha fir kaha
ye mere meharba

As twilight descends, the lamps ignite, life awakens, dancing.
This intoxication, where does it linger, my beloved?

This intoxication, where does it linger, my beloved?
As twilight descends, the lamps ignite, life awakens, dancing.
This intoxication, where does it linger, my beloved?

The deeper the shadows grow on the path,
the nearer dawns the light.
The deeper the shadows grow on the path,
the nearer dawns the light.
Do not burn your heart, smile and revel, oh benevolent one.
As twilight descends, the lamps ignite, life awakens, dancing.
This intoxication, where does it linger, my beloved?

The dark bud of the heart shall bloom one day.
The destination shall bloom somewhere.
The dark bud of the heart shall bloom one day.
The destination shall bloom somewhere.
Do not sigh, do not lament, oh unaware beloved.
As twilight descends, the lamps ignite, life awakens, dancing.
This intoxication, where does it linger, my beloved?
As twilight descends, the lamps ignite, life awakens, dancing.
This intoxication, where does it linger, my beloved?
