sham suhani ho nadi ho pani ho
dil ki rani ho to phir beda par ho
chaudi peshani ho aankh mastani ho
chayi aasmani ho to phir beda par hai
sham suhani ho

bag bagiche ho bag bagiche ho biche galiche ho
naukar ho chakar ho aage ho piche ho
reshmi suit ho makhmali but ho
reshmi suit ho makhmali but ho
husn ka sahar ho pyar ki lut ho
hotel irani ho murga biryani ho
par daulat begani ho to fir beda par hai
sham suhani ho

aisi koi rat ho apni barat ho
dulhan ka sath ho pyar ki bat ho
heero ka taj ho kal nahi aaj ho
fansi pe sair karo pita ji ka raj ho
bagal me rani ho chahe wo kani ho
are jani pahchani ho to fir beda par hai
sham suhani ho

aisi takdir ho apni jagir ho
dono hatho me bal bacho ki lakir ho
mahal taiyar ho jisme pariwar ho
mere bacho ke bache ek hazar ho
bacho ki nani ho
uski padnani ho to phir beda par ho
sham suhani ho nadi ho pani ho
dil ki rani ho to phir beda par ho
chaudi peshani ho aankh mastani ho
chayi aasmani ho to phir beda par hai
sham suhani ho

A twilight soft, a river's flow,
If queen of heart, then safe you'll go.
A brow so wide, a gaze that sways,
If heaven's hue, then through the haze.
A twilight soft.

Gardens bloom, and carpets spread,
Servants wait, both front and led.
Silk attire, velvet shoes,
A city of beauty, love's sweet ruse.
Iranian cafe, biryani's grace,
Though wealth may flee, a borrowed space,
A twilight soft.

A night like this, a wedding bright,
The bride beside, love in the light.
A crown of gems, not tomorrow, now,
Hang from the gallows, father's vow.
A queen nearby, though sightless she,
If known to you, then safe you'll be,
A twilight soft.

Such destiny, a heart so bold,
In both hands, children's stories told.
A palace built, a family's keep,
My children's children, secrets deep.
Grandmother's hold,
Great-grandmother's tale, safe you’ll be told.
A twilight soft, a river's flow,
If queen of heart, then safe you'll go.
A brow so wide, a gaze that sways,
If heaven's hue, then through the haze.
A twilight soft.
