nazo se pali gulfam husn ka agaz ishk ka anzam
aa rahi hai aapki khatir banaras ki subah lucknow ki sham
chadti jawani ubharata sabab karega jamane ki niyat kharab
kayamat uthegi giregi bijliya uthega jo chehre se ishqe nakab

hum salam karte hai
mahfil me aane walo hum salam karte hai
mahfil me aane walo hum salam karte hai
ye jindagi ye dil tumhare nam karte hai
mahfil me aane walo hum salam karte hai

tumne hamare pyar ko manjur kar liya
tumne hamare pyar ko manjur kar liya
ek jarra aye nawaze ka aye janab sukriya
aye janab sukriya khidmat me
khidmat me pesh najro ke jam karte hai
khidmat me pesh najro ke jam karte hai
ye jindagi ye dil tumhare nam karte hai
mahfil me aane walo hum salam karte hai

chahe me ab jamane ki farman kijiye
chahe me ab jamane ki farman kijiye
hum jan bhi luta denge mauka to dijiye
mauka to dijiye logo ko kya
logo ko kya hai log to badnam karte hai
logo ko kya hai log to badnam karte hai
ye jindagi ye dil tumhare nam karte hai
mahfil me aane walo hum salam karte hai

shama se jo takraye jal ke khak ho gaye
shama se jo takraye jal ke khak ho gaye
khak ho gaye koi kisi ke darde dil ko manta nahi
hum jal rahe hai aag me koi janta nahi
parwane teri mat ka parmana laye hai
shama hamara nam hai pahchanta nahis
shama se jo takraye jal ke khak ho gaye
namo nishan bhi na raha yu rakh ho gaya

parwano ka hum aise katle aam karte hai
parwano ka hum aise katle aam karte hai
ye jindagi ye dil tumhare nam karte hai
mahfil me aane walo hum salam karte hai
mahfil me aane walo hum salam karte hai
hum salam karte hai hum salam karte hai

From eyes, a garden of roses, beauty's dawn, love's final decree,
For you, Varanasi's morning breathes, Lucknow's evening sets free.
Rising youth, blossoming grace, we'll shatter time's cold decree,
Judgment day will rise, lightning strikes, as love's veil you decree.

We offer our salutations,
To those who grace this gathering, we offer salutations.
To those who grace this gathering, we offer salutations.
This life, this heart, we dedicate to you, creating new stations.
To those who grace this gathering, we offer salutations.

You've embraced our love, finding it true,
You've embraced our love, finding it true,
A humble drop, favored by you, oh noble you,
Oh, noble you, in service,
In service, we present, offering eyes and the soul of the brew,
In service, we present, offering eyes and the soul of the brew,
This life, this heart, we dedicate to you, our truth.
To those who grace this gathering, we offer salutations.

In love's embrace, now issue your command, be true,
In love's embrace, now issue your command, be true,
We'll sacrifice our souls, just grant us a chance, as our hearts renew,
Grant us a chance, what of the world,
The world will only defame you, it is true.
The world will only defame you, it is true.
This life, this heart, we dedicate to you, our view.
To those who grace this gathering, we offer salutations.

One who strikes the candle, burns to dust, their light through,
One who strikes the candle, burns to dust, their light through,
Burns to dust, no one acknowledges another's heart's sorrow, a truth,
We burn in fire, unseen, unknown, with nothing to imbue,
The moth, you've brought the decree of death, a ghastly truth,
The candle is ours, it does not recognize, our hue,
One who strikes the candle, burns to dust, their light through,
No name, no trace remains, reduced to ash, a loss of youth.

Such is the massacre of moths, what we do.
Such is the massacre of moths, what we do.
This life, this heart, we dedicate to you.
To those who grace this gathering, we offer salutations.
To those who grace this gathering, we offer salutations.
We offer salutations, we offer salutations.
