shabnam bhi dekhi shola bhi dekha
shabnam bhi dekhi shola bhi dekha
par tera jalwa bas bas bas haan
phulo ko dekha bulbul ko dekha
phulo ko dekha bulbul ko dekha
par tera jalwa bas bas bas haan

chalna bhi katil rukna bhi katil
uth ke najar ka jhukna bhi katil
kam nahi jalim teri ada bhi
tu hai kayamat tu hai bala bhi
itrana dekha sharmana dekha
par tera jalwa bas bas bas haan
shabnam bhi dekhi shola bhi dekha
par tera jalwa bas bas bas haan

aankho se chalke masti hi masti
hamne luta di apni hasti
parwane par hai shama diwani
dekho ji dekho ulti kahani
afsna dekha maykhana dekha
par tera jalwa bas bas bas haan
shabnam bhi dekhi shola bhi dekha
par tera jalwa bas bas bas haan

lahrake jab tu mahfil me aaye
jhume surahi paymana gaye
uf allah allah kafir nigahe
shan se mare jisko bhi chahe
parwana dekha diwana dekha
par tera jalwa bas bas bas haan
shabnam bhi dekhi shola bhi dekha
pucho na hamse kya kya dekha
par tera jalwa bas bas bas haan

I have seen the dew, I've seen the flame,
I have seen the dew, I've seen the flame,
But your radiance, oh, just, just, yes!

I've seen the blooms, I've seen the bird,
I've seen the blooms, I've seen the bird,
But your radiance, oh, just, just, yes!

To walk is to kill, to pause is to kill,
The glance that rises, the glance that will
Fall, your beauty, a fire that won't cease,
You are the end, you are the peace.
I've seen the pride, the blush I've known,
But your radiance, oh, just, just, yes!
I have seen the dew, I've seen the flame,
But your radiance, oh, just, just, yes!

From eyes that pour, a joyful dance,
I've lost myself in your expanse.
The moth is lost, the candle's near,
See, oh see, a world held dear!
I've seen the tale, the tavern's glow,
But your radiance, oh, just, just, yes!
I have seen the dew, I've seen the flame,
But your radiance, oh, just, just, yes!

When you appear, the hall aflame,
The decanter sways, the goblet claims,
Oh God, oh God, the eyes that burn,
With pride, they kill, and lessons learn.
I've seen the moth, the mad one's plight,
But your radiance, oh, just, just, yes!
I have seen the dew, I've seen the flame,
Ask not of all I've seen, the same,
But your radiance, oh, just, just, yes!
