Lyrics

Tera kaam hai jalnaa parwaane, chaahe shama jale ya na jale
Shama jale ya na jale
Tu pankh jalaale deewaane, chaahe shama jale ya na jale
Shama jale ya na jale

Ye dard mohabbat ka sah jaa, tu aag ke dariya mein bah ja
Kahati jo duniya kahane de, tu jalate jalate ye kahaja
Yoon jal marte hain deewaane, chaahe shama jale ya na jale
Shama jale ya na jale

Tera pyaar nahi hai har jaayi, tu saudaai hai saudaai
Marne mein hai shaan mohabbat ki, jeene mein hai teri rusawaai,
Marte nahi jal kar parwaane, chaahe shama jale ya na jale
Shama jale ya na jale

Tera kaam hai jalna parwaane, chaahe shama jale ya na jale
Shama jale ya na jale – 2
