तिश्नगी न मनाते तो और क्या करते
जश्न-ऐ-शोला न मनाते तो और क्या करते
अँधेरा आया था मांगने रौशनी से भीख
हम अपना घर न जलाते तो और क्या करते

Tishnagi na manate tho aur kya karte
jashn-e-shola na manate tho aur kya karte
andhera aya tha mange roshni se bheek
ham apna ghar na jalate tho aur kya karte

Whate else would I have done except celebrating the thirst
What esle would I have done except celebrating the festive of fire
The darkness came begging for the light...
What else would I have done except setting my own house on fire
