आग है और है धुआँ फिर भी खड़ा मेरा साथिया इस जहन्नम कीबद्दुआ में है खिल रहा मेरा साथिया मेरे ख़्वाब को आवाज़ दो  है सुन रहा कोई ख़ुदा? तेरे इश्क़ में जीता रहा मरता रहा मेरा साथिया वार का इज़हार है चीख़ है पुकार है इस जहन्नम में मोहब्बत की तलाश है क्या तेरे पास है? ओ मेरी जान ओ मेरी जान मोहब्बत की बारिश बरसादे तू एक यार की है गुज़ारिश मेरे दल में बंध कमरे में तनहा मैं रहता रहा मेरे ख़्वाबों में आकेआस जगाले तू ओ साथिया ओ मेरी जान ज़िंदा हूँ तेरे नूर में ज़िंदा हूँ तेरे नूर में (translation) in the wrath of fire and smoke my lover stands still in the curse of this hell my lover blooms still my dreams need vocalizing is there’s any god who’s listening still? in your love my lover lives still in your love my lover dies at will there’s declaration of war hear the screams feel the uproar one searches for love in this hell do you have it within? i can’t tell oh, my love oh, my love pour the showers of love in this hell a dear friend is what my heart yearns for in this enclosed room loneliness and i sleep in seize my dreams and light the desire within oh, love oh, my love i’m alive in your light i’m alive in your light

about

The war is upon us. Unrest, uproar and violence have consumed what was once a vibrant tapestry of life, leaving behind nothing but smoldering ruins. Homes, once filled with warmth, now succumb to flames. Bodies are fleeing; some make it, some don’t. The air is thick with the stench of blood, and the ominous sound of impending doom reverberates through the scarlet-painted alleys.

Peeking through a jailed window, a spirit confined in the darkness beseeches the divine—how is it? How is it that the noblest and the most heinous deeds in the world are committed in your name, in your faith? Why does fear propel people to unimaginable lengths, while love often withers in its shadow? Am I going to live still, or will I die in your love at will? Is there a sign? A divine light? If I see it, I’ll know; whether I’m meant to be here, or if I will go.

"Jaan" is a Hindi word meaning “life”, “loved one”, or “darling”, alluding, in the context of the song, to the higher power and its various forms.
