get an electrician in. it sounds like you've already had a pretty near miss!!

Sounds like you were working live for a start, which is dangerous not least because your lights aren't working any more.
Firstly, turn the power off!
Check the fuse or breaker, then check that you haven't interrupted the loop (power goes between roses and comes off to go to switches).
