roen na abhi ahl-e-nazar haal pe mere hona hai abhi mujh ko kharab aur ziyaada

muddaten ho gain 'faraaz' magar wo jo diwangi ki thi hai abhi

kabhi khirad kabhi diwangi ne lut liya tarah tarah se hamein zindagi ne lut liya

hum tere shauq mein yun khud ko ganwa baithe hain jaise bachche kisi tyauhaar mein gum ho jaen

main aa gaya hun wahan tak teri tamanna mein jahan se koi bhi imkan-e-wapsi na rahe

kabhu rona kabhu hansna kabhu hairan ho jaana mohabbat kya bhale-change ko diwana banati hai laughing, crying and at times spouting inanity passion does render a wise person to insanity

ek diwane ko jo aae hain samjhane kai pahle main diwana tha aur ab hain diwane kai in a madman, people come, to sanity imbue i was the only lunatic, now there're quite a few

junun ab manzilen tai kar raha hai khirad rasta dikha kar rah gai hai

tumhaari zat se mansub hai diwangi meri tumhin se ab meri diwangi dekhi nahin jati

nai mushkil koi darpesh har mushkil se aage hai safar diwangi ka ishq ki manzil se aage hai

khuli na mujh pe bhi diwangi meri barson mere junun ki shohrat tere bayan se hui

ain danai hai 'nasikh' ishq mein diwangi aap saudai hain jo kahte hain saudai mujhe

dil ke muamle mein mujhe dakhl kuchh nahin is ke mizaj mein jidhar aae udhar rahe

farq nahin padta hum diwanon ke ghar mein hone se virani umdi padti hai ghar ke kone kone se translation being at home of crazies like us, hardly matters, desolation creeps from its all nooks and corners. sagar akbarabadi

kar gai diwangi hum ko bari har jurm se chaak-damani se apni pak-damani hui
