mehfil me sayano ki ek diwana aa gaya
mehfil me sayano ki ek diwana aa gaya phir na kahna
diwana sayano ko diwana bana gaya
khub gaya tir nazar pe yu nasha chha gaya
ye ishara samjh lo bas maza aa gaya
mehfil me sayano ki ek diwana aa gaya
mehfil me sayano ki ek diwana aa gaya phir na kahna
diwana sayano ko diwana bana gaya

diwane kya naam hai, naam mera gulpham hai
sach par teri hai kon tumko fikar padi hai kon
dil tumpe kurban hai rahne de anjan hai
aise dil na tod mera daman chhod
aise dil na tod o mera daman chhod phir na kahna
nind nahi aati mujhko zalim chain uda gaya
mehfil me sayano ki ek diwana aa gaya

tera dil khoya kaha upar bai taraf waha
aur nishani hai koi chij purani hai koi
kya koi tasvir hai ha uspe kuch tahrir hai
lata hu mai dhund ke o jana humse puchh phir na kahna ke
mai anjana rahi raste me dhokha kha gaya
mehfil me sayano ki ek diwana aa gaya

pyari tujhko jaan hai banda to mehman hai
pyari tujhko jaan hai arey banda to mehman hai
aake mujhse bat kar tu mujhpe na ghat kar
mai tumse kuch kam nahi in bato me dam nahi
nach ke ga ke dekh le samne aake dekh le
o nach ke ga ke dekh le samne aake dekh le phir na kahna
shabnam jaisa rup ye bijli se takra gaya
mehfil me sayano ki ek diwana aa gaya
mehfil me sayano ki ek diwana aa gaya phir na kahna
diwana sayano ko diwana bana gaya

Into the gathering of wise ones, a madman did arrive,
Into the gathering of wise ones, a madman did arrive, then say not a word.
The madman turned the wise to mad,
A dart of gaze, a sweet intoxication did descend,
This hint, understand it, the pleasure has begun.
Into the gathering of wise ones, a madman did arrive.
Into the gathering of wise ones, a madman did arrive, then say not a word.
The madman turned the wise to mad.

What is a madman's name, my name is Goolfaam,
Upon your truth, who cares for you, who cares?
My heart, it is sacrificed to you, let it remain unknown,
Do not break my heart like this, leave my embrace,
Do not break my heart like this, leave my embrace, then say not a word.
Sleep deserts me, cruel one, peace is stolen away,
Into the gathering of wise ones, a madman did arrive.

Where did you lose your heart, to the left, above, there,
And is there some other sign, some old thing,
Is there a picture, or some inscription,
I shall find it and bring it, oh beloved, ask me not, then say not a word,
I am but a stranger, the road has betrayed me.
Into the gathering of wise ones, a madman did arrive.

You hold dear your life, a servant is a guest,
You hold dear your life, hey, a servant is a guest,
Come and speak with me, do not plot against me,
I am not less than you, in these words there is no strength,
Dance and sing, and see, come before me and see,
Oh, dance and sing, and see, come before me and see, then say not a word.
Like dew, this form, it clashed with lightning,
Into the gathering of wise ones, a madman did arrive.
Into the gathering of wise ones, a madman did arrive, then say not a word.
The madman turned the wise to mad.
