mai pagal mera manava pagal
pagal meri prit re
pagale-pan ki pid vo jaane
bichhade jiska mit re
mai pagal mera manavaa paagal

kahe ye duniya mai divaanaa
din me dekhun sapne
divaani duniya kya jaane
divaani duniya kya jaane
ye sapane hai apane
ye sapane hai apane
ghaayal man ki hasi udaaye
ye duniya ki rit re, mai paagal

chhupi hui meri kaya me
raakh kisi paravaane ki
ye meraa dukhiyaa jivan hai
ruh kisi divaane ki
man ke tute taar bajaakar
gaaun apane git re

mai pagal meraa manava pagal
pagal meri prit re, mai paagal

My madness blooms, my heart’s adrift,
Madness in love’s embrace.
The ache of folly, only known
By souls in loss of grace.
My madness blooms, my heart’s adrift.

The world proclaims me mad, a fool,
Dreaming in the day's bright gleam.
This world, unseeing, cannot know,
Cannot fathom my own dream.
My own dream, a world unto itself.
My wounded spirit finds no ease,
Such is the world's cruel scheme, my madness.

Hidden deep within my frame,
Lie ashes of a moth so brave.
This life, a sorrow-laden song,
The soul of one the world won’t save.
I pluck the strings of a broken mind,
And sing my lonely theme.

My madness blooms, my heart’s adrift,
Madness in love’s embrace, my madness.
