    I guess this just confirms Dil toh pagal hai 🙂

    Emotionally – pagal hoga, hona bhi tha aur hona bhi chaahiye. Dil ka ye ek hausla aur kasoor bhi hey. Apni zindgi mai khud ka janma pahele kahi maheno pahele woh dhabakne lag padta hey. Antim swaas tak uska Siddhaant nahi chukta. Apne sharirr mai koi esa anng nahi hai ki jisne itna sehna aur katthinta ka samna karna padta hai. bahot bhrastachaar karne ke baad bhi woh apne liye ek nimak halal sevak ki taraa koi savaal aur fariyaad bina chup chap seva-bhavi raheta hai, tau woh paagal nahi tau kya hai?
     
    Do try to tanslate for others to be able to follow.

    hi,
    sucu hai dil to pagal  hai
    katta hai tarasta hai
    phir bhi dhakakta hai
    shareer ke  ansho ka bhaar lekar chalta hai
    jaane anjaano se laadta hai
    samajhata hai  suljhata hai
    aage badata jaata hai
    phir ruswa hokar beemaar pad jaata hai
    wafadar saathi hai jo aakri dum tak rukta nahi hai
    pur thuk kar bikhar kar thamne ke tamana karta hai
     
     
     
    best of luck and take care

    Thanks for sharing that verse on the subject of the human heart –
     
    The heart would be mad, would get mad and should be mad.
    Among those born naturally the heart beats several months before birth, and till the last breath it’s principles never sway.
    In our bodies, there is no other part that faces so many difficulty and hardship, and even after we corrupt ourselves it remains a humble servant that is service oriented asking no questions or requests for itself; So if it isn’t mad what is it?
     
    Is this translation fine?

    That translation is beautiful. I couldn’t have done better myself. Did you do it yourself? Wah, kamaal kar diya.
     
    I must say however that in Hindi lyrics the use of the word ‘paagal’ is to mean foolish, naive, silly, irrational similar to ‘Diwaana pun’
     
    But the use of the exact translation mad is not bad, not bad at all.
