Translation of the song Aaye Hain Samjhane Log artist Jagjit Singh

aaye haiN samjhaane log

People have come to make me understand,

haiN kitne deewane log

How crazy these people are.

dair-o-haram meiN chain jo miltha

The peace that is found in the forbidden,

kyoN jaathe maikhaane log

Why do people need to dumb it down?

jaan ke sab kuch, kuch bhi na jaane

With all knowledge, they're still ignorant,

haiN kitne anjaane log

How unknowing these people are.

waqt pe kaam nahiN aathe haiN

They are never helpful when the time comes,

ye jaane pehchaane log

These familiar-recognisable people.

ab jab mujh ko hosh nahiN haiN

Now that I'm no longer conscious,

aaye haiN samjhaane log

These people have come to make me understand.
