I am drawn to the land of madness, my soul desires it

Junun vodisigʻa moyil koʻrarman joni zorimni (translation to english by Adiblar)

I am drawn to the land of madness, my soul desires it

I search for a way to break free from this chaotic world

Though I may have fallen victim to the cruelty of the heavens,

I will continue to search for the path that leads to freedom.

Oh fate, why do you test me so relentlessly, denying me my desires?

But even if you send me to the gallows, I will still pursue my dreams.

Tears have dried on the cheeks of the rose, leaving the saffron in its place

The sky may have brought cruel winds, but I will find my own spring.

I swear by my heart, I will work tirelessly to achieve my goals

Whether day or night, I will strive to reach my dreams.

Let all who witness my misery look upon me with pity,

For I am but a mere slave to the desires of my heart.

Oh cupbearer, pour me a drink from the bitter cup of life

For even if it poisons me, I will still drink it to the dregs.

The world may hold me captive, but I will not be defeated

Oh Navoi, help me find my way to freedom, where no obstacles remain.
