I fancy that my state of un-aware-ness, and dissociation from reality, may be so overpowering that it may even disconnect me from the existence of my being, from the reality of each and every breath of life.
In some ways, this awareness of being, of being alive, and being able to draw a breath, is an uninspiring, a tedious, and in some ways, a depressing enterprise. The poet wishes for an overpowering and obsessive sentiment of un-awareness, that may dissociate him from the dreary realities of existence.
This is not an easy state to be in, or to achieve, for the most difficult awareness to let go is the awareness of the act of breathing. The only state of mind in the entire human experience when such a thing is possible – either one is drunk enough to be out of senses, and yet be in senses. Or it is the state of 'samadhi' (meditative inertness).
bekhabari = un-aware-ness, un-guarded-ness, carelessness, in-attention; also, a dissociation from reality

tootaa huaa dil shamma-e-butkhaanaa banaa denaa
jab raat dhaley saqi paimaanaa banaa denaa
My heart, that is now a damaged vessel, is of little use for me anymore. Make a lamp from it, and may it be used for illuminating a temple. And when the night is done with, make a drinking cup from it to partake wine.

purshor ghataa'on ka mamnoon na honay do

You know the craft of making someone obsessed. The why-fore should the noisy clouds of rain get the accolades and gratitude.
The peacocks are ecstatic when they see the clouds; the cloud and rain also stir a lover's heart. But o my beloved, when you have the ability to make a heart obsessed with your thoughts, then why should the clouds get the credit for, or get known for this.

khud kissa-e-gham apnaa kotaah kiyaa mein ne
duniya ne bahut chaahaa afsaanaa banaa denaa
The people of this world tried hard to make a legend of my life's story; but my own design I shared very little of my tale of personal sorrows.
Another implication – the poet is cautioning not to be too liberal in sharing your tale of woes with all and sundry. The people will take no time to make a story of it, which is not a good thing always. Better that you share little and share prudently.

'seemaab' yehi jaane garmi-e-mohabbat hai
insaan ko hum-anjaam-e-parwaanaah banaa denaa
Know that the truth of life is in the warmth of love and affection; may it be so that every human being is smitten by the same obsession (of love and devotion) that guides the moth (parwaanaah) to the flame, the world would be so much better for that.
The poet is emphatic that the understanding of the truth of life is in understanding the emotion of love. It is this devotion that drives the moth (parwaanaa) to the flame. If such devotion and love becomes the guiding force in the life of all humans, this world would be a much better place to live.
