hazar koshish-e-paiham ke bawajud hamein
hazār koshish-e-paiham ke bāvajūd hameñ
tamām umr koī dost bā-vafā na milā
kahāñ kā vasl mulāqāt hī ġhanīmat hai
phir us ke ba.ad vo ham se milā milā na milā
vo jis ko ham ne zamāne se baḌh ke chāhā thā
us ek shaḳhs kī chāhat meñ kuchh mazā na milā
tirī judā.ī ke sahrā meñ kho ga.e aise
surāġh apnā kahīñ aur kahīñ patā na milā
ye kā.enāt ki be-rañg hotī jaatī hai
jo dil kā rañg dikhātī vo aa.ina na milā
talāshte rahe kāñToñ meñ phuul se paikar
mizāj ham ko azal se hī āshiqāna milā
tamām umr hī rastoñ kī ḳhaak chhānī hai
hameñ to manzil-e-hastī tirā patā na milā
hameñ jo raah dikhātā qadam qadam pe 'nabīl'
misāl-e-ḳhizr koī aisā rahnumā na milā
ḳhud aap apne muqābil meñ aa ga.e haiñ 'nabīl'
hameñ mizāj milā bhī to bāġhiyāna milā
hazar koshish-e-paiham ke bawajud hamein
tamam umr koi dost ba-wafa na mila
kahan ka wasl mulaqat hi ghanimat hai
phir us ke baad wo hum se mila mila na mila
wo jis ko hum ne zamane se baDh ke chaha tha
us ek shaKHs ki chahat mein kuchh maza na mila
teri judai ke sahra mein kho gae aise
suragh apna kahin aur kahin pata na mila
ye kaenat ki be-rang hoti jati hai
jo dil ka rang dikhati wo aaina na mila
talashte rahe kanTon mein phul se paikar
mizaj hum ko azal se hi aashiqana mila
tamam umr hi raston ki KHak chhani hai
hamein to manzil-e-hasti tera pata na mila
hamein jo rah dikhata qadam qadam pe 'nabil'
misal-e-KHizr koi aisa rahnuma na mila
KHud aap apne muqabil mein aa gae hain 'nabil'
hamein mizaj mila bhi to baghiyana mila
