mujhko jahan mein koi dil-ara nahin mila
mujh ko jahāñ meñ koī dil-ārā nahīñ milā
maiñ ḳhud bhī apne ġham kā shanāsā nahīñ milā
apnī talab ke apnī ġharaz ke mile haiñ log
merī talab ko dekhne vaalā nahīñ milā
phirtā rahā huuñ kū-e-vafā meñ tamām umr
lekin kahīñ bhī koī shanāsā nahīñ milā
mere uyuub par rahī har shaḳhs kī nigāh
koī hunar ko dekhne vaalā nahīñ milā
ḳhanjar-ba-kaf to log mile har jagah magar
marham-ba-dast koī masīhā nahīñ milā
ye bhī huā ki maiñ ne jo sochā nahīñ huā
ye bhī huā ki dil ne jo chāhā nahīñ milā
milne ga.e the raat ko 'shaukat' se ham magar
thā vo hujūm-e-fikr meñ tanhā nahīñ milā
mujh ko jahan mein koi dil-ara nahin mila
main KHud bhi apne gham ka shanasa nahin mila
apni talab ke apni gharaz ke mile hain log
meri talab ko dekhne wala nahin mila
phirta raha hun ku-e-wafa mein tamam umr
lekin kahin bhi koi shanasa nahin mila
mere uyub par rahi har shaKHs ki nigah
koi hunar ko dekhne wala nahin mila
KHanjar-ba-kaf to log mile har jagah magar
marham-ba-dast koi masiha nahin mila
ye bhi hua ki main ne jo socha nahin hua
ye bhi hua ki dil ne jo chaha nahin mila
milne gae the raat ko 'shaukat' se hum magar
tha wo hujum-e-fikr mein tanha nahin mila
