mujhe talash thi jis ki wahi kabhi na mili
mujhe talāsh thī jis kī vahī kabhī na milī
har ek chiiz milī ek zindagī na milī
tirī talāsh meñ pairoñ meñ paḌ ga.e chhāle
magar ai manzil-e-maqsūd tū kabhī na milī
ḳhushī se dostī merī bhī thī magar ik din
ḳhafā huī vo kuchh aisī ke phir kabhī na milī
vo jis charāġh ke dam se makān raushan thā
usī charāġh ko ḳhud apnī raushnī na milī
tumhāre hijr meñ aisā bhī vaqt aaya hai
badan TaTol ke dekhā to nabz hī na milī
ye jism hai ke faqat shor gul hai sāñsoñ kā
ye aañkh hai ke koī ḳhvāb dekhtī na milī
dil-o-dimāġh pe haavī rahā ġham-e-daurāñ
ḳhushī ke saath bhī rah kar mujhe ḳhushī na milī
mujhe na mil sakā sūraj mire muqaddar kā
tirā nasīb tujhe merī 'chāñdnī' na milī
mujhe talash thi jis ki wahi kabhi na mili
har ek chiz mili ek zindagi na mili
teri talash mein pairon mein paD gae chhaale
magar ai manzil-e-maqsud tu kabhi na mili
KHushi se dosti meri bhi thi magar ek din
KHafa hui wo kuchh aisi ke phir kabhi na mili
wo jis charagh ke dam se makan raushan tha
usi charagh ko KHud apni raushni na mili
tumhaare hijr mein aisa bhi waqt aaya hai
badan TaTol ke dekha to nabz hi na mili
ye jism hai ke faqat shor gul hai sanson ka
ye aankh hai ke koi KHwab dekhti na mili
dil-o-dimagh pe hawi raha gham-e-dauran
KHushi ke sath bhi rah kar mujhe KHushi na mili
mujhe na mil saka suraj mere muqaddar ka
tera nasib tujhe meri 'chandni' na mili
