teri talash mein khudko aur tanha paya

teri talash mein khudko aur tanha paya
aye dil-e-barbaad bata unse kya paya

thi na manzil meri tu phir bhi ae dil
tu kya jaane dil ne inteezar se kya paya

hai yeh mohobaat kis ajab marz ka naam
bata aye dil tune dil laga kar kya paya

nahin thi dushmaani is zamaane se kabhi
aaj zamaane ko rusva kar tune kya paya

hoon tanha aaj bheed mein tere bigair
bata tune bhi mujhe sata ke kya paya

kyon chupata hai tu dard apna mujhse
yeh dard ankhoon mein kab chup paya

main teri umeed mein hoon aaj bhi zinda
til-til mar kar bhi tere bin na mar paya

dekh kya haalat hui meri yahan Kapil
ki dasht mein koi saher na mil paya

tarasta tha roz main us aftaab ke liye
aaj dhalta hua sa woh dur nazaar aaya

teri talash mein khudko aur tanha paya
aye dil-e-barbaad bata unse kya paya
