chand tanha hain asmaan tanha
dil main hain kahan kahan tanha
bujh gaye as chup gaya tara
thartharata rahan dhuan tanha
zindagi kya is ko kehta hain
jism tanha hain aur jaan tanha
humsafar koi ghar milay bhi kaheen
dono chalte rahen tanha tanha
jalti bujhti roshniyoon kay par
simta simta sa ek makaan tanha
rah dekha karega sadiyoon tak
chor jayenge yeh jahan tanha
