talaash

quest, search

1 / 9: talaash

talaash-e-talab mein woh lazzat mili hai

dua kar raha hoon ke manzil na aaye

raah-e-aashiqi ka taqaaza yehi hai ke

kashti chale par saahil na aaye

i found so much joy in the seeking of my desire

i am praying the destination never arrives

the demand of the path of love is just this:

boat keeps sailing, but shore is never reached
