Kabe ka shauq hai na sanam-KHana chahiye

kabe ka shauq hai na sanam-KHana chahiye
jaanana chahiye dar-e-jaanana chahiye

saghar ki aarzu hai na paimana chahiye
bas ek nigah-e-murshid-e-mai-KHana chahiye

hazir hain mere jaib-o-gareban ki dhajjiyan
ab aur kya tujhe dil-e-diwana chahiye

aashiq na ho to husn ka ghar be-charagh hai
laila ko qais shama ko parwana chahiye

parwarda-e-karam se to zeba nahin hijab
mujh KHana-zad-e-husn se parda na chahiye

shikwa hai kufr ahl-e-mohabbat ke waste
har ek jafa-e-dost pe shukrana chahiye

baada-kashon ko dete hain saghar ye puchh kar
kis ko zakat-e-nargis-e-mastana chahiye

'bedam' namaz-e-ishq yahi hai KHuda-gawah
har dam tasawwur-e-ruKH-e-jaanana chahiye
