pas-e-adab mujhe unhen sharm-o-haya na ho
pās-e-adab mujhe unheñ sharm-o-hayā na ho
nazzāra-gāh meñ asar-e-mā-sivā na ho
maanā mirī qubūl nahīñ hai duā na ho
itnā hī ho ki us pe asar ġhair kā na ho
kyuuñ kar kahūñ ki paas unheñ ġhair kā na ho
jo ġhusse meñ bhī kahte haiñ terā burā na ho
us parde meñ to kitne garebān chaak haiñ
vo be-hijāb hoñ to ḳhudā jaane kyā na ho
takiye meñ kyā rakhā hai ḳhat-e-ġhair kī tarah
dekhūñ to maiñ navishta-e-qismat mirā na ho
mil kar gale vo karte haiñ ḳhanjar kī tarah kaaT
is par bhī kah rahā huuñ ki mujh se judā na ho
muusā kā haal dekh ke dil kāñpne lagā
ab to duā hai un se mirā sāmnā na ho
vo baar baar merā lipaTnā shab-e-visāl
un kā jhijak ke kahnā koī dekhtā na ho
'bedam' kī zindagī hai isī chheḌ-chhāḌ meñ
tark-e-vafā kī tarh se tark-e-jafā na ho
pas-e-adab mujhe unhen sharm-o-haya na ho
nazzara-gah mein asar-e-ma-siwa na ho
mana meri qubul nahin hai dua na ho
itna hi ho ki us pe asar ghair ka na ho
kyun kar kahun ki pas unhen ghair ka na ho
jo ghusse mein bhi kahte hain tera bura na ho
us parde mein to kitne gareban chaak hain
wo be-hijab hon to KHuda jaane kya na ho
takiye mein kya rakha hai KHat-e-ghair ki tarah
dekhun to main nawishta-e-qismat mera na ho
mil kar gale wo karte hain KHanjar ki tarah kaT
is par bhi kah raha hun ki mujh se juda na ho
musa ka haal dekh ke dil kanpne laga
ab to dua hai un se mera samna na ho
wo bar bar mera lipaTna shab-e-visal
un ka jhijak ke kahna koi dekhta na ho
'bedam' ki zindagi hai isi chheD-chhaD mein
tark-e-wafa ki tarh se tark-e-jafa na ho
