Maqsad

Zehen ki degh mein,
pakta hua woh har roz ek naya maqsad,
aksar shaam tak pak kar bhi kachcha reh jaata hai...


Nuskhe toh har baar hi naye apnaye,
par natija,
har baar wohi,
jaana pehchana...


Aaj laga ki chulhe mein koela kam tha,
aur intezaam ke baad intezaar kiya shaam ka.
Aaj shaam kaano mein, degh khurachne ki awaaz aayee...


Chalo, kal phir, subha hogi, ek naya nuskha hoga,
aur pet bharne ki nayee ummeed...
