subh se sham tak
lakDiyan chirna
us ka barson ka mamul hai
us ka jism
lakDi ke burade mein
dafn hone laga hai
use roTi bhi
burade ki bani hui lagti hai
us ke hath biwi ko
sukhe daraKHt ki tarah mahsus karte hain
lakDiyon ke darmiyan rahte rahte
wo
KHud ko bhi
lakDi ka aadmi samajhne laga hai
waqt guzarne ke sath sath
us ka ye KHayal mazbut hota jata hai
aur ek din
aara machine bhi
is se muttafiq ho jati hai
Nazm
Aara machine ka karigar
mustafa arbab
