Sadaqat

wo ek sham qalam kho gaya tha jab mera
bahut talash kiya har taraf idhar ki udhar

magar qalam ka kahin par nishan na hath aaya
meri talash meri kashmakash se ghabra kar

meri wo chhoTi si beTi mere qarib aai
ki jis ne likhna abhi bas abhi hi sikha hai

mere hawale kiya apni ek pencil aur
kaha ki aap ise apne waste rakhiye

magar ajib sa jadu hai us ki pencil mein
siwae sach ke jo kuchh aur likh nahin pati

wo ek sham bahut chaha kuchh likhun lekin
wo ek sham ajab thi main kuchh na likh paya
