RoTi

paDosi ki bakri ne

phir ghar mein ghus kar

koi chiz kha li

biwi ne sar pe qayamat uTha li

munne ko

rone mein jaise maza aa raha hai

barabar wo roe chala ja raha hai

faqir ab bhi chaukhaT se chipka hua hai

wahi roz wali dua de raha hai

roTi ke jalne ki bu

aur amman ki chiKHon se

ghar bhar gaya hai

pinjre mein chakraate miTThu ki aawaz

'roTi do

bi-bi ji roTi do'

is shor mein kho gai hai

roTi tawe par bhasam ho gai hai
