Detailed Meaning

In classical poetry, 'likhega' is the simple future or subjunctive-derived form of the verb 'likhna' (to write).

Instead, his writing expanded into an exhaustive ledger of passion.

Etymology

From Sauraseni Prakrit, descending from Sanskrit 'likhati' (लिखति), from the root 'likh' (to scratch, carve, write).

Usage

Commonly used in classical ghazals to evoke themes of letter-writing (nāma-nigārī) to the beloved or the recording of destiny by the divine pen.

Examples
