Sher on Zindagi
Life is simply indefinable;
it presents itself in many more ways than human beings can comprehend. Similarly, the representations of life in poetry are as varied as are our perceptions with regard to life. This small selection of verses on life is only a few of those approaches to human existence which distinguish life for all its splendor and beauty.
jo guzārī na jā sakī ham se
ham ne vo zindagī guzārī hai
jo guzari na ja saki hum se
hum ne wo zindagi guzari hai
