Where do I fit then?

It's just so beautiful to see birds on the green grass. Hearing them tweet and sing and watching them jump up and down...Little do we realize, that their place does not lie within our grounds..but by the skies, the clouds and the winds that carry their song..Yeap, that's where they fit...

Makes me wonder...If I hate this world, where do I fit then?

  2. Perhaps 'Allamah Iqbal has an answer for you :)

    "Sitaron Se Aage Jahaan Aur Bhi Hain
    Abhi Ishq Ke Imtihan Aur Bhi Hain."

    Beyond the stars are even more worlds
    There are still even more tests of passion

    "Tihi Zindagi Ke Nahin Yeh Fazaayein
    Yahan Sainkadon Kaaravaan Aur Bhi Hain"

    These expanses are not devoid of life
    Here there are hundreds of other caravans too

    "Qanaa'at Nah Kar Aalam-e-Rang-o-Bu Par
    Chaman Aur Bhi, Aashiyaan Aur Bhi Hain!"

    Don't be contented with the world of color and scent
    There are other gardens, other nests (resting places), too

    "Agar Kho Gaya Ek Nasheman Tho Kya Gham
    Muqaamaat-e-Aah-o-Fughaan Aur Bhi Hain!"

    If a nest (home) was lost, what's the [cause of] grief?
    There are other places for sighing and lamenting

    "Tu Shaaheen Hai, Parvaaz Hai Kaam Tera
    Tere Saamne Aasmaan Aur Bhi Hain"

    You are a falcon, your task is to fly
    Before you there are other skies as well to cover

    "Isi Roz-o-Shab Mein Ulajh Kar Nah Rah Jaa
    Kih Tere Zamaan-o-Makaan Aur Bhi Hain"

    Don't remain entangled, in this day-and-night
    For you have other times-and-places too

    "Gaye Din Ke Tanhaa Thaa Main Anjuman Mein
    Yahaan Ab Mere Raaz-Daan Aur Bhi Hain!"

    The days are gone when I was alone in the gathering
    Here, now, I have other secret-sharers too

    1. hmmm...Beautiful. Really Beautiful. As always. Allama Iqbal is one of my fav.

      I only wish this poem could answer me more precisely. Time and the human heart are such strange things. I hate this freaking world man. :'(

      Thankyou for the beautiful poem, Anon. Means a lot..

    2. The poem is very precise. The solutions are very simple. The question is: Are you looking hard enough? Are you seeking sincerely enough?

      Peace xx
