Log miltay aur bichhadtay rahay

Log miltay aur bichhadtay rahay
Umar bhar ye silsilaa chalta rahaa

Kabhi Sabro-shukar ka aalam rahaa
Aur kabhi shikvaa gilaa chalta rahaa 

Jism ka har ang saath chhod gaya
Saanson ka par kaarvaan chalta rahaa 

Mil sake na kabhi kinaare dariyaa ke
Darmiyaan ka faaslaa chalta rahaa 

Kaun ruktaa hai kisi kay vaastay
Main gira to kaafilaa chalta rahaa 

Manzil vo paa letaa hai 'Rajan' ki jo 
Rakh ke dil me hauslaa chalta rahaa 

                          'Rajan Sachdeva'

These lines came to my mind after seeing Shri Ramesh Nayyar ji (Gaurav Nayyar's grand father) in the hospice on December 16,2015. I had known him and his family and often visited them when they lived in Pathankot Punjab and I was in Jammu.

    1. Dr. Sudha Saraswat ji,
      Thank you so much for your kind comments and encouragement but I must say that the 'Beauty is in the eyes of beholder'. Because You want to see beauty so you see beauty in it. You found sincerity and devotion in it because that's what you are....... full of sincerity and devotion. For years, since I started coming to Nashville, I have seen and admired your unshakable faith and devotion. May Almighty bless you and all of us with continuous and even stronger faith and devotion.
