Who has found 4 perfect days? किसको मिले हैं ? Kis ko milay hain?

मर्ज़ी किसी से वक़्त ने पूछी कहाँ कभी
किसको मिले हैं अपनी तबीयत के चार दिन ?

Marzi kisi say vaqt nay poochhi kahaan kabhi
Kis ko milay hain apni tabeeyat kay char din ?

                                ~~ ~~ ~~

Time never asks anyone what they want - what is their heart's desire.
Is there anyone who has enjoyed four perfect days of his choice?

Note:
In Indian culture, 'Four days' is a symbol of the total lifespan of humans.
1. Bachpan = Childhood
2. Jawaani = Youth
3. Adhaid = Mature, Middle age
4. Vridh or Budhaapa = Old age

All Hindi, Punjabi, and Urdu poets of India and Pakistan use this metaphoric expression of four days to represent a whole life.
