Main apne aap se, jab bhi kalaam karta hoon, Kai sawaalon ka, ehtimaam karta hoon. Whenever I converse with myself, I arrange for many questions. Zindagi ik adhoora, sa khwaab hai shaayad, Har koi ta’beer ki, kitaab hai shaayad. Life is perhaps an incomplete dream, Everyone is perhaps a book of interpretation. Waqt ki gard … Read more
