Hoon main ek fakir
Jaoon, lage jahan mera teer
Jahan le chale meri taqdeer
Hoon main ek fakir
Dhoond raha hoon mera pir
Jaise Ranjha ko dhoonde Heer
Na koi naqsha na koi lakeer
Buss, hoon main ek fakir
A wanderer am I
Walking wayward paths
Going with the wind
Sometimes seeking wisdom
Sometimes on a whim
No notion of direction or outcome
A simple wanderer am I
And onward I tread
Great piece!

Maybe, because of my own departure, this poem makes me feel sad and somehow strikes a chord with me. I’ve always recognised that we spend much time searching for the unfathomable as it’s not always easy to just be. Perhaps I’m also of the opinion that what would drive us, make our lives meaningful if we weren’t wanderers and wonderers ? A beautiful and touching poem Kunal.😀
