When clouds of pain loom in the sky
When a shadow of sadness flickers by
When a tear finds its way to the eye
When fear keeps loneliness alive
I try to console my heart
Why is it that you cry? I ask
This is only what life imparts
These deep silences within
have been handed out by time
Everyone's story has a little sorrow
Everyone's share has a little sunshine
No need for tears in your eyes
Every moment can be a new life
Why do you let them pass by?
Oh heart , Why is it that you cry?
- Javid Aktar
(translated from the film Zindagi na milega Dobhara)
