Sair Kar Duniya Ki Galib ...

Sunset at Kedar Kanta, Har-Ki-Doon Trek


Changla Pass, On the Way to the Pangong Lake, Ladakh


Sair kar duniya ki galib, yeh zindagani phir kahan

zingagani gar rahi tou , naujawani phir kaha.....

Rough translation of the Galib's Couplet

Lets explore this world while we can, Who knows how long we may live
And even if we are alive, how long are we going to remain young ...

I know it gets lost in translation.

Anyone else willing to try a hand at the translation?

Beautiful message! I try to live a life without regrets and that's why I don't believe in delaying gratification. Tomorrow is never a promise and so I try to travel a lot and live life to the fullest each and every day.

Here for you to post in hindi....

सैर कर दुनिया की गालिब, जिन्दगानी फिर कहाँ।
जिन्दगानी गर रही तो, नौजवानी फिर कहाँ।।

Emma and Ajeya, thanks.

Sigma, I am glad you liked it.

Crystal, I know I should try and do more of it. In spite of quoting those lines, I am travelling much less than I would really like to.

Tarun, thanks a ton for the Hindi version.

Velu, I am also a big fan of BRO.

I agree Qaminante.
