Like the boat when surrounded by the storm
Struggle to find the shore for safety.
When the clouds are dark and thick,
the birds struggle to find the way back to their nest.
If the convoy is lost during the expedition, due to shifting sands, the footprints are lost.
Similarly People in trouble do not get the support from anyone except their own shadow.
It is possible that the downer will get the straw to hold on,
Yet the swimmer often struggles to reach the depths of the sea.
This is a translation of the poem
Nahi Milti….Ghazal
