Too late!
I seem to always miss the train…
When something important is to be said.
When one has to fulfil a promise made.
When one has to call in for the help…
Or one has to summon an old friend….
It seems, I always miss the train…
When it comes to lending a hand,
reassuring enough to make the mend,
to pace-up on the roads solemn,
in order to meet an old friend…
It seems, I always miss the train…
Observing tides of the ocean,
keeping self indulged in a blend.
For locked one in heart, sharing a sentiment.
Or forgetting someone becoming indifferent.
It seems, I always miss the train…
To save someone from a death untimely,
a pain of affliction or grave regret.
Revealing, the truth was different,
confessing all up at the right moment.
It seems, I always miss the train…
Original:
Hamesha der kar deta hun main
zaruri bat kehni ho
koi wada nibhana ho
usay awaz deni ho
usay wapis bulana ho
hamesha der kar deta hun main
madad karni ho uski
yar ki dharas bandhani ho
bohat dereena raston par
kisi se milny jana ho
hamesha der kar deta hun main
badaltay mausamon ki ser main dil ko lagana ho
kisi ko yad rakhna ho
kisi ko bhool jana ho
hamesha der kar deta hun main
kisi ko maut say pehlay
kisi gham say bachana ho
haqiqat aur thi kuch
us ko ja kay ye batana ho
hamesha der kar deta hun main
A poem by Munir Niazi
