Tere saamne aasmaan aur bhi hain
Isi roz-o-shab [...]

upon this blessed day.
At the Crossroads of Life did he stand…
…upon the very spot where North met South,
where East became West…
But there was confusion within this young heart
as to the direction he should travel.
Strong was the desire to follow the [...]
