Analysis of Life Brought Me So I Came
Mohammad Ibrahim Zauq 1789 (Delhi) – 1854
The life brought me so I came; the death takes me away so I go
Neither I came on my own nor I go with my will
There may be a few gamblers as bad as I am
Whatever move I made it proved to be very bad
It's better that one should not get hooked to the charms of the world
However, what one can do when nothing can be accomplished without getting involved
Who's come to the rescue of someone who's about to leave this world!
You too keep moving till you can move on
O Zauq! I'm leaving this garden with a pinning for fresh air
Why should I care now whether zephyr blows or not!
