Waqt is a short poem about Time, and how it moves quietly but swiftly, slipping away before we even realize it. This poem reflects on how we often delay living in the moment, believing there’s always a “Tomorrow”.
But as time passes, we’re reminded that the future we count on may never come. It’s a heartfelt message to cherish the present, stop procrastinating, and make the most of life today.
This relatable reflection speaks to anyone who has experienced regret over lost time or unfulfilled plans, encouraging them to value every moment.
वक्त का खेल
वक्त का खेल
वक्त टिक-टिक कर,
निकलता चला गया |
हमारे सामने हमारे हाथ से,
सब कुछ फिसलता चला गया |
इस गुमान में थे कि वक्त है अभी |
कल कदम बढ़ाएंगे,
अभी जी ले ज़िंदगी |
वक्त का खेल देखो,
दो पल भी ना रहा |
जिस कल के भरोसे बैठा था तू ,
वो कल ही ना रहा |
