A New Year Wish

Rubab Abdullah Shukla
O dear friends!
Our lives blossom barely once
With night falling and day returning
The alteration of events happens
That you can't predict All of you be gifted to act
Enjoy it in the turmoil
Tolerate in the impropriety
Shield it in the stillness
Call it beauty in inexactness But ascertain it in righteousness
And love life the way it is
