So very true! Some poetry (I particularly feel this way about Ghalib) is evergreen. Take a simple sher like this for instance -
Har ek baat pe kehte ho tum, ke tu kya hai?
Tumhi kaho, ke ye andaaz-e-guftugu kya hai?
When is this ever going to be wanting in relevance? ^
Ahhhh! Ghalib is evergreen. I think there’s something for practically every situation.
I am not even exaggerating for a moment here but that sher just made me feel something indescribable.
My favorite sher to justify my unreasonable disposition at times.. or even otherwise:
ham ko ma.alūm hai jannat kī haqīqat lekin
dil ke ḳhush rakhne ko 'ġhālib' ye ḳhayāl achchhā hai
