Efforts -- not Results Matter

The restless soul, the curious mind

Never rest till the truth they find

 

But it keeps eluding us

Escaping and evading us

 

Sleepless nights and starry skies

Hear O God! Our earnest cries

 

The fire burns, the heart beats fast

Is there hope for the seeker at last?

 

Prithee! slow down – hey!

Be patient if you may

 

Despair not if dreams shatter

Efforts – not results matter

(Dr Shehzad Saleem)
