Success???
 

Dear Friends,

Though this poem doesnt qualify the definition of painful shayri... I thought, it would be loved by our dard forum friends..... I apologise to friends havin reservations about this post being posted here in dard saction ---

That's Success----
It's doing your job the best you can
And being just to your fellow man;
It's making money, but holding friends
And true to your aims and ends.
It's figuring how and learning why
And looking forward and thinking high
And dreaming a little and doing much.
It's keeping always in closest touch
With what is finest in word and deed;
It's being thorough, yet making speed;
It's daring blithely the field of chance
While making labor a brave romance;
It's going onward despite defeat
And fighting staunchly, but keeping sweet;
It's being clean and it's playing fair;
It's laughing lightly at Dame Despair;
It's looking up at the stars above
And drinking deeply of life and love.
It's struggling on with the will to win
But taking loss with a cheerful grin;
It's sharing sorrow and work and mirth
And making better this good old earth;
It's serving, striving through strain and stress;
It's doing your noblest - that's Success!
