A friend sent this image on WhatsApp to me a few days ago and I have been thinking about the message that it conveys all this time.
Transliteration:
Guzar jaathay hain…..khubsurat lamhen….
yunhi musafiron ki tharah…..
Yaaden vahin khadi rah jaathi hai….
rukkay raasthon ki tharah….
Ek umr ke baad us umr ki baathein umr bhar
yaad aathi hai…
Par wah umr phir umrbhar nahin aathi…!
Translation:
Beautiful moments pass away just like passing travellers…
Memories remain static just like the roads traversed…
After an age memories of the past keep haunting for the rest of our years…
But those moments never return throughout our lives…!
Not sure what it means. Especially moments not returning – they do in memory if we let them.

Memories do most certainly return but, not the moments themselves.
it suggests to me two avenues – you don’t find those truly beautiful moments you had earlier in your life OR you remember fondly some truly beautiful moments from before…
Yes, you are right. We are left only with the memories.
True, as we experience new moments and new memories to join those filed away.
Thank you.
