Sometimes, the poems that moved us once… return when we need them most.
In this special episode, Simerjeet Singh revisits “Baith Jata Hoon Mitti Pe Aksar” — a piece that resonated with millions when it first found its way into hearts nearly a decade ago.
Now, in 2025, its message feels more relevant than ever:
Stay grounded. Stay real. Choose peace over applause.
With lines that speak of ego, loss, and the strange solitude of success, this soulful Hindi–Urdu poem is a gentle reminder to reconnect with your values in a world that often rushes past them.
“Jeet jao to apne peeche chhoot jaate hain...
Aur agar haar jao, to apne hi peecha chhod jaate hain.”
Whether you’re feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or just need a moment to reflect — let this timeless poem bring you home to yourself.
Press play, close your eyes, and let the stillness sink in.
If it brings you peace, pass it on.
