Meaning
i dug ,dug and dug deep,
i could not find it anywhere,
i flew sky limits,
it was still not there,
i swam ocean depths,
luck could not locate it yet,
i talked to millions,
still could not get its whereabouts,
seers,sages,saints and philosophers,
got me entangled about it further,
commoners said they just lived with it,
and did not know where it was,
placed hopelessly as I was,
life "itself" emerged on a day,
and said,
you will know my meaning,
when you are dead.
