The Project Manager's Life 35
One tends to think that the most important aspect of a project manager’s job is the tracking, charting, and reporting of progress. If this is the case, then the project manager’s responsibilities are quite passive.
On the contrary, his is an active job and one of his most important tasks is thinking. Every day the project manager is faced with challenges that require deliberation and care before taking action. Rahat Indori has taken a verbal snapshot that encapsulates this for us:

I am just immersed in this thought.
How might I cross this river?
Rahat Indori
बस इसी सोच में हूँ डूबा हु्आ
ये नदी कैसे पार की जाए
राहत इन्दोरी
بس اسی سوچ میں ہوں ڈوبا ہوا
یہ ندی کیسے پار کی جاۓ
راحت اندوری

Every project is a river of challenges.

Nice one.
Though, I wish there was a way to preserve the 'dooba hua' i.e. 'immersed' in the first line, which really connects to the 'river' in the second.
Nice point, Siyaah. I should have picked that up when I was making the translation.
In fact, I am going to edit the translation based on your advice.
Shukriya.
