The separation from homeland and longing for it in the context of Partition of 1947 is epitomised by British Punjabi poet Mazhar Tirmazi in his play "Umraan Langhiyan Pabhan Bha"r [A Lifetime on Tiptoes]. The play draws attention to syncretic cultural values and human interaction that can forge connections in a world marred by violence, prejudice, and communalism.
