Mian Muhammad Baksh penned a famous poem, Saif-ul-Maluk. The gripping beauty of this poem cannot be done justice in this short essay, however I must quote one of my favorite lines: “Ik gunah mera maa-pe waikhan dewan des Nikalan lakh gunah mera Allah waikhay parday pawan aala.” Translation: “A single sin of mine, do my parents witness and they exile me from my lands. A thousand sins does my Allah witness the Veiler of all sins.” ***Mohammed Iqbal Bahu Sings Heer (Waris Shah) & Saif-ul-Mulook (Kalaam Mian Muhammad Bux) click our website link: https://ift.tt/NHuLO4s

The symbolism is explicit; Sohni is the seeker, her beloved is The Beloved (God) and the treacherous, tumultuous river is the dunya. The pot symbolizes the Law, the Path and the Shaykh- the conduit. One cannot expect to cross the river of deception with a weak conduit. Sohni laments to the pot: “how could you betray me like this?” and the pot replies: “Main garha, main khur jana, meinoun hath na lawaein- Pharh palra Pakkay Murshid da, jerha tenoun paar langaway.” Translation: “I am but a pot, unbaked and fragile, do not dare to touch me! Grab onto a true Shaykh, one that shall help you cross.“ *** Listen Kande Utte Meherma Ve is a beautiful Punjabi song, about a lover’s longing for beloved.

Says Sheikh Farid, O my dear friend, attach yourself to the Lord; this body shall turn to dust, and its home shall be a neglected graveyard. You can meet the Lord today, O Sheikh Farid, if you restrain your bird-like desires which keep your mind in turmoil. If I had known that I was to die and not return again, I would not have ruined myself by cilnging to the world of falsehood. So speak the truth, in righteousness, and do not speak falsehood..... ***TUM IDHAR DEKH LO – KALAM BABA FARID – WADALI BROTHERS CLICK OUR WEBSITE LINK: https://ift.tt/YWjkB5s
