Udasi's udaasi!

Posted: Apr 17, 2009 Fri 10:13 am     Views: 287    Interacts: 0

today's news of Zardari going around the world with a begging bowl reminded me of these lines of a song by revolutionary Punjabi poet late Sant Ram Udasi:

jehdey sohneyaN shehraaN di shaan moohrey
jhukey paye ney piNd kamaan vaaNgooN
arth-chaara hai vesva vaaNg jehda
jholi jehdi be-an'khey insaan vaangooN

maaN dhartiye sadaa suhaagneiN neeN
meray yaaraaN nooN janam na deyiN oThay
