"Besides ...in my opinion both echo sahab and zee are not dead chicken come to life belivers but they are very much dil phenk sorts ...maybe not political "sufis" (oxymoron) but somewhere deep inside? id bet money on it
==========================================
Here is my reply in the immortal words of Josh Malihabadi who described me really well (besides himself, of course!)


Aye shakhs agar ECHO ko tOO dhoonDnaa chahay
vo pichhlay pehr halqua-e irfaaN meiN milay gaa
aur subha ko vo naazir-e nazzara-e Qudrat
Tarf-e chaman-O sehn e bayabaaN meiN milay gaa
aur din ko voh sargushtaa-e asraar O ma'anee
shehr-e hunar-O koo-e adeebaaN meiN milay gaa
aur shaam ko voh mard-e khudaa, rind-e kharabaat
Rehmat kada-e badaa faroashaaN meiN milay gaa
aur raat ko vo khalvatee-i kaakul O rukhsaar
bazm-e tarab O koocha-i khoobaaN meiN milay gaa
aur hoga koi jabr toa vo banda-i majboor
muurday kee tarah kalbaa-e ahzaaN meiN milay gaa

===========================================

tr:

Dear fellow, if you are looking for ECHO.
Him, in the wee hours of night you'll find among the seekers of God
and at dawn you'll find this ogler & admirer of Nature
strolling & jogging in the gardens and the parks
Daytime he, the connoisseur of good conversation, intellect and skills
he would be found in the company of craftsmen and literatures
In the evening, that man of God, the wretch the ruined one
would be available in the care and the comfort of the wine-seller
And at night he the ever ensnared one in the charms of her tresses & her visage
will be discovered in the company of the bewitching songstress & dancer
And if there be some restraining ordinance
then that helpless creature
Like a corpse would be found among a coterie of mourning men.








P.S: I translate for fun & in short time. There is always room for refinement!
