    Interesting Fact

    (Published: Karachi, 1967)

    Dhā.ī-man aaTe borī

    jab us ne apne kāñdhoñ se

    tāñge meñ luḌhkā.ī

    aur apnī peshānī par se

    ḳhuun pasīna ban kar bahtā paanī poñchhā

    us ke paas khaḌī begam ne

    apne chamkīle baTve ko lahrā kar

    us se pūchhā

    kyuuñ be laḌke

    kitne paise loge tum

    vo ghighyāyā

    bī-bī-jī jo marzī de deñ

    ye sun kar merī nas nas meñ

    ġhusse aur nafrat ik bijlī chamkī

    o re kamīne

    buzdil aur miskīn

    apnī jaa.ez ujrat bhī

    himmat se gardan akḌā kar

    maañg nahīñ saktā

    Dhai-man aaTe ki bori

    jab us ne apne kandhon se

    tange mein luDhkai

    aur apni peshani par se

    KHun pasina ban kar bahta pani ponchha

    us ke pas khaDi begam ne

    apne chamkile baTwe ko lahra kar

    us se puchha

    kyun be laDke

    kitne paise loge tum

    wo ghighyaya

    bi-bi-ji jo marzi de den

    ye sun kar meri nas nas mein

    ghusse aur nafrat ki ek bijli si chamki

    o re kamine

    buzdil aur miskin

    tu apni jaez ujrat bhi

    himmat se gardan akDa kar

    mang nahin sakta
