نظم
(سردار شاھ)

ڪجھ شعر لکڻ گھرجن
ڪجھ پيار ڪرڻ گهرجي

ڪو پھر حياتي جي
کيسي مان ڪجي چوري
درياه جي ڪناري تي
ڪا دير وڃي ٿوري
لھرن جون ٻڌي لاتيون
لھرن سان ڪجن باتيون
ڪا ڳالھ اڃي من جي
درياه سان سلڻ گھرجي
ڪجھ پيار ڪرڻ گهرجي
ڪجھ شعر لکڻ گھرجن 

ڪو پھر حياتي جو
جهنگلن ۾ وڃي گهمجي
۽ دل جي ٽاري تان
ڪي پل پکين جھڙا
بي چين ھوا وانگر
چنچل اکين جھڙا
پل پل ٿا اڏن جيڪر
پل پل ئي اڏڻ گھرجي
ڪجھ پيار ڪرڻ گهرجي
ڪجھ شعر لکڻ گھرجن 

ڪو پھر حياتي جو
صحرا سان وڃي ملجي
واري جي وڇاڻي تي
ڪا رات وڃي رھجي
ڀٽ ڀٽ جي سيني ۾
ڪو راز وڃي رکجي
ڪجھ ميگھ مندون ڏيئي
ڪا پياس وٺڻ گهرجي
ڪجھ پيار ڪرڻ گهرجي
ڪجھ شعر لکڻ گھرجن 

ڪو پھر حياتي جو
خود ڏانهن به ورڻ گھرجي
پي ڪير رليو مون ۾
مان ڪنھن سان مليو آهيان
ھو ڪير رنو مون ۾
مان ڪنھن سان کليو آھيان
ڪجھ خود کي ڏسڻ گهرجي
ڪجھ خود کان پڇڻ گھرجي
ڪجھ پيار ڪرڻ گهرجي
ڪجھ شعر لکڻ گھرجن

Translation:

I won’t harm you,
Oh, my flying bumblebee,
I won’t harm you

Let’s write some poetry,
Let’s love a little,
Let’s steal a moment from life’s own pocket

Let’s go to the riverbank,
Let’s invoke the river waves,
Let’s speak to the river of our own longing hearts

Let’s love a little,
Let’s write some poetry

I won’t harm you,
Oh, my flying bumblebee,
I won’t harm you
Oh my flying birdie, 
I won’t harm you

Oh, bumblebee, sitting on my nose pin,
I won’t harm you,
I won’t shoo you away,
My flying bumblebee, I won’t harm you

Flying bumblebee, sitting on my bangle
Oh flying bumblebee, sitting on my bangle

I won’t harm you,
I won’t shoo you away,

My flying…
My flying…
My flying bumblebee, I won’t harm you
My flying birdie, I won’t harm you

Dastaan-e-Moomal Rano - The Sketches - Coke Studio, Season 11

We recently listened the poetry Aziz Khoso, our friend Zulfiqar Fakir introduced his poetry to us and we composed very randomly one of his poetry “Adh Qalandar Chokri” it’s a very first version and we are posting it as test version to see how you folks comments on that. 

It’s a beautiful Sindhi poetry. 

Before this song we haven’t composed any such kind of poetry and we love experimental, this one is pure acoustic and processed in studio but performed live.

Translation in English 

You have your own borders,
Governed by your own laws.

Within you lived a country of mine, 
But you remained unaware of it.

All these butterflies took birth from you.
Oh mysterious feminine, tell me which one is your country?

The desert land looks illusory,
and trees look just like children,

The belly of this river is wide,
And you, just like a young neem tree.

You haven't yet sung any pond in your sweet laari (dialect)
Wonder when will my barren soil become fertile within you?

Over many dunes covered in thick sand leading to Kaasbo (a region in Tharparker),
I have silently looked for your footprints everywhere.

Near Veera Wah that faces Saardhro,
From the land of Rooplo Kohli to Anchalasar and Choorio, I looked for you in all Kohli villages.

Oh girl as sacred as Gori Temple, tell me which one is your abode?

Adh Qalandar Chokri - The Sketches - Test Version (Acoustic)

Musafir Mann - The Sketches 
Live Acoustic (Studio Mix) 

Poet: Sardar Shah 
Language: Sindhi
Art Work & English Translation: Areesha Khuwaja

Transcribed in English 

Where are you, fellow traveler?
My travelling heart calls out to you.


You, me and this dense, dark night are all companions,
And look how the skies rumble for us.

Oh fellow traveler,

If you come as thirst, I will be the monsoon.
This haze will turn into my wedding skirt and I, the bride.

I am a small drop from your ocean of life and when you arrive, I will expand into the whole universe,
And if you don't arrive this time,
then I will become a burden for my own being. 

The breath of my life burns like sandalwood
and calls out to you through its fragrance.
Oh fellow traveler, our hearts are this very country, and this is where we will meet.

Our youth is just like the husk on trees and we will meet before it separates itself from its fruit.

Meeting in person is another story,
We will converge when we meet each other's eyes.

Oh fellow traveler,
I will be within you as you are,
We will unite when you feel me inside of you.

My desire/yearning is thunderous and I strum this body like a tambooro, calling out to you.

“Lyrics in Roman Sindhi”

Musafir Tu Kithe Aaheen
Musafir Mann Saday Tokhe
Musafir Raat Kaari Aa 
Kakkar Karkaat Kan Kedo

Musafir Unya thi Eende
Ta Malhar thi Pawandis
Ghataoon ghaghro theendioon
Ta aaoon kuwaanr thi Pawandis 
Zaro aa zaat tuhiniya jo
Sajo sansaar thi pawandis
Na aayain Hela je dholiya
Badan te baar thi Pawandis 
Sandal je kaath wangur po
Jalyo jobhan saday Tokhe 
Musafir Tu Kithe Aaheen

Musafir Mann watan Aahay
Hitay ee panr milanda seen
Kacho ee boor juwaniya jo
Na shirki shaanr milanda seen
Badan ji baat bee Aahay 
Akhin khe aanr milanda seen 
To main to jiyaan hoondus
Mitha tu maanr milanda seen 

Musafir Tu Kithe Aaheen
Musafir Mann Saday Tokhe
Wajayaan wijja wangur thi
Tambooro tann saday tokhe
Musafir Raat Kaari Aa 
Kakkar Karkaat Kan Kedo
