FROM THE WORDS OF BULLEH SHAH

Bullhe kolon chullhā changā

Better a cooking hearth

Two ways into the same verse. Tap a line to find its echo.

Better than Bulleh is the hearth that gives the hungry food.

बुल्ल्हे कोलों चुल्ल्हा चंगा, जिस पर ताअम पकाई दा ।

The wandering poor sit close and share each little mouthful out.

रल फ़कीरां मजलिस कीती, भोरा भोरा खाई दा ।

THE POEM, GIVEN VOICE

One verse. Many voices.

Stay with the words.
Then hear how they travel.
