Ansar’s Couplets

I was paying some family and friends a visit in Ottawa. One morning an uncle woke me up with the following couplets before Fajr.

I have no idea what inspired them but they struck a chord, the way he spoke Urdu in a thick Punjabi accent.

Bashir Khan

Khun tera hein Isfahan

Naujawan

Bashir Khan

Sher Jahaan - Utja!

Ajaigi Tera chaand

Bashir Khan

Translated (isn’t as good)

Bashir Khan

The blood is yours Isfahan

Bashir Khan

Lion of the Universe - Wake up!

Your shining moon will come to you

Bashir Khan

His son was married later that day.

It’s from الله
