A free mans s veins are hard like the stone’s veins

THE AMANNENSIS OF MULLAH ZAIGHUM
From the Note Book of MuIlah Zada Zaightttu Lolabi of Kashmir

A free mans s veins are hard like the stone’s veins,
The veins of ruled are soft like veins of soft canes.

A slave’s heart is dead, sad and hopeless hence,
The free’s heart alive with flames of joys sense.

A lucent heart, free man’s wealth and verves worm,
The wealth of ruled just a weeping eyes form.

A ruled can not make with free man a tie,
This is slave of sky, he’s master of sky.
