    Shah Abdul Latif Bhitai, the deeply loved Sindhi Sufi poet of the 18th century, spoke through the famously tragic love legends of the Punjab and Sindh region. In this song, Latif speaks in the voice of Sasui, whose beloved Punhoon has been wrested away from her on the morning following her wedding night by Punhoon’s kinsmen angered by the cross-community marriage. This is a well-known song sung by many different singers in the oral traditions of Shah Latif, which straddle both sides of the border between Pakistan and India.
    Sasui is a Brahmin girl abandoned at birth by her parents and raised in Bhambhor by a childless Muslim washerman and washerwoman couple. Her crime is to fall in love with a stranger called Punhoon, who is King Aari Jaam’s son. For this crime, her punishment is to have her husband abducted on the morning following her wedding night! He’s plied through the night with alcohol by his brothers and then put on to their camels and taken across the desert, back to where he came from. Sasui, determined as steel, sets off alone across the hot desert, without any supplies, in the pursuit of her retreating beloved.
    At this moment, Sasui is stepping into the harsh Thar desert when her friends try to stop her from embarking on this impossible journey. She brushes them off with the words of this song. She knows that the path to finding her Beloved, her truth, her own true self, cannot be without the necessary striving and suffering.
    Enjoy the bhajan in the soulful voice of Sakur Khan.
    ___________
    English translation of the song -
    Sasui’s grief is immense
    She weeps at every step
    She’s crossed mountains
    No trace of Punhoon’s footsteps
    Friends, a barren desert lies ahead
    Don’t think of coming with me
    For one, there is no water
    Second, the path is long and desolate
    You’ll curse my Punhoon
    When you perish on the way
    Friends, be on your way
    My destiny is in the dunes
    Friends, you go your way
    I’m bound to Punhu
    Allah Miyan
    In the city of Bhambhor
    Hear the plea of this poor wretch
    My destiny is written
    Allah Miyan
    Put shackles on the feet
    Of the camels of Aari Jaam
    My fate is sealed
    Allah Miyan
    Shah Latif says, listen friends
    The thirst within me is intense
    My destiny is written
