Suhini said: “Are you coming down? Or do I make you fall by pulling you down?” Suhini held his legs which were dangling down the branch of a tree he became conscious as soon as his legs were pulled. He was so much engrossed in playing a flute that he became inattentive. She loudly called Mehar who was enjoying melodies of flute as: “Mehar! Meharda!”Īt least for two minutes, Mehar did not pay heed. Tossing one neatly cleaned shining pot in her hand, Suhini came one afternoon at the Coast of Sindhu River. Mehar even liked the curt remarks of the girl. The young daughter of Tolo potter named Suhini was taunting him many a time by calling him an orphan. People of the village called him by the name ‘Mehar’. There was no idea from where he had come and who his parents were. It is very good that in folk tales such spiritual and metaphoric tone is observed.]Īt the bank of the river Sindhu, buffaloes were grazing among tall waist length grass and the young shepherd was playing flute by sitting under the canopy of trees. Suhini stands for mortal human being and Mehar stands for God and husband of Suhini is Sayar which symbolizes this world-by creating such meaning the Poet, expresses soul’s longing for god and in Sindhi literature it is considered as the best type of work. The powerful philosopher and poet of Sindh named Abed Latif visualized spirituality in mortal events. Suhini-Mehar is the real story of folk life. The problem of evoking feeling in two lines is solved in this way and even sentence construction does not get spoiled. Instead of our first line there are two lines. So far as composition is considered both resemble with each other. Duha cited in the story consist of three lines. ‘Suhini–Mehar’ is one of the stories of Sindh.
