*سنڌ جو تعليم - خالي ڪرسين جو نوحو*

Sindh jo Taleem - Khali Kursiyun jo Nauho

Sindh's Education - Elegy of Empty Chairs

سنڌ ڌرتي، سنڌ ڌرتي، حالت گهڻي خراب،

Sindh dharti, Sindh dharti, haalat ghani kharab,

Land of Sindh, land of Sindh, the situation is very bad,

اسڪول خالي، ڪرسي خالي، استاد غائب، تعليم خراب!

School khali, kursi khali, ustaad ghaib, taleem kharab!

Schools empty, chairs empty, teachers absent, education ruined!

ننڍڙو پڇي ٿو "ماستر ڪٿي؟"، جواب ۾ خاموشي،

Nindhro puchhe tho "Maastar kithe?", jawab mein khamoshi,

The little one asks "Where is the teacher?", in response, silence,

سنڌ جي تعليم، هاءِ خدا، ٿي وئي برباد!

Sindh ji taleem, haai Khuda, thi wayi barbaad!

Sindh's education, oh God, it has been destroyed!

خيرپور کان ڪراچي تائين، هڪڙي ئي ڪهاڻي،

Khairpur khan Karachi taain, hikri hi kahani,

From Khairpur to Karachi, it's the same story,

ديوارون ڊٺل، نه بليڪ بورڊ، نه پاڻي.

Deewarun dithal, na blackboard, na paani.

Walls are broken, no blackboard, no water.

گھوسٽ اسڪول گهڻا، نالو بس ڪاغزن ۾،

Ghost school ghana, naalo bas kaaghzun mein,

Many ghost schools, names only on paper,

ٻار رلي ويا، وڏيرن جي چڪرن ۾.

Baar ruli waya, wadern ji chakrun mein.

Children are lost, caught in the schemes of landlords.

ماءُ چوي ٿي "پٽ پڙهه، ته ٿيندين وڏو ماڻهو"،

Maau chaway thi "Put parh, ta theendin wado maanhuo",

Mother says "Son, study, so you will become a great person",

پر ڪتابن کان خالي، هٿ ۾ اٿس خالي وٽو.

Par kitaaban khan khali, hath mein athas khali wato.

But empty of books, he has an empty bowl in his hand.

فيس لاءِ پئسو ناهي، پيٽ بک تي آهي،

Fees laai paiso naahi, pet bhuk te aahe,

There's no money for fees, the stomach is hungry,

تعليم اميرن جي، غريبن لاءِ سپنو آهي.

Taleem ameeran ji, ghareeban laai sapno aahe.

Education is for the rich, for the poor it's a dream.

او حڪمران! او وڏيرا! اکيون کوليو ٿوريون،

O hukmraan! O wadera! Akhiyun kholiyo thoriyun,

Oh rulers! Oh landlords! Open your eyes a little,

اسان جو مستقبل، قلم سان جوڙيو.

Asaan jo mustaqbil, qalam saan joriyo.

Our future, connect it with the pen.

اسڪول کوليو، استاد موڪليو، ڪتاب ڏيو هٿن ۾،

School kholiyo, ustaad mokliyo, kitaab diyo hathun mein,

Open schools, send teachers, give books in their hands,

سنڌ جاڳندي ته، روشني ايندي راتين ۾.

Sindh jaagandi ta, roshni aindi raatin mein.

If Sindh awakens, light will come in the nights.

سنڌ پڙهندي ته، سنڌ اڳتي وڌندي،

Sindh parhendi ta, Sindh agte wadhandi,

If Sindh studies, Sindh will progress,

جهالت ويندي ته، روشني ايندي!

Jahaalat waindi ta, roshni aindi!

If ignorance goes, light will come!

ننڍڙو پڇي "ماستر ڪٿي؟" چئو - "هتي آهي"،

Nindhro puchhe "Maastar kithe?" chao - "Hite aahe",

The little one asks "Where is the teacher?" say - "Here he is",

سنڌ جي تعليم، اسان بچائينداسين!

Sindh ji taleem, asaan bachaindaasin!

Sindh's education, we will save it!

Lines explained

“گھوسٽ اسڪول گهڻا، نالو بس ڪاغزن ۾،”

Ghost school ghana, naalo bas kaaghzun mein,

Many ghost schools, names only on paper,

Ghost schools are a common issue in Pakistan, referring to schools that exist on paper but are non-functional, often due to corruption where funds are allocated but not used for their intended purpose.

“ٻار رلي ويا، وڏيرن جي چڪرن ۾.”

Baar ruli waya, wadern ji chakrun mein.

Children are lost, caught in the schemes of landlords.

Wadern (landlords) refers to the powerful feudal lords in Sindh who often control local politics and resources, sometimes at the expense of public services like education.

“اسان جو مستقبل، قلم سان جوڙيو.”

Asaan jo mustaqbil, qalam saan joriyo.

Our future, connect it with the pen.

Connecting the future with the pen is a metaphor for education being the key to a brighter future and progress for the region and its people.
