Kese Bhoool gaya wo guzre huwe din - DHANAKA SHARIF
It would be of general public interest, especially the tax-payers, to know if a resident pir lives in the Prime Minister House presently. Nawaz Sharif’s pir of the past was the celebrated Dewana Baba of Dhanaka Sharif in Mansehra District. His real name was Rahmat Ullah. He died in 2008. In his second term as PM, Sharif had his village electrified, according to a source from that area. When Sharif exited in 1993, the only ‘souvenir’ he left behind for his successor Benazir Bhutto was Dewana Baba. BB must have believed that if the Baba got Sharif two terms in office, surely the pir’s prayers and blessings must have endowed her too. My source tells me she would trek the hilly terrain where the Baba lived holding a danda to beat his VVIP and other visitors with. The more the beating, the more the benedictions from the pir. Eventually, PM Benazir had a helipad constructed for her frequent commute. “Dhanaka Sharif was also connected with the outside world through the construction of a paved road on Benazir Bhutto’s orders,” says the source.

Kese Bhoool gaya wo guzre huwe din


Kese Bhoool gaya wo guzre huwe din


Lagta nahi tha us ka dil mere bin


Dosto se kaha karta tha wo b,


Kiya ye b ji sakta hai mere bin


Mazaq ban jaya karta tha jo Doston mein


khud ko tanha samjta tha wo mere bin


Isse hade diwangi kahoon ya pagalpan


tasawar me wo batein kiya karta tha mere bin


Wo mosmoon k badlny se darta nahi tha lekin


bahar mein murjhaya karta tha mere bin


Ab As tot gain uske aani ki



Lagta hai Jina sekh chuka hai mere bin...
