Rozaa aein nimaazoo, ee pinn changno kam,
O ko bbiyo fahim, jahain saan pasijay preen khhy.

روزا ۽ نمازون اي پڻ چڱو ڪم
او ڪو ٻيو فهم جنهن سان پسجي پرين کي
Feelings and prayers are good acts but that
Which leads you to the Beloved is something else. ~ Shah Abdul Latif

Sindh jay samaaj mein kahen maannho'a jo Sayad hujann bu kamaaee jo zareeyo aahay, un syed jo waree sajaada nasheen hu'ann wetar wadheek kamaaee jo zareeyo aahay, aein un jo siyaasat mein huann bb'a chaar wikkhoon wadheek kamaaee waaro kam aahay. Syed khhay Sindh jay samaaj maan maalee faaido haasil karann jaa mathiyaan tay zareeaa/ zareeya aahin.

سنڌ جي سماج ۾ ڪنهن ماڻهوءَ جو سيد هجڻ به ڪمائيءَ جو ذريعو آهي، ان سيد جو وري سجادا نشين هئڻ ويتر وڌيڪ ڪمائيءَ جو ذريعو آهي ۽ ان جو وري سياست ۾ هئڻ ٻه چار وکون وڌيڪ ڪمائيءَ وارو آهي. سيد کي سنڌ جي سماج مان مالي طرح فائدو حاصل ڪرڻ جا مٿيان ٽي ذريعا آهن

Sayad sajaada nasheen bu aahay, siyaasat bu karay tho, par anjnaa bu wadheek, Sayad falsafee bu aahay, lekhhak bu aahay. Par unhan panjan manjhaan, hin darwaish zaati faaido ko bu haasil na kayo, hin kay bu bb'a chaar paisaa kon-a kamaaya aahin, hin kanhen kkhan bu kujh na warto aahay. Subhini kkhay ruggo ddino athas. Hin hitaan jay samaaj mein nazar niyaaz aein bbee ahrray qism jee ddaytee laytee waaran imkaanan khhy aazadi saan rad karay hik naeen rasam shuroo kaee aahay.

سيد سجادا نشين به آهي، سياست به ڪري ٿو، پر اڃان به وڌيڪ، سيد فلسفي به آهي، ليکڪ به آهي، پر انهن پنجن منجهان هن درويش ذاتي فائدو ڪو به حاصل نه ڪيو آهي، هن ڪي به ٻه چار پيسا ڪون ڪمايا آهن. هن ڪنهن کان به ڪجهه ڪون ورتو آهي، سڀني کي رڳو ڏنو اٿس. هن هتان جي سماج ۾ نظر نياز ۽ ٻي اهڙي قسم جي ڏيتي ليتي وارن امڪانن کي آزاديءَ سان رد ڪري، هڪ نئين رسم شروع ڪئي آهي
(چاچو حفيظ قريشي)
