Acrylic Painting of Bulleh Shah


 Bulle Shah was a Mughal-era Punjabi Islamic philosopher and Sufi poet.

Staying awake and praying at night
The dogs are also awake,
superior to you

They never stop barking
And go and sleep on a pile of rubbish,
superior to you

They never leave their master’s door
Even when beaten with shoes,
superior to you

Bulleh Shah! You had better achieve something!
Or the dogs will win this contest,
superior to you”

-Bulleh Shah
