SINDHI LANGUAGE LOK GEET BY DR ABDUL JABBAR JUNEJO

  SINDHI LANGUAGE POETRY AND DR ABDUL JABBAR JUNEJO  Dr Abdul Jabbar Junejo worked tirelessly to promote Sindhi language. He was fluent in Urdu and English language. More interestingly, he knew Chinese language as well.  Someone to learn such a difficult language certainly was a great skill.  Since he wrote a book about Persian poetry's influence on Sindhi poetry, indicates his love and understanding of languages naturally. I found this book titled, "Sindhi Lok Geet", when I visited Lok Virsa in Islamabad few years ago. It ignited my interest, to know the local folklore stories that get passed through the  generations. Unfortuantely, the story telling tradition seem to be suffering since the new. mediums have been introduced with time. therefore one has to look for it in books etc. Please do visit Lok Virsa in Islamabad, that proudly promotes various cultures of Pakistan through displays of arts, books and other audios such as CDs etc. You will find, displays of furniture, embroidery, paintings and almost live displays of various scenes of many colours of Pakistan. Please do share, your own cultural experiences with us. Thanks [email protected]
