HAPPY BIRTHDAY, my blessed little Sister!
When we were young, Papa always called
You “Black Patti”! Now we know why:
A Senryu Quintet Tribute To “Black Patti (1868-1933): **
For My Sister, Sula “Black Patti” Baye (08/25/1943)
Water gives rivers life
I swanee, “Black Patti” gave
Life to the songs she sang:-
“Black Patti” felt that
Singing songs was to her, as
Sunshine to flowers:-
When “Black Patti” sang,
Flowers flooded world stages:
Concert Halls, sold out!
She was Mitilda
Sissieretta Jones: singing
Abolitionist!
Black Patti, rather
Than Adelina Patti, was
Their Era’s Greatest!
**When others sit down and do oursrorical research,
They will know why Papa gave you that honor. Go
And enjoy another blessed year, perpendicular to
Earth and Heaven. To God Be The Glory. In the
Onederful oneness of the onement of Extended
Family, Peace And Love, your favorite Brother,
Deac.
Mene kal ek jhalak zindagi ko dekha,
Woh meri raha mein gunguna rahi thi...
Dhundha usse idher udher,
Woh aankh micholi kar muskara rahi thi...
Ek aarse k baad aaya mujhe karaar,
Woh sehla k mujhe sula rahi thi...
Hum dono kyu khafa hai ek dusre se ,
Mein usse aur woh mujhe bata rahi thi...
Mene Puch liya "tune mujhe ye Dard kyun diya"
Usne pyaar se kaha
"Zindagi Hoon mein paglae ....mein toh bas Tujhe Jina Sikha rahi thi...!!!
Buja dey garmi ban jaa Meri jaan
Smile......
Chod dey caasani chod dey jalabi bakwas dey mitaas teyre hooto ki Meri jaan
Jaan ley jaan ki Tham ley Hath Meri jaan
Sula De Meri jaan chupa dey Meri Chilim Meri jaan
Meri jaan bus sula dey jaan
Baanja soue gaadja dil mai ley ley jaan Meri jaan
Na chube tare kabhi dekh luga Meri jaan
Sek ley taan Meri yaad baan ja yaad Meri jaan bus soolade Meri jaan
Na bharu ga wo sindoor jo mit jae tip tip kar key pakad ley dahakan dhaak dhaak kar ke Meri jaan
With love all
