Abstract
Objective of this paper is to report the seasonal migration of Brahui tribes between Sindh and Khurasan highlighted in Brahui poetry. The scenes of which are beautifully poetized approximately in every field of Brahui poetry specially in the smallest clause of Japanese poetry called Haiku which is well used in Brahui poetry. In summers near the mountains of Balochistan, many Brahui tribes in form of groups typically called ‘‘Alum’’ are seen spending social life in their basic dwelling unit tent typically called ‘‘Gidan’’. In presence of these tribes the mountains and their surroundings present an eye catching view whereas in winters the same mountains and their surroundings are seen barren, desolate and bleak due to the seasonal migrations of the said tribes to the hot areas of Kachchi and Sindh. This seasonal migration of the Brahui tribes is constant from thousands of years. Their encampment near the mountains and their journey with their cattle and other livelihood materials in the dale of Bolan and Mula make the barren mountains more beautiful and displaus eye catching views. The same poetic pictures of the nomadic life of Brahui tribes will be described in this paper via Brahui Haiku
