Abstract
The poetry of Shah Abdul Latif Bhitai abounds in verses indicating
the need for national unity. He believes that unity is one of the major elements
which strengthen the foundations of progressive and prosperous nations. In
Sur Dahar of Shah Jo Risalo, the collection of Shah Latif’s poetry, the collective flight of the flock of birds called ‘Koonj’ (crane) has been used as the symbol of unity. He has also used the ‘Caravan of Camels’ in Sur Hussaini in the
same symbolic sense. Shah Latif prescribes ‘Unity’ to his people as a formula
for obtaining a high position among the nations world over.
This research article is a textual analysis of the selected verses of
Shah Latif highlighting his concept of National Unity.
