Abstract

There is a long list of poets who enriched Punjabi language and literature through their valuable literary contributions. Mian Muhammad Bukhsh is one of them. He is truly termed to be the representative of Potohar/semi Lehnda dialect of Punjabi language. His contributions range from creative works to translations from Persian to Punjabi. But his main claim to fame is his legendry poetic work namely Saiful Mulook. This book covers all aspects of human life from moral to spiritual, religious to mundane and economic to social. Given its dealing of human emotions, this book got unprecedented popularity in the Punjab. Many of its couplets have become proverbial in the Punjab. This article is an analytical study of the master piece of Punjabi language Saiful Mulook of Mian Muhammad Bukhsh
