Shah Abdul Laf Bhiai (1689-1752) is the most prominent and influenal poet because of his message of love, paence, humanism, courage, tolerance, peace, opmism etc., which is richly embedded in his poetry. Mr. Ernest Trumpp (1828-1885), a German etymologist and philologist, was the first
ever scholar who compiled the poetry of Shah Abdul Laf Bhiai entled
“Shah Jo Risalo” in Sindhi language and got it printed from Germany in 1866.
Shah Abdul Laf was a great traveler and thus has used a variety of
words in his poetry. Numerous words and terms of various dialects of Sindhi
language, folk stories of Sindh and common masses are found in his poetry
which have very arscally been used to express his thoughts and philosophy.
Therefore a need was felt to present meanings and equivalents of such terms
and words so that so that a common reader could understand the poetry of
Shah Abdul Laf Bhiai. In this connecon, Bheroomal Meharchand Advani
and Mirza Qaleech Beg, in the early 20th century, aempted to compile two
diconaries of Shah Jo Risalo named “Ghareeb-ul-Lughaat” and “Lughaat-eLafi” respecvely. Besides, a good enough number of compilers and editors
of Shah Jo Risalo like Professor Hotchand Moolchand Gurbakhchhani, Ghulam
Muhammad Shahwani, Kalyan Advani, Allama I. I. Qazi, Dr. Nabi Bux Khan
Baloch, Banho’n Khan Shaikh have put meanings at the boom of the pages
as foot notes or at the end of Surs (melodies) of Shah Jo Risalo. Moreover, few
books by Dr. A@ab Abro, Ms. Jeem Ain Munghani and Muhammad Hussain
Kashif have also have been published which help greatly to understand the
language and lexicon of Shah Abdul Laf. In addion to these aempts, numerous research papers were published, me and again, in various literary
magazines, research journals and books offer several aspects of Shah Abdul
Laf Bhiai’s lexicon in detailed manner.
