THE SHAIKH WAS GIVING A SERMON ON THE MODE OF OPERATION

Translation
The Shaikh was giving a sermon on the mode of operation
 �The infidels of India are very hard working in business

Polytheists are those having trade relations with polytheists
But our nation�s people are lacking in intelligence and sense

Unclean is the article touched by the infidel
Should listen if Muslim�s ears are amenable to truth!

A drunkard was also present in the sermon�s  assembly
To whom such talks as those of the preacher were irksome

He said, �It is atrocious that in such restrictions
Are imprisoned the dealings in articles of eating and drink�

                I said, �There is no difficulty for you
                As in India Muslims also are liquor sellers!�1


Explanatory Notes
1.
This is a sarcasm on the fact that a fairly large number of the Muslims in India were dealing in wine and other intoxicants.
