Doda your chief became celebrated in the world ! Then he made an agree- 

 ment with Shakal Khan, and made them pass on to Tiimi and wealthy 

 Bakar. 



The helper of Jawanak's armies is the Pir Gaji Barbar. The saint 

 accompanies us, riding on a swift camel, with the lion-like AH. Now that 

 we are come into the Siri and Mithawan (names of torrents on the Derajat 

 frontier). Zihar is the arbitrator between the parties on both sides. Up 

 and down did the two bulls pursue each other (Jielc-hya a Punjabi 

 phrase). Let us deceive them that they may descend to a lower place. 

 Just as a tiger strikes down a buffalo outside its hedge, or as a Simur_^/^ 

 strikes a hawk on the plain, so did the Khan call Arzi and his compa- 

 nions. The Khosas shod their horses, the troop made a rattling. Your 

 chiefs were ashamed, as when the Simm-ffh carries off an elephant. 

 With shields and grey spears Bashkya made a shade. Dilshad Khkn 

 heroically encompassed them about, honour to the father who bore you ! 

 Between the two armies they made their graves red. Doda then quickly 

 made peace with Jawanak Kh&a.
