Riddles of Amir Khusrow

During this time, Khusrow wrote not only many playful riddles, but songs and legends which have been a part of popular culture in South Asia ever since.

Additionally, his riddles and songs and legends are considered to be an important early witness to the Hindustani language.

[1] Innumerable riddles by this poet are being passed through oral tradition for the past seven centuries with a notable increase in recent times.

He found some beautiful, sparkling pearls, and gave them to me to keep, But alas, I can’t find them now where I kept, Have searched every corner, even in the bazaar; What to do, Oh my friend?

This fellow is beautiful like an idol, whoever sees him, looks like him; Haven’t understood this riddle, am guessing but can’t figure out.
