ਪੰਜਾਬ ਦੇ ਮਹਿਬੂਬ ਸ਼ਾਇਰ ਨੇ ਪੈਂਡੂ ਜ਼ਿੰਦਗੀ ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਬਿਰਹਾ ਲਈ ਸ਼ਬਦ ਲੱਭੇ, ਪਰਾਗਾ ਤੇ ਮੱਢਲ ਤੋਂ ਲੈ ਕੇ ਕੰਡਿਆਲੀ ਥੋਹਰ ਤੇ ਭਘਾਟ ਤੱਕ। ਸ਼ਿਵ ਕੁਮਾਰ ਨੇ ਆਪਣੇ ਨਾਮ ਨਾਲ ਨਾ ਕਦੇ ਸ਼ਰਮਾ ਲਿੱਖਿਆ ਤੇ ਨਾ ਹੀ ਬਟਾਲਵੀ। ਹੰਜ ਦੀ ਜੂਨੇ ਆਏ ਅਤੇ ਹਿਜਰ ਦੀ ਪਰਕਰਮਾ ਕਰਕੇ ਤੁਰ ਗਏ ਸ਼ਿਵ ਕੁਮਾਰ ਦਾ ਪੰਜਾਬ ਤੇ ਪੰਜਾਬੀ ਜ਼ੁਬਾਨ ਸਦਾ ਰਿਣੀ ਰਹਿਣਗੇ।

When an old man dies, a library burns to the ground
