_Giants_--_Râkshasa_, for which see previous notes.
_Nîlâ city_--Most probably Bâgh Nîlâb on the Indus to the south
of Atak.
_Verses_--In the original these are--
_Na ro, mata bholîe: na aswân dhalkâe: Tere bete ki 'îvaz main
sir desân châe. Nîle-ghorewâlîd Râjâ, munh dhârî, sir pag, Woh
jo dekhte âunde, jin khâiâ sârâ jag_.
Weep not, foolish mother, drop no tears:
I will give my head for thy son.
Gray-horsed Raja: bearded face and turban on head,
He whom you see coming is he who has destroyed my life!
_Verses_--In original--
_Nasso, bhajo, bhâîo! Dekho koî gali! Tehrî agg dhonkaî, so
sir te ân balî! Sûjhanhârî sûjh gae; hun laihndî charhdî jâe!
Jithe sânûn sûkh mile, so jhatpat kare upâe!
Fly, fly, brethren! look out for some road!
Such a fire is burning that it will come and burn our heads!
Our fate has come, we shall now be destroyed!
Make some plan at once for our relief._
_Gandgari Mountains_--Gandgarh Hills, to the north of Atak; for a
