Saw this picture in Daily Times and actually laughed out loud. How much more Pakistani could a bakra be, than riding on a rickshaw with its head sticking out.
Not sure what the title of the picture should be. Maybe you can help.

Dear Readers,
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP. While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors
First a nice meal; now a tour of the city; can it get any better !
1. “Ching chee’ would have been more humiliating
2. My new owner is good; I will walk the dusty roads no more
The Last Bray of the Bakra.
(With apologies to Walter Scott—- The LAY OF THE LAST MINISTREL)
Bakra is in pain and it reminds me a misra
Dekho mujhe dedae-Ibrat Nigharoun sey
Pls correct me if this misra is wrong, I tried to google but didn’t find a single instance of this misra.
