So here is what i get from this kafi.

thaangar kanon thoongar changa,
Jaihn wich lakan kuttay,
taykan utay,
**a garbage place or decayed building is better than villas and farm house as animals like dogs survive there. Here poet highlighting and cursing elite class for caring not about poor people **

panmbhann kanon kalal changa,
Jehrra kharri peya v chukkay,
taykan utay,
**Brahmins are good for nothing and Shudras are better than Brahmins as they preform cleansing work. Criticizing the caste system in Hinduism **

meanings and explaination:
thaangar = living place
thoongar = Trash, garbage place or a place where scorpios are found
Lakan= hiding
dogs usually are found in dirt places in villages as there is a saying regarding dogs “Pind nu agg lagi tey kutta ruhrri te”.

panmbhann= Brahmins
Kalal= someone who performs cleansing work, shudras.
Kharri= agay = in front.

well done and thanks :k:

thaangar is also used in Sindhi but its a composite word =Thath (Thatt) Thaangar = Shan o Shokat. This is the word which is basis from the name of Thatta (a city which was capital of Sindh and learning centre for long time)
