In episode 25, we cover the poem A Spider and A Fly (ek makṛā aur makhī). It has a great lesson, but more importantly it's full of tons of great vocabulary words. Though a bit difficult, if you return to it again and again, it'll start to make sense and even be fun to listen to. This nazm (poem) is written by Allama Iqbal - a famous Urdu poet.
