This post is dedicated to all my sindhi folks out there...
During my childhood days my mother was obsessed with qualities of milk and just like most other kids I hated it too but she gavage me. I still remember, she used to recite a very nice poetry when I refused drinking and am sure most of the sindhi kids must have heard too. It goes like...
Jo Kheer Piye
So veer thiye
Dand zor vathhan
Daadha sunhira lagan
Akhiun ji jyot vadhe
Dadhi sunha thiye
Vathe zor badan
Lighan chust thiyan
Kheer safa sutho
Wah dadho mitho
Baaro acho piyoun
Bhare khir vatiyoun
De khir amma
Pee Parhan Vanya :)
As I grew older I started liking it and I like milk till this day. In fact I still prefer milk over coffee or tea.
I don't know why, today while drinking milk, this poem came to my mind and how my mother used to recite it.
Here is the audio if you would like to cherish your old memories

Non sindhi folks, I know you must have stopped reading it after the second line... It means:
The one who drinks milk
Becomes brave/heroic
Has Strong teeth
Looks very handsome
The glow in his eyes increases
Develops strong limbs
Milk is so good
Oh so sweet
Come children
The bowls are filled with milk
Give me milk mother
So that I drink and go to study
