Opis

DARD: LIFE & POEMS Translation & Introduction by Paul Smith Khwaja Mir Dard (1720-1784) is considered one of the three great poets of the Delhi school of classical Urdu poetry. He is firstly a Sufi poet who saw the physical world as a veil of the Divine Reality and this world a pathway. As a Sufi he was respected equally by royalty, nobility and the poor. It was his father Khwaja Mohd Nasir Andlib, a Sufi saint and poet, who was the greatest influence on him. Dard was a great lover of mystical music both vocal and instrumental and he held soirees of music and mastered the art to perfection. At 28 he renounced earthly pleasures for a life of piety and humility. He taught one should happily submit to the will of God. He was able to successfully transmit his mystical philosophy into his poetry and his ghazals can be, like Hafiz's, read in both a mystical and secular way. Most of his ghazals were seven to nine couplets. His Divans of ruba'is, ghazals and other forms are in Urdu and Persian, and he wrote articles on Sufism. The correct rhyme structure has been achieved in all the different forms. 120 pages Introduction to Sufi Poets Series AATISH, 'AISHAH Al-BA'UNIYAH, AMIR KHUSRAU, ANSARI, ANVARI, AL-MA'ARRI, 'ARIFI, 'ATTAR, ABU SA'ID, AUHAD UD-DIN, BABA FARID, BABA AZFAL, BABA TAHIR, BEDIL, BULLEH SHAH, DARA SHIKOH, DARD, GHALIB, GHANI KASHMIRI, HAFIZ, HASAN DEHLAVI, IBN 'ARABI, IBN YAMIN, IBN AL-FARID, IQBAL, INAYAT KHAN, 'IRAQI, JAHAN KHATUN, JAMI, JIGAR, KAMAL AD-DIN, KABIR, KHAQANI, KHAYYAM, LALLA DED, MAKHFI, MANSUR HALLAJ, MIR, MU'IN UD-DIN CHISHTI, NAZIR, NESIMI, NIZAMI, NUND RISHI, OBEYD ZAKANI, RAHMAN BABA, RUMI, SADI, SA'IB, SANA'I, SARMAD, SAUDA, SEEMAB, SHABISTARI, SHAH LATIF, SHAH NI'MAT'ULLAH, SULTAN BAHU, YUNUS EMRE, ZAFAR, ZAUQ, EARLY ARABIC SUFI, EARLY PERSIAN SUFI, URDU SUFI, TURKISH SUFI, AFGHAN SUFI POETS 90-120 pages each.
