Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urdu translation in verse of the Persian odes of Mirza Ghalib. Ghalib was born in in 1797 and died 72 years later. He was a member of the landed gentry of India and became the favorite of the last Mughal king, himself a renowned poet. He wrote poetry in both Persian and Urdu. And although he wrote more in Persian than in Urdu, it was his Urdu poetry that has made him immortal. His Persian Poetry remains largely unread, primarily because the Urdu-speaking poeple who love him, generally speaking, do not know Persian. Ghalib is not only romantic but is also very deep and philosophical and it is these traits that has made his poetry so precious. In this book Khalid Hameed Shaida, has presented the Urdu translation of Ghalib's Persian odes in verse in the hope that the Urdu-speaking people will also be able to enjoy what their beloved poet wrote in Persian.

Download or read book Ghalib written by Mirza Asadullah Khan Ghalib and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-28 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This selection of poetry and prose by Ghalib provides an accessible and wide-ranging introduction to the preeminent Urdu poet of the nineteenth century. Ghalib's poems, especially his ghazals, remain beloved throughout South Asia for their arresting intelligence and lively wit. His letters—informal, humorous, and deeply personal—reveal the vigor of his prose style and the warmth of his friendships. These careful translations allow readers with little or no knowledge of Urdu to appreciate the wide range of Ghalib's poetry, from his gift for extreme simplicity to his taste for unresolvable complexities of structure. Beginning with a critical introduction for nonspecialists and specialists alike, Frances Pritchett and Owen Cornwall present a selection of Ghalib's works, carefully annotating details of poetic form. Their translation maintains line-for-line accuracy and thereby preserves complex poetic devices that play upon the tension between the two lines of each verse. The book includes whole ghazals, selected individual verses from other ghazals, poems in other genres, and letters. The book also includes a glossary, the Urdu text of the original poetry, and an appendix containing Ghalib's comments on his own verses.

Download or read book The Treasure written by Surinder Deol and published by Partridge Publishing. This book was released on 2018-08-25 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mirza Ghalib, Indias most loved poet, lived at a time of great political and cultural transformation when the established order, the mighty Mughal Empire, was falling apart around midnineteenth century and the new regime spearheaded by the East India Company was not yet fully in place. There are multiple lenses that can be used to look at Ghalibs work. At the surface, he is a romantic poet par excellence. But if we dig deeper, Ghalib is much more than a romantic poet. He expressed ideas that came from conflicting philosophical traditions, namely the concept of shunyata (nonexistence) that is a core belief in Buddhist philosophy and the concept of Maya that is at the center of Vedantic philosophy. This book contains lyrical free verse English translation of 235 ghazals contained in Ghalibs Urdu Divan, popularly known as Divan-e Ghalib. One reason that makes the second revised and expanded edition of the book unique and extremely valuable is the addition of original Urdu text in an easy-to-read Romanized format. According to distinguished literary critic and leading Ghalib scholar Professor Gopi Chand Narang, Ghalib was never so close to the reader as he is now with this work. Surinder has succeeded in his creative transformation of Mirzas ghazals into poetic English where others have failed.

This book was released on 2019-04 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: POEMS OF GHALIB A Selection (Large Print & Large Format Edition) Translation & Introduction Paul Smith. Mirza Ghalib (1797-1869} was born in the city of Agra of parents with Turkish aristocratic ancestry. He later lived on state patronage, credit or the generosity of friends. His fame came to him posthumously. He had remarked during his life that although his age had ignored his greatness he would be recognized by later generations. History vindicated his claim. Although he wrote many more ghazals, qit'as and ruba'is in Persian he is more famous for those written in Urdu. Before Ghalib, the Urdu ghazal was primarily an expression of anguished love but Ghalib expressed his philosophy and cynicism. In keeping with the conventions of the ghazal, in most of Ghalib's couplets the 'beloved' could be a beautiful woman, boy, monarch or God or the Spiritual Master as in his many Sufi poems. Here is the largest selection of his Persian & Urdu ghazals, ruba'is, qit'as and other poems in the correct form and meaning in English ever published. Introduction: Poetry, Life & Times and on the Forms of Poetry he used. Selected Bibliography. Large Print 16pt., Large Format, 8" x 10" 367 pages. Paul Smith (b.1945) is a poet, author and translator of many books of Sufi poets from the Persian, Arabic, Urdu, Turkish, Pashtu and other languages including Hafez, Sadi, Nizami, Rumi, 'Attar, Sana'i, Jahan Khatun, Obeyd Zakani, Mu'in, Amir Khusrau, Nesimi, Kabir, Anvari, Ansari, Jami, Omar Khayyam, Rudaki, Yunus Emre, Lalla Ded, Rahman Baba, Baba Latif, Iqbal, Seemab, Huma, Nazir and others, and his own poetry, fiction, plays, biographies and 12 screenplays. amazon.com/author/smithpa

  • Release : 2019-11-22
  • ISBN : 9353057027
  • Pages : 146 pages

Download or read book Ghalib written by Raza Mir and published by Penguin Random House India Private Limited. This book was released on 2019-11-22 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mirza Ghalib is perhaps the most widely chronicled Urdu poet in English. But few can pithily capture the essence of his life and work as enjoyably as Raza Mir can. In this lively, witty and illuminating account, Ghalib emerges from these pages as a man of his time but also one who looms large over history. Raza infuses his research with just the right amount of anecdote and trivia, evoking Ghalib as an outspoken genius, a game-changer who never shied away from aiming a witty barb (or three) at his rivals. Moreover, Ghalib also lived in a crucial age that saw the end of Mughal rule and the destruction of his beloved Delhi. Ghalib: A Thousand Desires also comprises a selection of the great poet's most enduring poems and ghazals, accompanied by Raza's insightful commentary that decodes underlying themes and meanings in these verses.
