Saalgirah e Ghalib
December 27th, 2008
I’ve been doing some travelling in last 1 week or so, first to Yosemite Valley and then to the famous/infamous Winchester Mystery House. Amidst travelling, I sit down today and remember our beloved Mirza Ghalib on his 212th Birth Anniversary with this verse:
“लो हम मरीज़ ऐ इश्क के बीमारदार हैं
अच्छा अगर न हो तो मसीहा का क्या इलाज”

This misty mountain reminds me of my own poems in my poetry books like THE VISION OF LIFE and SOARING HIGH TO SUBLIMITY. If you publish the translation of the verse you have quoted from Ghalib it may be possible to know a glimpse about his thoughts as a poet of Nature. Hope your poems and songs will entertain us in 2009 as was in 2008. Wish you A Happy New Year 2009 in advance!
