About The Book

The poem 'Chirag-e-Dair' or Temple Lamp is an eloquent and vibrant Persian masnavi by Mirza Ghalib. While we quote liberally from his Urdu poetry we know little of his writings in Persian and while we read of his love for the city of Delhi we discover in temple Lamp his rapture over the spiritual and sensual city of Banaras. . Chiragh-e-dair is being translated directly from Persian into English in its entirety for the first time with a critical Introduction by Maaz Bin Bilal. It is Mirza Ghalib's pean to Kashi which he calls Kaaba-e-Hindostan or the Mecca of India.
