Maqta: Ghalib on Ghalib; 100 Signature Couplets of Mirza Asadullah Khan Ghalib

Sanjay Garg (Translator)

Synopsis

This Maqta series, presented by Sanjay Garg, seeks to bridge the gap between the poetry of the Great Urdu Masters and the milieu of its lovers, who are separated by the language, or the script barrier. In this book Sanjay Garg presents a selection of one hundred Maqta’s of Mirza Ghalib chosen from his choicest ghazals. In this unique anthology, Ghalib could be seen addressing himself occasionally as a critic, sometimes as a sympathizer and a counselor, and yet some other times as his own eulogizer.

Amidst numerous translations of Ghalib’s poetry that continually appear on the literary scenes throughout the world, this small book is an attempt to see this great master through his own eyes.
