Completed this poem on the evening of September the 2nd, 2009...after keying in the lines composed some days ago. Tbis poem is inspired by the visions I often have or dream about while meditating on a topic. Dedicated to MSFM.
*All the names like Mirza Ghalib, Momim Khan Momin, Haali, Meer Taqi Meer, Khawaja Mir Dard and mine are poets while Anarkali is the most famous courtesan of Moghul Emperor Akbar's royal court and Prince Saleem aka Jehangir was his son and successor to his throne...some five hundred years ago. Anarkali and Saleem's love story is famous worldwide specially in India,Pakistan and Bangladesh. Her tomb/grave is in Lahore at a quiet spot...and her true love lives on ...making her famous and famous over the years...while Saleem lies forgotten and dead in every sense of the word...because he did not prove his love for the damsel/dancer he loved in his youth...well let me not talk bad of souls that have left...to their abode, wherever, in the vast universe of God Almighty.
