Mir Dard: 100 Selected Ghazals – Urdu
With Pronunciation and Glossary
Introduction to Mir Dard : 100 Selected Ghazals. This book is in Urdu
Khwaja Mir Dard was not only a poet but a mystic—a voice that transformed the Urdu ghazal into a vessel of spiritual insight, Sufi wisdom, and inner awakening. His poetry speaks not of worldly love, but of the soul’s longing for the Divine, shaped by deep reflection, purity of heart, and metaphysical clarity.
Dard’s ghazals are marked by simplicity of language, spiritual symbolism, and emotional stillness. His verses guide the reader inward, from illusion to reality, from the ego to the eternal. Every couplet reflects a life lived in contemplation, rooted in the unity of being and the path of self-purification.
This volume, Dard: 100 Selected Ghazals, presents a thoughtful selection from his deeply reflective work. The edition includes fully vocalized Urdu text for correct pronunciation and rhythm, along with a comprehensive Urdu glossary to aid readers in understanding Sufi concepts and classical diction.
