Muharram and Mir Anis have become synonymous in our part of the world. In fact, Mir Anis is a great teacher for the young generation if it wants to feed itself on the gems of Urdu poetry. Undoubtedly, Urdu derives much of its strength from the Marsias of Mir Anis.

This volume contains a rendering in English of over a hundred poems chosen from the four collections of Iqbal's poetry written in Urdu, which include religious, lyrical, satirical and other themes. The English versions are accompanied by the original text. Review

What made Mir Anis so important as to be equated with the best names of world literature. May be because of his art of breathing life into words and making them signify the signified splendidly. It has become almost impossible to think of Marsia without Mir Anis. He has taken Marsia to the zenith. All that he has achieved for Urdu poetry is difficult to imitate, let alone excel him.

by Qamar Jalalwi
Qamar Jalalwi's proficiency in the field of ghazals and 'marsia-nigary', led him to be recognized as the last poet from the school of 'Mir Taqi Meer'- no small honor by any means. Qamar Jalalwi's death has left a void in Urdu literature which will be hard to fill. But thankfully for us he has left, and his daughter has accumulated for us, some of the richest verses in Urdu Literature.

Iqbal, also known as "Shaere-Mashriq" (Poet of the East!) first published his "Bang-e-Dara" (Call of the Caravan) in March 1924. Since then it has continued to be a favorite with both young and the old.
A variety of poetic themes along with high quality printing and a very presentable layout has made this a compulsory addition to any Pakistani household.

by Nasir Kazmi
Nasir Kazmi continues to be one of the most well known and beloved Urdu poets of the post-partition era. Although no longer with us his poetry continues to delight us in its many incarnations. The ‘Kulyaat- E –Nasir’, a supreme collection of his ‘ghazals’, ‘nazms’ and ‘dramas’ is a reminder of the genius of the poet.
Full of unfulfilled ambitions and tragedies, Nasir Kazmi’s ‘Kulyaat’ is a legacy to be cherished.

This book recounts the unfolding of a dream and the journey that took the author from the midst of an Australian bushland paradise to the rapture of devotion at the Shrines of the Great Sufi Saints in Pakistan and India. It is a story of the yearning and searching for the Beloved, a story of love and loneliness.
