Beskrivelse af Four More Great Later Classic Sufi Master Poets
FOUR MORE GREAT LATER CLASSIC SUFI MASTER POETS Sarmad, Bedil, Rahman Baba, Bulleh Shah ***SELECTED POEMS*** Translation & Introduction Paul Smith The great Sufi Perfect Master Poets of the Later Classic Age (17th - 18th century) were straightforward and inspiring in the poetic forms of the ghazal, ruba'i, qasida and masnavi and other forms in expressing their love for the Divine Beloved and their contempt for this world and its illusions and explaining the spiritual path. Here are hundreds of beautiful poems by them in the correct form and meaning and biographies about them. Sarmad (d. 1659) was a famous and infamous Persian dervish poet. In India he wrote beautiful mystical poetry in the form of rubai's. He wandered the streets as a naked dervish and was beheaded by Emperor Aurangzeb. Bedil (1644-1721) was born and educated near Patna. His writings in Persian are extensive, being one of the creators of the 'Indian style'. Rahman Baba (1652 to 1711) is considered the greatest Sufi Pashtun poet to compose poems, mainly ghazals, and he was called 'The Nightingale of Peshawar'. Bulleh Shah (1680-1758) was a Sufi poet who composed in Punjabi. His Spiritual Master was Shah Inayat. The poetic form Bulleh Shah is called the Kafi, a style of Punjabi poetry. Included: Introduction: Sufis & Dervishes: Their Art & Use of Poetry & various poetic forms they used. Pages 526.
