Diwan-e-Ghalib
دیوانِ غالبDiwan-e-Ghalib
The published divan of the greatest Urdu ghazal poet, translated in parts for a century and a half by everyone who loved it, and carried here entire.
The chain
-
edited by Adnan Abbasi in New Delhi
A complete AI-assisted crossing of the published divan that keeps the radif: every couplet of the first ghazal still lands on 'it is not there'. Made for no patron and no market, which chapter eleven of the book calls the fascination clause.
