Urdu, one is the major languages of South Asia, has a wide and varied literature, and its poetry especially is known and loved by a great many who are not native speakers. This anthology presents a major selection of Urdu verse in English translation chosen from the work of poets who lived between the sixteenth and twentieth centuries. The poems, accompanied by devanagari transliteration of the original Urdu text, are loosely grouped under a number of headings providing a fair representation of the subjects which have attracted Urdu poets over the centuries.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Very accessible translation of heartfelt poems,
By Louise G. Brandt (San Francisco bay area,CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: An Anthology of Urdu Verse in English: with the original poems in Devanagari (Oxford India Paperbacks Series) (Paperback)
These very emotion pact and often humorous poems are translated into very accessible english. I am using this book with my English literacy student who is a native speaker of Urdu. She is pleased with the translations. Note the "original" script used opposite the English translations is in Hindi, not Urdu.
