Show notes

Send us a textKhwaja Mir Dard (1721-1785) was born to a highly respected religious family in Delhi. His father had relinquished his position in the Court to lead the life of a Sufi. Dard, therefore, received his spiritual education from his father. Although many poets left Delhi during the invasions of Nadir Shah and Ahmed Shah Abdali, Dard stayed in Delhi and witnessed horrible atrocities. He attained mastery over the Arabic, Persian, and Urdu languages. His close reading of the Quran showed in his poetry. He left behind a collection of Urdu ghazals, a Persian Divan, a prose discourse, a compilation of mystical sayings called Chahaar Risaala, and a book on the Muhammadi path.
