Like Blake, Peeran sees the world in a grain of sand and Eternity in an hour. An administrator lisping in numbers may sound strange but Muse in Peeran has blossomed into many – splendoured exuberance in this collection of poems - IN GOLDEN TIMES. Every moment of Time is a mountain. Invisible, magical realities beyond our senses, float out of the unconscious, when the boundaries between the self and world are crossed. It opens expanded moments. The poet dives into these moments - one with nature, its darkness and mystery. Thus poems gleam as magical chalices, reality winking at the brim. Here in this collection, there is self-discovery, new grounds to liberate emotions. Let us take his most pensive poem. “Let’s walk away from this listless life to a yonder place where there is no strife, But is full of peace, solace, serenity __ a place full of nature’s beauty, Where rainbows appear upon the skyline, where minds meet the joys of the Divine, Where the art of living is a grace, Where barriers of religions have no trace”. Such poems abound in this volume. The poet rages at the injustice, prevailing all around __ “Voices of the meek ones are suppressed; They are hardly allowed to take a fresh breath. Those that dare are cruelly oppressed And ruthlessly dealt a painful death”. But he powerfully pleads that the good of masses can be restored: “Oneness in god’s plurality is the strength of Hinduism, Islam’s strength is unity in sects’ plurality, Singularity of purpose is the main strength of Jainism, Motto of service is the strength of Christianity, Self-sacrifice is the subtle strength of Sikhism, Buddhism’s solid strength is soul’s purity.” His poem on “LIFE’S STORY” is monumental : “Life is a tale of meetings and partings, Of woes, sorrows, and afflictions, Pleasures, joys, mirth and laughter, Regrets, repentance, remembrances, Fading memories, future fears, Hatred and harrowing experiences, Hearts’ outpourings, mental outbursts, Trials, turmoil’s, tears and tensions, All recording themselves in the form of Either prose or poetry.” In the above, he has portrayed all life’s dimensions – that baffle our everydayness. Tailhard de chardin stresses that the greatest blessing of the poet is to have the sublime unity of God to save the world. Poet Peeran has the concrete immensity of the far beyond. He ascends to higher spiritual planes, developing concentration of thought, increasing power of mind and gaining ecstasy which entails unity with every thing. In this noble task, Peeran attains unique crispness of language and classical gems like “TOTAL SURRENDER” reaches a peak of perfection. “With deep devotion, I burn the Candle Of my life, at His feet in total surrender. I have no complains, demands, compulsions, No grievances, grief, or pain. Undoubtedly, I am captured by HIM.” He writes HAIKU and TANKA with illumined vision. There is inner vibrancy, a matchless verbal incantation in his lyrics ! They gleam as flames, intense and fine. They have visible brilliance. They have deep poignancy. And there is passionate naturalness in all he writes.

Poems of Ajay Sarvaiya, a noted contemporary Gujarati poet translated by Sachin Ketkar

A disturbing contradiction in the portrayal of women is clearly evident when we read, in juxtaposition, the deeply romantic and passionate socio-political poems (most critics and readers, problematically, call them feminist, but I will get back to that!) of Sahir Ludhianvi. Unfortunately, no one, as far as my readings on the works of Sahir tell, has yet attempted to approach and critique his literary work in this fashion. Often what happens is that after a cursory reading of his explicitly women-centric poems like “Aurat,” “Noor Jahan ki Mazar Par,” or “Chakle,” everyone unequivocally agrees and fervently perpetuates the image of Sahir as a die-hard feminist. But no one has yet attempted to notice and comprehend the silently suffering (muh-band) and guilt-ridden women he idealized and ridiculed in his romantic and intimate poems like “Kabhi- Kabhi,” “Khoobsurat Modr,” “Ek Tasveer-e-Rang,” “Isi Dorahe Par,” or “Hiras.”
