DIVAN
of HASAN DEHLAVI Selected Poems Translation & Introduction Paul Smith
Hasan Dehlavi (1253-1328) was a close friend of the great Amir Khusrau and he himself achieved greatness as a poet and Sufi. In his youth although he belonged to a prominent family he worked as an apprentice in a bakery where he met Khusrau who took him to meet his master the Sufi Spiritual Master Nizam ud-din Auliya of the Chishti order. He composed over 800
ghazals
, being influenced by Sadi he began to be called the 'Sadi of Hindustan'. His
ghazals
carried usually only one theme and were simple and natural in their language, using words that were commonly used. In his

qit'as
and
ruba'is
are on love. Rhyme-structures & meaning have been kept in this largest selection of his poems in English. Introduction... Life, Times and Poetry, Poetic Forms used by Hasan
