Madhuri Shinde

I am an ardent fan of everything that is poetry and that gives me enough reason to start this space. I have been writing and self-learning poetry and literature for around two decades. Urdu poetry has been the key area of my interest.

At Ghazalnaama, I plan to share simplified English meaning of Urdu poetry (especially couplets) by renowned poets, saint poets, and lesser-known poets.

The purpose of Ghazalnaama is to create an anthology of Urdu poetry along with English explanation so that native as well as non-native readers can enjoy this rich tradition of poetry. Ghazalnaama also aims to become a community to harness and spread the grandeur and profundity of Urdu poetry.

Welcome to Ghazalnaama!
