Salaam ba Hama,
I love Bedil’s poetry and just as Me jan said have problem understanding his work. There is a new magazine called Ashyaan that is being published here in Toronto. There is a section written by Mr. Kazim Kazimy explaining some work of Bedil. If you guys can try to get your hands on one, I m sure you will enjoy reading it.
Although I love most of his work, I m gona write you just a short part of one of his poems.:
Muzhgaan Ba Ham Bastam o Raftam Ba Kheiaalash
Parhaiz-e Tamaasha Ba Che Nairang Shekastam.
You have no idea
how hard I've looked for a gift to bring You.
Nothing seemed right.
Whats the point of bringing gold to a gold mine,
or water to the Ocean.
Everything I came up with
was like taking spices to the Orient.
Its no good giving my heart and soul
because You already have these.
So - I've brought You a mirror.
Look at Yourself and remember me.
-Rumi
