Mir Taqi Mir Translations

Couplets by Mir Taqi Mir loose translations by Michael R. Burch Sharpen the barbs of every thorn, O lunatic desert! Perhaps another hobbler, limping by on blistered feet, follows me! ?Mir Taqi Mir, loose translation by Michael R. Burch My life is a bubble, this world an illusion. ?Mir Taqi Mir, loose translation by Michael R. Burch Selflessness has gotten me nowhere: I neglected myself far too long. ?Mir Taqi Mir, loose translation by Michael R. Burch I know now that I know nothing, and it only took me a lifetime to learn! ?Mir Taqi Mir, loose translation by Michael R. Burch Love's just beginning, so why do you whine? Why not wait and watch how things unwind! ?Mir Taqi Mir, loose translation by Michael R. Burch
