रूमी ईरान के सर्वाधिक प्रसिद्ध कवि हैं। उनकी ग़ज़लें ऊर्जस्वी काव्य के दुर्लभ उदाहरणों में से हैं। रूमी की ग़ज़लें सामान्य कविताओं की तुलना में अलग हैं। इनकी प्रत्येक ग़ज़ल का हर शे’र आत्म-अनुभूति की परिपूर्णता से उच्छलित है। इनकी कविता केवल काव्यात्मक चमत्कारों को प्रदर्शित कर पाठकों को लुब्ध करने में पर्यवसित नहीं होती, बल्कि दिल से निकलकर मस्तिष्क और हृदय को भिगोती हुई आत्मा तक का स्पर्श कर लेती है। प्रस्तुत पुस्तक उनकी चुनिन्दा 100 ग़ज़लों का अनुवाद है। इस पुस्तक के माध्यम से रूमी पहली बार सीधे फ़ारसी से हिन्दी में अनूदित हुए हैं। इसमें सबसे पहले फ़ारसी ग़ज़लों का देवनागरी में लिप्यन्तरण प्रस्तुत किया गया है, फिर साथ में ही उनका हिन्दी अनुवाद दिया गया है। अन्त में मूल ग़ज़लें फ़ारसी लिपि में भी रखी गई हैं। पुस्तक के अन्त में दिए गए अनेक परिशिष्टों के माध्यम से फ़ारसी काव्य-भाषा को समझने के महत्त्वपूर्ण उपकरण जुटाए गए हैं। ग़ज़लों में प्रयुक्त सभी छन्दों को ईरानी तथा भारतीय काव्यशास्त्रीय रीति से समझाया गया है। क्लासिकल फ़ारसी कविता के सम्यक् परिचय के लिए आवश्यक संक्षिप्त फ़ारसी व्याकरण जोड़ा गया है। अन्त में प्रत्येक शब्द का अर्थ भी दिया गया है। इस प्रकार मूल से जुड़े रसपूर्ण अनुवाद की प्रस्तुति के साथ ही यह पुस्तक रूमी-रीडर के तौर पर भी उपयोग में आने योग्य है।

Dear reader, I wrote this book for the ones who feel everything too deeply. The rare souls who still listen to their hearts and believe in love. The ones who don’t hurt others just because they’re in pain. The ones who wear their hearts on their sleeves and carry kindness within. The ones who overthink, over-invest in people and over-love, always. This book is an ocean full of feelings, so if at any point, you feel like you’re drowning, take a moment to remind yourself that it’s a privilege to feel emotions as intensely as you do. Some people are so disconnected from their hearts that they don’t allow themselves to feel anything at all. That being said, I wish you a happy reading. This book will make you cry. Love, Rithvik

The poems of Ramesh Pokhriyal "Nishank" represent innate, passionate ramifications and poetic mystification for readers. While they may include hymns and religious instructions, what stands out is the sentimental piety in the poems offered within this collection. As a poet, Nishank surveys possibilities, comparing them to actualities, facts, theories, alternatives, and ideals, weighing them together. Thus, his work is both insightful and foresightful, providing a sense of life’s worth. Remarkably, these poems are not complex; they are simple and pliable. The doctrines and practices they endorse are not new or recent but align with established norms. The poems that emerge from darkness invigorate the spirit, making our hearts dance and enveloping us in a mystical softness, enchanting enough to soothe distressed feelings while instilling a sense of truth, clarity, and refinement. Nishank conjures images of everyday, affable life, depicting socially intellectual and passionate men who dance, croon, and fall yet rise again—shortly devastated but soon resilient. His poems are both popular and distinctly contemplative. Hidden behind his voice lies every man; if you wish to understand his character, let the doors of the heart open and allow them to speak. *** The ardor for humankind may pulse in every throb of my heart; let there be a beautiful person within me. My only desire in this life is to die for my country, with my life as an emblem for humanity. *** Like worms clothing the wheat, jealousy, like termites, hollow out the preposterous. *** To erase darkness, those who burn like torches do so even in adverse torrents; they never extinguish. *** Happiness resides in the present, not in the future; it rests in the depths of the mind. —From this collection.

His love transcends personal longing, exploring the origins of solitude and connecting it to the stillness of the cosmos, contemplating the mysteries that enshroud it.

"Ghalib was a poet who mocked hardship, a philosopher who dared to argue with God, and a man who turned disappointment into an art form. Though often wrapped in layers of difficult language and intricate thought, at the heart of his vast poetic “ocean” lies a single, luminous “drop” - his deeply human individuality. He was the ultimate maverick: urbane, ironic, and restlessly modern, forever questioning, forever unsettled. Ocean in a Drop draws back the curtain on Urdu’s greatest genius. Stripping away academic clutter, this book approaches Ghalib through his most iconic she’rs, revealing the man behind the mystique. You will discover: ~ The Persona: The ego, the wit, and the “shroudless” independence of a 19th-century rebel. ~ The Wound: How he transformed neglect and betrayal into a mark of distinction. ~ The Edge: His playful yet profound walk along the borders of faith, existence, and the void. This is not a textbook. It is a conversation - intimate, unguarded - with a man who understood that life is chaotic, and that humour is often its only redemption. Whether you have long admired him or are meeting him for the first time, this is Ghalib as he was meant to be known: sharp, soulful, and unmistakably his own."

Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal "Nishank", like all romantic poets, is generally a poet who is strong-willed and intelligent and possesses an unusually subtle mind. While going through his poetry and nature poetry, we see nature sympathetically with unusual unreputable emotional responses. Moreover, it stands in sharp contrast to rationalistic moods. Nishank is fond of personifying nature and is desirous of associating with the beauteous forms of the world that coexist with the laws and order of the universe. When Nishank fuses scientific and religious notions, he proposes a metaphysical idea adapted to the cosmos' natural design. Hence, through this choicest collection of his poems, Nishank agrees with the universal phenomenon that nature provides an influence which spontaneously refines and purifies the soul of the human generation. A "must-read" collection of representative poems of Shri Nishank.

Through fragments of myth, poetry, and shadowed memory, the book traces the path of a woman who is both wound and blade, both destruction and divinity- an eternal return to power she never truly lost.
