salaam dosto
how are you? hope you all will be well, iA.
yes, you have read it correctly! i’m posting an English Ghazal. this Ghazal is the FIRST one i’ve ever seen…it’s a Ghair muraddaf Ghazal, meaning it had no radeef [the last one or more word that repeats in the first two misr’as of the matl’a and then follows in all the alternate misr’as]. however, this Ghazal is NOT in meter [bahr] or vazan.
i’ve also seen a murass’a [well balanced] Ghazal with radeef and qawaafii [the rhyming words that are found just before radeef] and properly metered…[in bahr and vazan].
at first sight this seems just an attempt to make qafiyas (without any thought) or probably I don’t have developed taste of Englsih poetry
broken inglis ij good a-nof!
