0.0

This is a story It may not be factual But is is true. Let's Leave it to the fools To fight and argue whether the ka'aba Actually moved or not. But the fact remains There's not the slightest space Where God is not. About Author : Satjit Wadva has revealed the hidden poetic impulse in the stories of Guru Nanak's life and grasped the discursiveness of Punjabi prose in its totality and then framed it in poetic stanzas with her creative impulse and imaginative delicacy. It is her whole hearted devotion to Guru Nanak that poetry bursts out of her heart and crosses all obstacles and impediments that confront the translator while translating prose into poetry and that too from one language to another.
