Description:
The mystical romance Madhumalati tells the story of a prince, Manohar, and his love for the beautiful princess Madhumalati. When they are separated they have to endure suffering, adventure, and transformation before they can be reunited and experience true happiness. Madhumalati functions as both a delightful love story and as a metaphor for the stages on the spiritual path towards enlightenment. It was written in the sixteenth century and is an outstanding example of Sufi literature in the Indian Islamic tradition. Originally written in a dialect of Eastern Hindi, it is translated here for the first time into English verse, with an introduction and notes that explain the poem's religious significance.
