You’ll Discover a Gifted Writer Who May Be Entirely New to You
The jewel box of images is just the beginning of the allure. The big question for me was, who is this poet, and why have I not heard of him? Like most people of my generation, my education was tilted heavily towards the western canon, but fine writing from other parts of the world regularly becomes available in translation. Thanks, for instance, to the translations of Coleman Barks, the 13th century Persian mystic Rumi has become one of the most widely read poets in our country – but who has heard of Navoiy?
For many years as a recluse I hid away.
Do dreams and visions come to one seeking life’s pearl?
Not surprisingly Navoiy left for the desert
Seeking solace from passion’s impregnable pearl.
Although born almost 250 years after Rumi, Navoiy also lived in Central Asia, and came out of its Sufi tradition. Prolific and multi-talented, Navoiy worked as a public administrator, linguist, builder, painter, and political advisor, as well as producing many volumes of poetry and other writings. In this regard, he brings to mind such other polymath poets as Dante and Chaucer.
My misery, lyrical, flows gently inward
Turns rebellious stir into modulated life.
The thick ashes of ignominy fall, bring fluster.
In that moment all plainly saw my ruined life.
