WALI DECCANI: LIFE & POEMS Introduction to Sufi Poets Series Translation & Introduction by Paul Smith Wali Deccani was born in 1667 in Aurangabad, Maharashtra, India. He loved travelling and his visit to Delhi in 1700 is considered to be of significance for Urdu ghazals. His simple, sensuous and melodious poems in Urdu, awakened the Persian loving poets of Delhi to the beauty and capability of 'Rekhta' (the old name for Urdu) as a medium of poetic expression. He stimulated the growth and development of Urdu ghazal in Delhi. Wali lived in a time of political and social turmoil but sought his sustenance from the larger mystic traditions of India. He considered literature as a way of negotiating between the physical and the spiritual. The figure of the lover in his poetry represents both the worlds of the sensual and the non-sensual. Even though well versed in the Persian literary tradition and the Deccani and Hindi phraseology, Wali surprised the literary circle in Delhi with his non-Persianised Urdu divan and its linguistic freshness, which till then was called rekhta, a language of the lesser literay kind, not quite fit for sober poetic expression. His choice for the plebeian idiom and his effort to blend it with other linguistic and literary traditions of the north and the south altered the stereotypical notions of those who championed the purity of language, as a necessary condition for serious literary expression. Wali mainly composed ghazals: 473, comprising of 3225 couplets. Wali lived in a time of political and social turmoil but sought his sustenance from the larger mystic traditions of India. He considered literature as a way of negotiating between the physical and the spiritual. His favourite theme was love, mystical (Sufi) and earthly, and his tone was one of cheerful affirmation and acceptance, rather than of melancholy. Wali died in Ahmedabad in 1707, and is buried there.
