Sing A Song Of Tajmahal Poem by s.zaynab kamoonpury
Sing A Song Of Tajmahal
Sing a song of Tajmahal
a fine rhyme or a ghazal
Of this landmark for lovers
ah, a lover's edifice
Complete with medieval bowers
It's a Mecca for tourists!
Tis sensational, tis exceptional
tis truly a touristy place.
Watch the shimmer of its magnificent marbled dome
Moonlight or sunlight, it glimmers of imperial chrome
It's ironical then
that though Indian I am
I haven't yet been to this touristy place
It is truly as they must say, a lover's shrine
a place where hearts duly incline
They find it steamy
I find it dreamy
Oh, I've got to see for myself this touristy place
Each of the marbled minarets
conceal such romantic secrets
for lovers to silently explore
to admire and to adore
A place human lovebirds couldn't ignore.
Ah you've got to visit this touristy place!
Two famed lovers lie in the legendary vault below
and the stream too it has a romantic flow
It's a lovers haven and paradise on earth
Even dead passions there undergo a rebirth
Ah, rekindle my love for you in this touristy place!
Extol I may this awesome imposing edifice
A greed for pure love is perhaps better than avarice
Löng live the legend of Shah jahan and Mumtaz mahal
Long live love and love like a Moghul
so forever we have this touristy grace!
Yeah take me my luv to this touristy place!
You must have been in this touristy place. CauseI can see it and and feel it..
I too love to visit there.still a dream many hundred kilometres away lol
Zaynub has a persistent will to improve, if she manages to lessen narrating, her poems will be fantastic

ek shahanshah ne bawayee thee................................/................//// but your write is more hasi(n) /beautiful than tajmahal bcoz when i think on the aspect what the grt Shayar wrote it looks ugly.but ur write 100% b'ful.10+++++
A lovely tribute to a great work, the Taj is an amazing building a true wonder of the world, this poem does a great job of celebrating it, a tribute to the Great Shah whose spirit would be pleased its power still unfolds today. Thank you for writing this inspirational work.
Shouldn't scare u just like romeo n juliet's dyin in lov doesnt scare readers. Tajmahal is a shrine built for his belovd dead wife by emperor shah jehan. And to love therefore it has become a shrine, a place of romance. Even lady Di went there.
I am confused. Is that a crypt of the dead? Otherwise it is a beautiful place, but if there are dead lovers?
