A singular figure in the Bhakti movement, Meera Bai (1498−1547) is the only woman among North India’s most revered poet-saints. Her story is one of steadfast spiritual rebellion. Born a Rajput princess in 1498, wedded young, widowed early—Meera Bai refused to fade into the shadows of the palace and the pyre. Instead, she claimed Krishna, the cowherd-god, as her divine lover and composed ardent poetry that defied caste rules, gender norms, and social traditions. Her timeless bhajans resonate as ecstatic love letters to her dark Lord. In this volume, Manjul Bajaj interprets the imagery and symbols, metaphors and motifs of Meera Bai’s hymns for the modern reader and presents seventy-five devotional songs in a fresh and eloquent translation.
