Sing a song of Taj Mahal

Sing a song of Taj Mahal

Sing a song of Tajmahal
a fine nazm or a ghazal
Of this landmark for lovers
Ah, a lover's edifice
Complete with medieval bowers
It's a Mecca for tourists!Β 
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-Arabian 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
LΓΆng live the legend of Shah jahan and Mumtaz mahal
Long live love and love like a Moghul
so forever we have this monumental grace!
Yeah take me my luv to this touristy place!

Hello, S.zaynab.kamoonpury.
The Taj Mahal sounds like a mystical, magical palace...place, I mean.
I enjoyed the odd, occasional rhyming in this piece--quite unique.
I have never had the pleasure of visiting India but I was offered a job in Dubai.
I declined but now wish I had gone.
Nice writing; keep up the inspired work.

I like how you put it, it is mystical, the place, medieval heritage everyone loves to visit yeah.Β 
Yeah my rhyme is meandering and odd I guess for following my muse instead of vice versa like professional conventional poets. Must be also due to English not being my mother tongue perhaps.Β 
Dubai ah I admire Dubai muchly.
thanks soo much for your feedback and thoughts .

Dear S. zaynab.,

The greatest monument there is
To everlasting love
Is the Palace of the Taj Mahal
Ordained by God's above

.
Shah Jahan lost his Soulmate
At a very early age
And had built this great memorial
Twenty years it took to stage

.
Now people come from far and wide
To feel the love that's in it's air
Two eternal Soulmates lay 'neath them
History's most romantic pair

Peace and Love,
Larry xxx
