ਹੈ ਕੋਊ ਐਸਾ ਮੀਤੁ ਜਿ ਤੋਰੈ ਬਿਖਮ ਗਾਂਠਿ ॥
ਨਾਨਕ ਇਕੁ ਸ੍ਰੀਧਰਨਾਥੁ ਜਿ ਟੂਟੇ ਲੇਇ ਸਾਂਠਿ ॥੧੫॥

Can I find a friend in anyone at all,
Who can untie this tight knot of mine?
O Nanak, there is only Lakshmi’s lord,
Who reunites those long broken loves.

Guru Arjan, Phunahe, Ang 1363.

Last year, after enjoying a rare opportunity to visit Wheeler Thackston at his home, I launched this page as a quick reference on the Persian poetic meters as he presents them in his textbook. I've been gradually adding features, including links to example poems for given meters.
