Book Reviews of Sweet on My Lips: The Love Poems of Mirabai
Book Review: Hey Mira
Summary: 5 Stars
Didn't want Mira to feel lonely not having a review. I have this book somewhere in this crazy mess I live in.
If I could find it I am sure I would find some wonderful lines of verse.
Here is a line I once worked with of Mira's.
"The moon was perched like a golden hawk
on the mango tree ..."
Hope that wets your whistle.
Daniel Ladinsky

Summary of Sweet on My Lips: The Love Poems of Mirabai
Poetry. Translated from the Hindi by Louise Landes Levi. The newly printed second edition of this book collects Louise Landes Levi's translations of the 16th century devotional poetry of Mirabai, a female Hindu mystic who sang of her great spiritual love for the lord Krishna. "The beautiful poems of Mirabai have been beautifully translated from the Middle Hindi, and they should serve as a fine key to this tantric poet's consciousness"?Lawrence Ferlinghetti.Poetry Books
