"When I See, I Sing" is a collection of poetry featuring the works of revered mystics Baba Farid, Namdeo, Kabir, and Rahim, translated with care and adorned with evocative illustrations. The title of the book, drawn from a poignant line by Baba Namdeo, encapsulates essence of this collection - a celebration of the connection between seeing and singing, between experiencing and expressing. Each poet brings a distinct perspective to the collection. Baba Farid, with his humane form of Islam, challenges conventional notions of elitism and division. Namdeo, confronted with caste discrimination, advocates for a direct relationship with the formless God, fostering devotion and compassion.
