Learning from Women for Women

Abstract

Rekha Pande’s invitation to join her and other women from around the globe to share my travails and triumphs reminded me of Safi Lucknawi’s (d. 1950) Urdu couplet: Ghazal usne chheri, mujhe saz dena, Zara umre rafta ko awaz dena. With profound apologies to Safi, these soul-touching words rendered into English would convey this meaning: “She/he has begun singing the ode, let me have the instrument — would someone recall the years gone by, please.”
