Song Description: A Treasure of Sweet SoundsThis song, recorded when my son was only seven, is a precious gem from a collection of recordings capturing the vibrant spirit of my children at every stage of their lives. Sung with the pure, unfiltered joy of childhood, its sweet sounds—woven with playful gibberish syllables in a musical pattern—resonate with innocence and boundless creativity. Preserved over decades, from analogue tapes to digital archives, these recordings are treasures of my soul, each note a testament to the love and wonder of their upbringing.As my son celebrates his 20th birthday on September 1, 2025, I revisit this recording, and it brings tears of joy and a pang of astonishment. His voice, brimming with the promise of endless possibilities, recalls a childhood filled with imagination. Yet, it also carries a bittersweet weight as I reflect on how the world—our chaotic lives, their schooling, and environments—may not have always provided the support they deserved. This song serves as a reminder of my accountability for their present and future, urging me to nurture the brilliance they still carry from those early, miraculous days.Listen with Irfan (LwI)A tapestry of voices and stories, spun with careSupport LwI — a soulful creation shaped by affection, thriving on the warmth of its listeners.

Poet in his voice. Recorded and curated by Irfan**Asad Zaidi, a distinguished poet, journalist, and editor whose multifaceted contributions to literature and society have left an indelible mark. Born on August 31, 1954, in Karauli, the capital of the erstwhile princely state in Rajasthan's Bharatpur Divisional Commissionerate, Asad Zaidi's journey is one of intellectual and artistic exploration. From his roots in Karauli, his path took him through the cultural landscapes of Agra, Jaipur, and Udaipur before finding a home in Delhi, where he has lived for decades, shaping the literary and intellectual discourse of contemporary India.Asad Zaidi is celebrated as a significant voice in Hindi poetry, often mentioned alongside luminaries like Mangalesh Dabral for his profound and thought-provoking verses. His poetic journey began with his debut collection, Behne aur Anya Kavitaein (1980), which established him as a distinctive voice in contemporary Hindi literature. Subsequent works, including Kavita ka Jivan (1988) and Saman ki Talash (2008), have earned critical acclaim for their lyrical depth and engagement with socio-political themes. His anthology Sare Shaam (2014), which compiles his three poetry collections, showcases his ability to weave personal and collective experiences into a rich poetic tapestry. In 1981, he was honored with the Sanskriti Award for his contributions to Hindi literature, a testament to his early impact on the literary world.Beyond poetry, Asad Zaidi is a versatile intellectual with a deep passion for cinema, music, and visual art. His critical writings reflect a nuanced understanding of these art forms, often exploring their intersections with culture and society. As a journalist and editor, he has been a fearless commentator, addressing complex issues with clarity and insight. His work extends to translations, bridging Hindi, Urdu, and English by rendering works of European, Latin American, and Chinese poets into Hindi and Urdu, as well as translating Urdu poetry into Hindi and Hindi poetry into English.As the founder of Three Essays Collective, an independent publishing house based in Delhi, Asad Zaidi, alongside his wife, historian Nalini Taneja, has created a platform that tackles challenging socio-political and cultural issues through thought-provoking books. The publishing house is known for its commitment to fostering dialogue on critical topics, engaging with the complexities of our times in a meaningful way. Asad Zaidi's contributions are not confined to the page; they resonate in his ability to connect art, literature, and social commentary. His poetry, often described as both prophetic and reflective, challenges the conventions of the Hindi literary world while remaining deeply rooted in its linguistic and cultural heritage. His interests in education and social commentary further amplify his role as a thinker who engages with the world around him, making him a vital voice in today's literary landscape.I am thrilled to feature Asad Zaidi in our Guftagoo conversation, where his poetic wisdom and cultural insights will undoubtedly inspire our audience. Join us in celebrating this remarkable poet, whose words continue to illuminate and provoke thought, as we explore his journey and contributions to literature and beyond.Listen with Irfan (LwI)A tapestry of voices and stories, spun with careSupport LwI - a soulful creation shaped by affection, thriving on the warmth of its listeners.
