Panjabi Lyrics and Proverbs: Translations in Verse and Prose is a book written by Charles Frederick Usborne and published in 1905. The book is a collection of Punjabi lyrics and proverbs, translated into English in both verse and prose form. The author, Usborne, was a British civil servant who spent several years in Punjab, India, during the late 19th century. He was interested in Punjabi literature and language and collected many Punjabi lyrics and proverbs during his time there. The book is divided into two sections: the first section contains Punjabi lyrics translated into English verse, while the second section contains Punjabi proverbs translated into English prose. The Punjabi lyrics cover a wide range of topics, including love, nature, religion, and social issues. The translations are faithful to the original Punjabi text and capture the essence of the songs. The second section of the book contains Punjabi proverbs, which are short, pithy sayings that express a general truth or piece of wisdom. The proverbs are organized thematically, covering topics such as wisdom, friendship, and love. The translations are clear and concise, making the proverbs accessible to readers who are not familiar with Punjabi language and culture. Overall, Panjabi Lyrics and Proverbs: Translations in Verse and Prose is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Punjabi literature and language. The book provides a glimpse into Punjabi culture and offers insights into the Punjabi way of life. The translations are excellent, and the book is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand Punjabi poetry and proverbs.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
