    'notes':
    - 'phrase': 'Amir'
      'meaning': 'Ghalib, Mahda Majruh and Amar- These are three very eminent poets of India who practiced their art in Delhi. Amar Khusroe lived during a period when Urdu was being created but was not known by that name. At that time it was called Raikhtah and was a mixture of Persian and Hindi, which was one of the dialects of Sanskrit. Raikhtah in Persian means "mixed", to indicate that the language was a mixture of Persian and Hindi in which the two languages were distinctly separate from each other. Amar Khusroe was one of the architects of such a language and his genius lies in doing that more successfully than others. He is also famous for devotional poetry in which the Love of God is described in beautiful style. It refers to the famous poet of Delhi, Amar Mana’a. If so the mention of Amar''s "mana" with reference to his poetic name is very artistic.'
