One Man, Many Legacies - Bhai Vir Singh

,
Online

In the words of Prof. Puran Singh: “Bhai Vir Singh is an epoch in himself. He sits under the tree of life in maiden freshness like his Guru. His song is vital and he imparts most of his joy to his poems. His art is of the eyewitness; he writes what he sees; draws his poems from the melody of his soul. This silent poet makes the rivers cry and sets the hills on fire by the touch of his emotion. He remains behind the scenes, invisible, with his flute ringing in the loneliness of a dark midnight.”
