While presenting the budget, the country's Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman read a poem in Kashmiri language today. After this, he also told the translation of that poem.

Our country is blooming like Shalimar Bagh
Our country is blooming in the Dal Lake
Our country is like hot blood of young people
My country, your country, our country
The world's most beloved country


The Hindi Translation of poem is like this
हमारा वतन खिलते हुए शालीमार बाग जैसा
हमारा वतन डल लेक में खिलते हुए कमल जैसा
हमारा वतन नौजवानों के गरम खून जैसा
मेरा वतन, तेरा वतन, हमारा वतन
दुनिया का सबसे प्यारा वतन


After this, the Finance minister said that this poem has been written by Kashmiri poet Dinanath Nadim, who has also been awarded the Sahitya Akademi.

Know who is Dinanath Nadim, whose poetry resonated with the Lok Sabha.

Dinanath Nadim is similar to the Vat tree of modern Kashmiri poetry. He has immense influence in the modern period of Kashmiri literature. His name is among the poets who give new direction and condition to literature. Not only this, they are kept in the frontline of Kashmiri literature.

During a Mushaira, a question was asked to the famous poet Mahajur, who is your successor. He raised his finger from the stage and pointed to the young man wearing a turtleneck coat among the audience ... He is a young man. He was none other than Dinanath Nadim.

On the occasion of Dinanath Nadim's 70th birthday, in the Abhinandan Grant published by the Jammu and Kashmir National Language Promotion Committee, an eminent critic of Jammu and Kashmir art, culture language, Mohammad Yusuf Theng, wrote in his message that Dinanath is a very great Kashmiri poet.

Not only this, he said that his status in the cultural sector in the twentieth century was similar to that of Sheikh Mohammed Abdullah in the political field. He also credited Nadim for freeing the Kashmiri language from decadent-oriented traditions. Also said that a man like Nadim will not be born for many years.

Dinanath Nadim was born on 18 March 1916 in a lower-middle-class family in Srinagar. His father died in 1922. After this, his mother gave him rites of poetic composition. In an interview, he said that my mother used to recite to me the 'Vakha' of Lalidad and the 'Shrukh' of Nunda Rishi. He made me understand the cultural tradition by reciting poems of Parmanand and Krishna Razdan.

As he reached puberty, Nadim was influenced by the poems of the famous English poet Wordsworth. After this, the morning-e-Watan poem of Urdu poet Pandit Brijnarayan Chakbast agitated him. Please tell that Nadim used to write poems in Urdu initially. On the death of Father of the Nation Mahatma Gandhi, he wrote a poem titled 'From Kalinga to Rajghat'. The Sahitya Akademi Award was given in 1986 for his poetry collection Shihil Kul.
