Mir Amman

Mir Amman (1748–1806) was an employee of Fort William College at Calcutta, variously also known as ''Mir Amman of Delhi'', ''Mir Amman of Dilhi'', ''Mir Amman Dihlavi'', and ''Meer Ummun''.

He was best known for his translation of Amir Khusro's classic epic ''Qissa Chahar Dervish'' (''The Tale of the Four Dervishes'') His translation is considered classic literature itself for its use of contemporary Urdu, and was done on the request of John Borthwick Gilchrist, an English scholar of literature of those days. It in turn was widely translated into English during the 19th century. Provided by Wikipedia
