Following is the glorification of Lord Shiva written by Ali Mardan Khan who was a Kurdish and served as Governor of Kashmir twice during Mughal Rule. Owing to his experiences during his 1st term in Kashmir, he became a transformed person. It is said during his 2nd term he had become very spiritual and Lord Shiva gave him Darshan. And this glorification in Persian is a description of that Divine Vision.
