The stories of human-animal love are not too rare. Here is an atypical story of love between a queen
and a peacock told by no less a master craftsman than Meer Taqi Meer (1723-1810).
This verse- narrative known as More Naama has survived through two centuries
and has been acknowledged as an exemplar of Meer’s skill of telling a tale in a poetical framework which is allegorical in nature and far reaching in appeal
