The Bābur-nāma in English (Memoirs of Bābur)

Note 2584 — SECTION III. HINDŪSTĀN (continued 4)

Annette Susannah Beveridge translation

The Ḥai. MS. has wālī, clearly written; which, as a word representing Māhīm would suit the sentence best, may make playful reference to her royal commands (f. 361b), by styling her the Governor (wālī). Erskine read the word as a place-name Dipālī, which I have not found; De Courteille omits Ilminsky’s w:ras (p. 478). The MSS. vary and are uncertain.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
