The Bābur-nāma in English (Memoirs of Bābur)

Note 1652 — SECTION III. HINDŪSTĀN

Annette Susannah Beveridge translation

Hindūstāndā daryālārdīn bāshqa, bīr āqār-sū kīm bār (dūr, is added by the Elph. MS.), bū dūr. Perhaps the meaning is that the one (chief?) irrigation stream, apart from great rivers, is the Ghaggar. The bed of the Ghaggar is undefined and the water is consumed for irrigation (G. of I. xx, 33; Index s.n. āqār-sū).

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
