The Taj, a history?

Is the Taj Mahal a history or a heritage?

History is the narration of events –

Events of successes and victories.

Heritage is the preservation of things-

Things of pride, value and attachments.

Heritage overrides history in making.

A heritage is a part of history,

And stands for value and not for events.

Who made it dissolves in how it was made.

A heritage to the people is akin

To a child to its mother, irrespective

Of who, a king or a pauper. Fathered it.

The Taj is born to India, a heritage.
