Poets·Sahir Ludhianvi·Ghazal

Sahir Ludhianvi

matla

na toh zamin ke liye hai na aasman ke liye

tira wajood hai ab daastan ke liye

palat ke soo-e- dekhne se kya hoga

wo shaakh hi na rahi jo thi aashiyan ke liye

gharaz-parast jahan mein wafa talaash na kar

ye shay bani thi kisi doosre jahan ke liye

About the poet

Sahir Ludhianvi

Progressive poet whose bitter romanticism and social conscience reshaped both the nazm and the Hindi film song.
