Re: Your favourite poet
In keeping with the conventions of the classical ghazal, in most of Ghalib's verses, the identity and the gender of the beloved is indeterminate. The critic/poet/writer Shamsur Rahman Faruqui explains that the convention of having the "idea" of a lover or beloved instead of an actual lover/beloved freed the poet-protagonist-lover from the demands of realism. Love poetry in Urdu from the last quarter of the seventeenth century onwards consists mostly of "poems about love" and not "love poems" in the Western sense of the term.
The first complete English translation of Ghalib's ghazals was written by Sarfaraz K. Niazi and published by Rupa & Co in India and Ferozsons in Pakistan. The title of this book is Love Sonnets of Ghalib and it contains complete Roman transliteration, explication and an extensive lexicon.
Ghalib was a very liberal mystic who believed that the search for God within liberated the seeker from the narrowly Orthodox Islam, encouraging the devotee to look beyond the letter of the law to its narrow essence. His Sufi views and mysticism is greatly reflected in his poems and ghazals. As he once stated:
“The object of my worship lies beyond perception's reach;
For men who see, the Ka'aba is a compass, nothing more."

آ ! کہ میری جان کو قرار نہیں ہے
'طاقت بیدارِ انتظار' نہیں ہے
دیتے ہیں جنّت، حیاتِ دہر کے بدلے
نشہ 'بہ اندازۃ خمار نہیں ہے
گِریہ نکالے ہے تیری بزم سے مجھ کو
ہے! کہ رونے پی اختیار نہیں ہے
ہم سے عبث ہے گمانِ رنجش خاطر
خاک میں عشاق کی غبار نہیں ہے
دل سے اٹھا لطف جلوہ ہے معانی
غیر گُل آئینہء بہار نہیں ہے
قتل کا میرے کیا ہے عہد تو بارے
واے! اگر عہدِ استوار نہیں ہے
تو نے قسم مے کشی کی کھائی ہے 'غالب
تیری قسم کا کچھ اعتبار نہیں ہے

Re: Your favourite poet
one of the best poem
Re: Your favourite poet
Kisi gham gusaar kee mehnaton ka yeh khoob main ne silaa diya
Kay jo mere gham main ghula kia usay main nay dil se bhula dia
Jo jamaal e rooh e hayaat tha, Jo daleel e raah e nijaat tha
Usi raah-ber k naqoosh e paa ko musaafiron nay mita dia
Main tere mazaar kee jalion hee ki midhaton main magan raha
Tere dushmanon ne tere chaman main khizaan ka jaal bichha diya
Tere husn e khulq ki ik ramaq meri zindagi main na mil saki
Main isi main khush hoon kay shehr kay dar o baam ko to saja diya
Tere saur o badr kay baab kay main waraq ulat kay guzar gya
Mujhay sirf teri hikayaton kee riwayaton nay maza dia
Yeh meri aqeedat e bay basar Yeh meri riyazat e bay hunar
Mujhay mere daawa e ishq nay na sanam diya na khuda dia
Tera naqsh e paa tha jo raah numa, to ghubaar e raah thee kehkashan
Isay kho dia to zamanay bhar nay humain nazar se gira dia
Kabhi aay inaayat e kam nazar, tere dil main yeh bhi kasak hui
Jo tabassum e rukh e zeest tha, usay tere gham nay rula dia
(By Inayat ullah Khan)
Inayat ullah Khan is otherwise famous for his mazahiya shayari, but this naat is his best work IMO.

Iftikhar Arif and Parveen Shakir were not in good terms. One was magroor for his TV appearances and other one had bureaucracy backing. But I would go with Parveen Shakir though I don't like bureaucrats.
