Book excerpt: Currently spoken by almost 250 million people in Pakistan and India and the second most widely spoken language in Britain, Urdu has one of the richest literatures of all south Asian languages. The modern Urdu poets presented in this book offer a fascinating range of forms and styles that grew out of that tradition, as well as a complex commentary on the experience--personal, religious, cultural, political--of the issues and dilemmas of the twentieth century. In his introduction, M. A. R. Habib outlines the history of Urdu literature, identifies the major poets associated with the classical tradition, discusses some Western influences, and describes the formal genres of the poetry (the qasida, the masnavi, and the marisiya forms of the longer poems; the qit'a, the rubai, and the ghazal forms of the shorter poems). Together, the commentary and the poems in this volume provide an informed introduction to major modern trends in Urdu poetry.

It is composed in metres called ruba'i metres. Each ruba'i is a separate poem in itself and should not be regarded as a part of a long poem as was created by FitzGerald when he translated those he attributed to Omar Khayyam. Its origin is in Persia The ruba'i should be eloquent, spontaneous and ingenious. In the ruba'i the first three lines serve as an introduction to the fourth that should be sublime, subtle or pithy and clever. Urdu poetry is one of the most dominant and prominent poetries of times and has many different colours & types. It has generated its root from Arabic but mainly from Persian and is an important part of Indian & Pakistani Culture. What is the essential belief and philosophy of the Sufi and Dervish Masters and Poets? To put it as simply as possibly...
