Indian/Pakastani poet Faiz Ahmed Faiz born Feb 13, 1911, died Nov 20,1984
“Faiz’s early poems had been conventional, light-hearted treatises on love and beauty, but while in Lahore he began to expand into politics, community, and the thematic interconnectedness he felt was fundamental in both life and poetry.
Throughout his tumultuous life, Faiz continually wrote and published, becoming the best-selling modern Urdu poet in both India and Pakistan.
Faiz is especially celebrated for his poems in traditional Urdu forms, such as the ghazal, and his remarkable ability to expand the conventional thematic expectations to include political and social issues.
He died in Lahore in 1984, shortly after receiving a nomination for the Nobel Prize.” https://poets.org/poet/faiz-ahmed-faiz
“Although living a simple and restless life, Faiz’s work, political ideology, and poetry became immortal, and he has often been called as one of the “greatest poets” of Pakistan.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faiz_Ahmad_Faiz
