Zafar Iqbal: A Unique Poet of Ghazal
Keywords
Zafar Iqbal, Ghazal, Experiences, Change
Abstract

Ghazal is an old form of Persian and Urdu poetry. From Rodki to the latest
Urdu Ghazal writer every poet tried his utmost to express himself in this form. Several
poets throughout the literary history of Persian and Urdu poetry expressed their
uniqueness in their Ghazals. From Meer to Zafar Iqbal many Urdu poets with their
innovative approaches brought healthy changes as far as this form is concerned. Zafar
iqabal with his absurd and sublime meaning patterns expressed in his Ghazals, always
impresses his readers. They flying colours of his thousands of Ghazals through their
strange attractions, have immense appeal for the readers of Urdu poetry. Zafar Iqbal
claims that every Ghazal writer wants to improve his poetry by writing Ghazals. But in
spite of that this form was not attracting the genuine readers. He accepted the
challenge of bringing this form to its toe, by trying to explore the a few more
possibilities of this form.
