Faiz-Ahmed-Faiz [1911-1984]​



Faiz Ahmed Faiz
Faiz Ahmed Faiz was born on February 13, 1911, in Sialkot, India, which is now part of Pakistan. He had a privileged childhood as the son of wealthy landowners Sultan Fatima and Sultan Muhammad Khan, who passed away in 1913, shortly after his birth. His father was a prominent lawyer and a member of an elite literary circle which included Allama Iqbal, the national poet of Pakistan.

In 1916, Faiz entered Moulvi Ibrahim Sialkoti, a famous regional school, and was later admitted to the Skotch Mission High School where he studied Urdu, Persian, and Arabic. He received a Bachelor's degree in Arabic, followed by a master's degree in English, from the Government College in Lahore in 1932, and later received a second master's degree in Arabic from the Oriental College in Lahore.After graduating in 1935, Faiz began a teaching career at M.A.O. College in Amritsar and then at Hailey College of Commerce in Lahore.

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. It was also during this period that he married Alys George, a British expatriate and convert to Islam, with whom he had two daughters. In 1942, he left teaching to join the British Indian Army, for which he received a British Empire Medal for his service during World War II. After the partition of India in 1947, Faiz resigned from the army and became the editor of The Pakistan Times, a socialist English-language newspaper.

On March 9, 1951, Faiz was arrested with a group of army officers under the Safety Act, and charged with the failed coup attempt that became known as the Rawalpindi Conspiracy Case. He was sentenced to death and spent four years in prison before being released. Two of his poetry collections, Dast-e Saba and Zindan Namah, focus on life in prison, which he considered an opportunity to see the world in a new way. While living in Pakistan after his release, Faiz was appointed to the National Council of the Arts by Zulfikar Ali Bhutto's government, and his poems, which had previously been translated into Russian, earned him the Lenin Peace Prize in 1963.

In 1964, Faiz settled in Karachi and was appointed principal of Abdullah Haroon College, while also working as an editor and writer for several distinguished magazines and newspapers. He worked in an honorary capacity for the Department of Information during the 1965 war between India and Pakistan, and wrote stark poems of outrage over the bloodshed between Pakistan, India, and what later became Bangladesh. However, when Bhutto was overthrown by Zia Ul-Haq, Faiz was forced into exile in Beirut, Lebanon. There he edited the magazine Lotus, and continued to write poems in Urdu. He remained in exile until 1982. He died in Lahore in 1984, shortly after receiving a nomination for the Nobel Prize.

Throughout his tumultuous life, Faiz continually wrote and published, becoming the best-selling modern Urdu poet in both India and Pakistan. While his work is written in fairly strict diction, his poems maintain a casual, conversational tone, creating tension between the elite and the common, somewhat in the tradition of Ghalib, the reknowned 19th century Urdu poet. 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. ​



bol k lab azad hain tere
bol,zaban ab tak teri hai

tera sutwanjism hai tera
bol k jan ab tak teri hai

dekh k ahangur ki dukan mein
tund hain shoalay,surkh hai ahan

khulne lage khuflon k dahane
phela har ik zanjeer ka daman

jism-o-zaban ki mout se pehle
bol.k sach zinda hai ab tak

bol,jo kuch kehna hai keh le
sahal yun rah-e-zindagi ki hai

her kadam hum ne ashiqi hai
hum ne saja dil mein liye gulshan

jab baharon ne berukhi ki hai
zehar se dhoo liye hain hont apne

lutf-e-saqi ne jab kami ki hai
tere koche mein badshahi ki

jab se nikle gadagari ki hai
bus wohi surkhro hoa jis ne

behr-e-khoon mein shanawari ki hai
jo guzarte hte daag per sadmein

ab wohi kaifiat sabhi ki hai

Guloon mien Rang Bharay Bad-e-Nobahar Chalay
Chalay b aao Kay Gulshan ka Karobaar chalay

Qafas Udaas hai Yaaro !! Saba Se Kuch Tou Kaho
Kahien Tou Behr-e-Khuda Aaj Zikr-e-Yaar Chalay

Jo Hum Pay Guzri So Guzri Magar Shab-e-Hijraan
Humare Ashk Teri Aqbat sanwaar chalay

Muqaam Faiz koi Raah Mien Jacha hee Nahi
Jo koy-e-Yaar Se Nikle Tou Soy-e-Daar Chalay

-------------------------------------------------​

yeh saaghar sheeshey laal-o guhar
saabit hon to qeemat paatey hain
yun tukrey tukrey hon to faqat
chubhtey hain lahoo rulwaatey hain
tum nahaq tukrey chun chun kar
daaman mein chupaaye bethey ho
sheeshon ka maseeha koi nahi
kya aas lagaye bethey ho
