This book contains a select ion from the poems of Shad Azeemabadi who was responsible firstly for the revival of Urdu ghazal, and secondly for giving an ideological basis to the Urdu elegy. In Shad, the creative impulse was stronger than critical insight. Shad wrote of requited love in a more respectable setting. The lyrical abandon found in his poems is yet to be equalled.
