BELOVED IMAGINATION IN HASRAT MOHANI'S GHAZAL

Abstract

The greatest achievement of his ghazal of Hasrat Mohani is that at the time when there were talks of cutting the neck of ghazal and Urdu Natam was increasing its influence in the field of poetry. Hasrat,s ghazal gave new energy to Urdu. Thus, the ghazal could stand against the poem. As far as Hasrat Mohani's getting favors from the teachers of the two primary schools i.e. Delhi and Lucknow is concerned, he has many poems in which the virtues of the Delhi primary school seem to show themselves and there are also many poems which The characteristics of Lucknow Dabistan seem to be felt in me, but it should be remembered that this is only in the context of his love poetry
