Bashir Badr is among the generation of Urdu poets who made their mark on the literary scene in the decade of 1960s.

Badr, who was born in 1935,  is a prominent Urdu poet hailing from Meerut. He is currently based in Bhopal. Badr is popular due to publication of his poetry in Hindi script.

Read his ghazal:

 इन आंखों से दिन रात बरसात होगी
अगर जिंदगी सर्फ़-ए-जज़्बात होगी

मुसाफिर हो तुम भी, मुसाफिर हैं हम भी
किसी मोड़ पर फिर मुलाक़ात होगी


सदाओं को अल्फाज़ मिलने न पायें
न बादल घिरेंगे न बरसात होगी

चिरागों को आंखों में महफूज़ रखना
बड़ी दूर तक रात ही रात होगी

अज़ल-ता-अब्द तक सफर ही सफर है
कहीं सुबह होगी कहीं रात होगी

बशीर बद्र

Now read in Roman script:

in aaNkhoN se din raat barsaat hogii
agar zindagii sarf-e-jazbaat hogii

musaafir ho tum bhii, musaafar haiN ham bhii
kisii moD par phir mulaaqaat hogii

sadaaoN ko alfaaz milne na paayeN
na baadal ghireNge na barsaat hogii

chiraaGoN ko aaNkhoN meN mahfuuz rakhnaa
baDii duur tak raat hii raat hogii

azal taa abd tak safar hii safar hai
kahiiN subah hogii kahiiN raat hogii

Bashir Badr
