Chapter 12 : Khwaja Haidar Ali Aatish

Butkhana tod dal diye masjid ko dhaiye
Dil ko na todiye ye khuda ka maqam hai
بتخانہ توڑ ڈالیے مسجد کو ڈھائیے
دل کو نہ توڑیے یہ خدا کا مقام ہے
बुत-ख़ाना तोड़ डालिए मस्जिद को ढाइए
दिल को न तोड़िए ये ख़ुदा का मक़ाम है
Our 12th episode is dedicated to Khwaja Haider Ali Atish .
Aao Mehfi Sajayein
آؤ محفل سجائیں
आओ महफ़िल सजाएं ।
Khwaja Haider Ali Atish, who hailed from a Sufi family in Delhi, was extremely resourceful with the Urdu idiom and played upon the softness of its tone. Striking a balance between the odds and the evens in his poetry, he was now spontaneous now remote, now restrained now sentimental, now ratiocinate now mystical. His sincere sentiments and robust language blended well to create a condition of lasting appeal.
