Abstract

In this article, Qayyum Nazar’s poems have been reviewed chronically. Nazar, an active member of Halqa e Arbab e Zauq, was a known literary figure during the second half of last century. His contribution to modern poetry is immense. We find diversity of thought and style in his poetry. Alongside his routine literary works, he also composed patriotic songs and childern’s rhymes. In third and fourth decades of last century, although free verse was becoming popular, Qayyum Nazar continued to compose poems in classical style with many varieties. The article concludes that Nazar's poetry accepted the influence of changing social and political milieu. He presented inner self of an individual, but he did not compromise on aesthetics of poetry.
