MOHSIN BHOPALI(1932 – 2007)
Mohsin Bhopali was born at Sohagpur of district Hoshangabad. His father Haji Abdul Razzak was a postmaster at Bhopal. Mohsin sahab spent his childhood at Bhopal and was a student of Hamidia School. His ancestral house was at Chauki Talleya Retghat Bhopal area. Although he migrated to Pakistan with his father during 1947 partitions, he made Bhopal a part of his name. Second sher from his first book became a legend:
Nerangie Siyasatye Dauran To Dekhie,
Manzil Unhe Mili Jo Sharike Safar Na The
Manzil Unhe Mili Jo Sharike Safar Na The
Mohsin Bhopali last came to Bhopal in the year 1985 to participate in a Indo-Pak mushaira. A program was organized in the MLB College during his visit. Bhopal-e prays that may Bhopal be blessed with more people like him.
Ek Muddat Ki Rafaqat Ka Ho Kuch To Inam,
Jate Jate Koi Iljam Lagate Jao
His poetry has a real material and always talks about reality and things around us. His many ghazals are great wth magical ashaars (couplets) in them.
