Deeply saddened by the passing of the legendary Urdu poet, Dr. Bashir Badr Sahab (1935–2026). His words gave a voice to the common man, and his simpler style revolutionized modern poetry.
His timeless lines on human loss remain unforgettable:
"Log toot jaate hain ek ghar banane mein,
Tum taras nahi khaate bastiyan jalane mein."
(People shatter completely just to build a single home, yet you show no mercy while torching down entire neighborhoods.)
Rest in peace, Maestro. Your light lives on through your ghazals. 💔🕊️ #BashirBadr
