Poetry On Life | Firaq Gorakhpuri I Rekhta

This video brings together 10 of Firaq Gorakhpuri’s most luminous sher, curated from Rekhta, where love is not just emotion, but intellect, beauty, and lived experience.

Firaq’s voice is distinct. He writes with softness, but never with weakness. His poetry carries romance, longing, and sensuality, yet it also carries a thinker’s depth, as if every feeling must pass through reflection before it becomes a line. These sher are chosen for that balance: tenderness with sharp perception.
