Ghalib-Faraz-Iqbal

Ghalib-Iqbal-Faraz!
Have you read the message from the east?
Iqbal is Called universal but here,
Insist to call him poet of east!
Do you know who said about purity?
By mere deed it can never be achieved!
If so, then these are even known by Satan.
He knows enough tricks to misdeed...

Do you know who said that he saw?
HIS presence in pagan’s heart, 
But the poor soul is unaware!

Moral soul of our culture is kept alive,
Truly by these writings, they revive!

These writing versions so emote,
Our cultural values since birth float,
In-between Iqbal, Faraz and Ghalib,
Their literature quite candid! 
And our culture is merely aided
By the projection of these commended!

Very Nice and Well controlled in rhyme scheme and pattern, The flow and tone is good, usage of famous poets names turn this piece more lively and vital. I have studied as a subject ,I found both of these poets (Iqbal.Ghalib) tremendous ,I have no words to utter in respect of these personas.
