Shiv Kumar Batalvi,

Shiv Kumar Batalvi,

What an amazing person and poetry. The whole Punjab dances in his words. The Chenab and Jehlum are cystals of rainbow in his verses. The pain and landscape of the dharti is flowing unstoppable.....what a genius explorer of emotions! Punjab is incomplete with him!

unending glory of creator...the pathos and reality of pain!

He has magic in his reach and mesmerizes the listener. He takes it from the highest form of language and was a poet and his early death shows that how he consumed himself to produce the words. His DUKHANAT....and his analogy of slow suicide....what a potent words. You can not escape from the charm and depth of his art. the control of language and its relation with the Punjab's environment (the physical and intellectual) is the epitome of an era, he is zeitgeist of modern Punjab with unbroken chain of a flowing life.
