होली
जब खेली होली नंद ललन हँस हँस नंदगाँव बसैयन में।
नर नारी को आनंद हुए खुशवक्ती छोरी छैयन में।।
कुछ भीड़ हुई उन गलियों में कुछ लोग ठट्ट अटैयन में ।
खुशहाली झमकी चार तरफ कुछ घर-घर कुछ चौपय्यन में।।
डफ बाजे राग और रंग हुए, होली खेलन की झमकैयन में।
गुलशोर गुलाल और रंग पड़े, हुई धूम कदम की छैयन में।।

Nazeer Akbarabadi (real name “Wali Muhammad”) was an Indian poet of 18th century who wrote Urdu ghazals and nazms under nom de plume “Nazeer”. His father was Muhammad Farooq and his mother was the daughter of Nawab Sultan Khan who was the governor of Agra Fort. Agra, the Indian city, was known as Akbarabad after Mughal emperor Akbar at that time.
Nazeer’s date of birth is not certain but most of his biographers believe that he was born in Delhi (then called “Dihli”) in 1735 AD. The period of his birth coincided with the decline of the Mughal empire in India.
In 1739 Nazeer was still a child when Nadir Shah attacked Delhi and Muhammad Shah Rangeela was arrested. He was later released but countless people were mercilessly killed in Delhi. The horrors of this plunder were still fresh in the minds of people when 18 years later, in 1757 AD, Ahmad Shah Abdali attacked Delhi. People left Delhi for safer cities. Nazeer along with his mother and grandmother also abandoned Delhi and migrated to Akbarabad. At this time Nazeer was 22 years old.
It is said that Nazeer’s poetic treasure consisted of about 200,000 verses but unfortunately a bigger portion of it is destroyed and only 6000 verses are available in printed form. No other Urdu poet used as many words as Nazeer did. Nazeer’s poetry conveyed the plight of the common people in their own everyday language and was very popular among the masses. It was due to this lack of the “elite” element perhaps that Nazir’s genius was not recognized until much later.
But in spite of this neglect, some of his poetic treasure is still available and some of his poems, such as Banjara Nama (chronicle of a nomad/gypsy), Kaljug nahin karjug hai yeh, Aadmi Naama (chronicle of man), etc., became immortal. Such poems find their place in school text books and discerning fans of Urdu poetry will not fail to recognize the greatness of Nazeer’s verse.
His poetic treasure has some immortal poems like “Banjara Nama”, “Kaljug nahin karjug hai yeh”, “Aadmi Naama” (Chronicle of man) etc. These poems are also in school text books and anticipating fans of Urdu poetry will not fail to recognize the glory of Nazeer’s verse. He was purely a people’s poet and his nazams reflects various aspects of daily life of his era. He wrote on all types of religious and social events with all minor details in which common people can be seen laughing, singing, teasing and playing. He wrote nazams on various social festivals like “Diwali, Holi, Eid, Shab-e-baraat” and about animals, birds, seasons and even on inanimate objects like “paisa, rupaiaa, rotiyaan, aata-daal (flour and lentils), pankha (fan), and kakrhi (a kind of cucumber)”.
He also wrote nazams about different aspects of human life like “muflisi” (Poverty) and “kohrinamah” (Chronicle of leper). Nazeer Akbarabadi died in 1830 AD at the age of 98.
