Employing a qualitative textual analysis approach, it explores how their chosen poems further detail such multifaceted aspects of resistance and oppression, identity and change. Faiz’s revolutionary optimism, Shakir’s feminism, and Jalib’s rebel poetry are a testament of Pakistan’s history of political change, gender disadvantage and collective struggle. The study also suggest themes of freedom, justice and stand, stressing that Language and Literature indeed leads to transformation. By historicizing Urdu Poetry, the study emphasizes the continued relevance of poetry in the function of socio-political transformation.
