My tribute to Makhdoom Mohiuddin, an Urdu poet and Marxist political activist of India. He was a revolutionary Urdu poet. He founded the Progressive Writers Union in Hyderabad and was active with the Comrades Association and the Communist Party of India, and at the forefront of the 1946–1947 Telangana Rebellion.
Known as Shayar-e-Inquilab ('Poet of the Revolution') his ghazals and lyrics have been used in many Hindi films. Among his notable are the romantic ghazals: Aap Ki Yaad Aati Rahi Raat Bhar and Phir Chhidi Raat. One of which, I tried in my way.
