Abstract

In Sub-continent, it was a common perception that with the downfall of "Mughal Dynasty" in 1857 A.D, Persian language vanished totally and replaced by English language. Though English language became official language but before it for thousands of years the land of Sub-continent have been fertilized and watered by Persian thought and art and Persian enjoyed the status of official, legal and cultural language of this area. A remarkable asset of Persian poetry can be seen in 20th century. Almost all contemporary Pakistani Persian poets have followed Sa'adi, Rumi, Hafiz and Jami etc and paid homage to these great poets.
