Khawar Rizvi

Khawar Rizvi (1 June 1938 – 15 November 1981), was a renowned poet, and scholar of Urdu and Persian. Born as Syed Sibte Hassan Rizvi, he chose to adopt the pen name "Khawar," which signifies "the East" in the Persian language, for the purpose of composing his poetry and essays. Highly reverent and captivated by the east, its way of life, and its inherent principles, Rizvi's profound affection for this region was unyielding.
