Sad Poetry:

Any Waly Mar Chuky…

Kon Aya Hai, Koi Nahi Aya Pagal…

Tera Hawa K. Jhonky Sy

Darwaza Khul Gya Pagal

Bhoot Qareeb Ati Jaa Rahi Ho,,,

Bichadne Ka Iraada Kar Liya Kia,

Main Bhi Bahut Pagal Hoon…

Itna Ajeeb Hoon K Bas

Khud Ko Tabah Kar Liya

Aur Milal Bhi Nahi.

Jo Guzaari Naa Jaa Saki Hum Se

Hum Ny Wo Zindgi Guzari Hai

People read his poetry in specially organized literary gatherings. Writers write about his poetry. Nevertheless, for some strange reason, everybody has overlooked the crucial fact that Elia was a Marxist poet, and his poetry was profoundly influenced by communist ideals.

Elia quotes:

“Lying is the worst need of life, but sometimes speaking the truth is not a bad thing.”
“Existence is the decline of thought.”
“The word kills the right of ideas.”
“The most remarkable reason for your age is that you do not look who you are.”
“For whomever you know well, have a bad reputation for it.”
