Abstract
The main objective of this study is to elaborate Habib Jalib’s struggle for masses’ rights and his views about peace in the society. Habib Jalib used his poetry to sensitize people about their social and political rights. His kindling thoughts provided life blood to the poor condition of common man. Another quality of Habib Jalib was that he remains loyal to the people all his life which gained for him the title of “Poet of Masses” (shaair-e awaam). Unlike his contemporary politicians and poets, Jalib never compromised on the ideals of masses rights which he recommended for himself. Habib Jalib views about peace testify his genius and his cosmopolitan outlook. This study will highlight the role of Habib Jalib for masses rights and also point out his views about peace.
