Abstract
Sachal Sarmast is among those classical Sindhi poets who introduced
a unique form of Sindhi ghazals even prior to Khalifo gul. Before Sachal's contribution, there was no progress in Sindhi art and thought, though the art of
Sindhi ghazal writing was already in vogue. After Noor Mohammad Khasta,
only Sachal Sarmast can be termed as first key poet of Sindhi ghazal. He
broadened Sindhi ghazal in terms of its art and thought. Sachal brought Sindhi
ghazal nearer to Kaafi (a form of Sindhi poetry) through his artistic experience
and introduced smoothness in it by changing internal rhymes. He gave Sindhi
ghazal a new diction and at times bought forth a complete new style of
ghazals and coloured it with the theme of Kaafi. Sachal blessed Sindhi ghazal
with the dialogue form. His ghazals cover a wide range of topics including oneness of God, divine love, allegorical and metaphorical love. As a matter of fact,
Sachal had actually explained the characteristic features of Sindhi ghazal even
prior to Khalifo Gul.
