Panna Laal Noor Biography

Panna Lal Noor was an Urdu poet born in 1925 in Indore. He wrote in the common Urdu poetic forms, especially ghazal and couplet. His poems are known for their emotional expressiveness, reflections on loss, beauty, longing and themes of existential unrest.

He published at least two books during his lifetime: Lakh Rupaya Ka Photo and Soo-e-Ghazal. His body of work includes around twenty ghazals and several couplets, collected in e-books and recited in literary circles.

His style tends toward lyrical simplicity, with attention to melody in sound, evocative imagery, and a tone often tinged with melancholy. He explores personal feelings and often addresses life’s passing moments, separation, yearning.

Panna Lal Noor died in 1972. Though not as widely known as some major Urdu poets, his work continues to be read in Urdu poetry websites and appreciated by lovers of ghazal and classic Urdu verse for its sincerity and tone.
