About the Author - Jaun Elia was born in 1931 in Amroha, Uttar Pradesh, into a learned family. His father, Syed Shafiq Hasan Elia, was a poor poet and scholar. Jaun's early education took place in Amroha's madrasas, where he learned Urdu, Arabic, and Persian. He was never interested in textbooks and often failed his exams. As he grew older, he developed an interest in Philosophy. He earned Master's degrees in Urdu, Persian, and Philosophy. He also knew English, Pahlavi, Hebrew, Sanskrit, and French. In his youth, he was drawn to communism. After the partition, his elder brother moved to Pakistan. After the death of his parents, Jaun Elia had to go to Pakistan in 1956, though reluctantly, and throughout his life, he remembered Amroha and India.
Jaun Elia is a great poet not just because his poetry meets the criteria established by centuries-old literary traditions and critical standards, but because the subjects he explored—emotional and psychological conditions of human beings—are unmatched in the tradition of Urdu poetry. His verses on these themes are unique in the realm of Urdu poetry.
