Hamza Baba is the affectionate name for Amir Hamza Shinwari (born 1907 in Landi Kotal, Khyber). He wrote first in Urdu, then turned to Pashto poetry and became known for ghazal and romantic verse. Many readers treat him as a central voice of twentieth-century Pashto ghazal because he kept classical form while using language that still sounds direct on the tongue.
He was also a critic, playwright, and radio writer, with many dramas aired on Radio Pakistan. The posts in this category show his lines in Pashto script and Roman spelling, from two-line shairy to longer love poems.
