Khwaja Ghulam Farid Korejo (Urdu: {{Nastaliq|خواجہ غُلام فرید کوریجو}}) or Khwaja Farid (1845–1901) was a 19th-century Punjabi[1] Sufi poet of the Indian subcontinent. He was a scholar and writer who knew several different languages. He belonged to Chishti–Nizami Sufi order. He was born in and died at Chachran town and was buried at Mithankot, Punjab, Pakistan.

Early life and career

His mother died when he was four years old and he was orphaned around the age of twelve when his father, Khwaja Khuda Bakhsh, died. He was then brought up by his elder brother, Khwaja Fakhr-ud-Din, and grew up to become a scholar and writer. He mastered Arabic, Persian, Urdu, Punjabi, Saraiki, Sindhi, and Braj Bhasha, and also wrote poems in Punjabi, Urdu, Sindhi, Persian, and Braj Bhasha languages.

Nawab Sadeq Mohammad Khan V of Bahawalpur took Khwaja Farid to his palace at Ahmad pur sharkia for his religious education by a scholar, when he was 8 years old. His elder brother Khwaja Fakhr-ud-Din who had brought him up after his parents' deaths, also died when Khwaja Ghulam Farid was 28 years old. Khwaja Farid then left for Rohi area or Cholistan Desert and lived 18 years there.

Khwaja Ghulam Farid Korejo performed Hajj, Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca, in 1876.

Works

His most significant works include:

  • Deewan-e-Farid (poem collection in Multani, 1882; in Punjabi, 1883 ; in Urdu, 1884); Khwaja Farid composed as many as 272 poems of high literary merit.[2]
  • Manaqabe Mehboobia (in Persian prose)
  • Fawaid Faridia (in Persian prose)

In his poetry, he frequently uses the symbolism of a desert. Sometimes he touched the topic of political affairs, opposing the British rule in Bahawalpur state.
