    The nazm 'bakaavali ki talaash' is a fragment out of the long masnavi 'gulzar-e-naseem.' It is not possible to present the entire masnavi here so we are presenting the story of the masnavi. This masnavi has a very complex storyline but the reason that this masnavi is considered the best in Urdu is because of its use of language. The language is representative of dabistan-e-lucknow.
