Abstract

After Khushal Khan Khatak, Ghani Khan is a Famous Pashto poet who has depicted the nature from different perspections and due to his acquantince with western literature, it has taken the form of an objectivereality in in his poetry. However, we should not forget that compared to western literature, the praise of nature is deeply-rooted in eastern literature and particularly, the Pashto folkloure literature is a clear mirror of nature beauty. In Pashto modern poetry, the perception and understanding of nature have become a popular trend nowadays. If Ghani Khan mentioned birds, insects, animals or other natural phenomenonsin his poetry, he solely focusses on these phenomenons as natural and not on the states and situations of the humans with regard to them. Also, he does not use imagination merely for imagination, but tries to depict different states and situations, wanting to blunt the fear of nature by beautifying the phenomenons. Therefore, by reading and listening to Ghani Khan poetry, the lovers of Pashto language, particularly, Pashtuns poets can thrive in depicting, praiseing and better weaving as the nature.
