Shauq chose the arduous path since, he was a critique of the government and the desolated society. In early age, Due to his father's death, his higher education was aborted, Eventually he bound to join small jobs in municipality. But, his mercurial character and predilection towards poetry pulled him from the mess of prosaic life. He began his career by saying 'Ghazals'. Gradually, he enlarged his domain in all other forms poetries. His laconic and audacious writings touched all the socio-economic issues with the shades of sarcasm and satire.

Vilifying the social evils once he wrote:

barbād gulistāñ karne ko bas ek hī ullū kaafī thā

har shāḳh pe ullū baiThā hai anjām-e-gulistāñ kyā hogā

To destroy the garden even one owl was enough
What shall happen to garden when owl is sitting in every branch
