She was a staunch proponent of women's emancipation, civil rights, and anti-imperialistic ideas, playing an important role in India's struggle for independence from colonial rule. Her work as a poet includes both children's poems and others with more mature themes including patriotism, romance, and tragedy, earning her the sobriquet Nightingale of India. Her most famous work is In the Bazaars of Hyderabad (1912), which remains widely read to this day. Other notable works by this author include: The Bird of Time: Songs of Life, Death & the Spring (1912), The Broken Wing - Songs of Love, Death & Destiny (1917), and Muhammad Jinnah: An Ambassador of Unity (1919).
