Assadullah Beg Khan Ghalib or Mirza Ghalib, the poet of the beautiful language Urdu is known for his beautiful couplets and shayari. He was one who could add magic to the words. Love in his words could reach the height of imagination and madness. We are blessed that such a poet born in our country.
So, Here I have shortlisted 1O couplets which prove that there’s simply no one like Ghalib:

Tu dekh key kya rangg hai tera meray aagay.
3.

To naksh dil kay ubharr gayay,

Woh nazarr jhukaa kar chalay gayay.
