Iconic Poet of Mughal India: Mirza Ghalib
By Monita Soni

Immerse yourself in the poetry of Mirza Ghalib! 
 
His wife had several pregnancies, but none of their seven children survived beyond infancy. The pain of his wife's grief echoes in Ghalib's poetry. We can see him saying this to his wife after losing a child.


Jaan tum par nisaar karta hyun
mai nahi jaanta dua kya hai
Translation 
I can offer you my life
I don't know what other prayer can I make?
