-- known to posterity as Ghalib, a `nom de plume' he adopted in the tradition of all classical Urdu poets, was born in the city of Agra, of parents with Turkish aristocratic ancestry, probably on December 27th, 1797. As to the precise date, Imtiyaz Ali Arshi has conjectured, on the basis of Ghalib's horoscope, that the poet might have been born a month later, in January 1798.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;!--&lt;br /&gt;google_ad_client = "pub-0456457683189039";&lt;br /&gt;google_ad_width = 336;&lt;br /&gt;google_ad_height = 280;&lt;br /&gt;google_ad_format = "336x280_as";&lt;br /&gt;google_ad_type = "text_image";&lt;br /&gt;google_ad_channel = "";&lt;br /&gt;google_color_border = "395A69";&lt;br /&gt;google_color_bg = "395A69";&lt;br /&gt;google_color_link = "6B95A8";&lt;br /&gt;google_color_text = "6B95A8";&lt;br /&gt;google_color_url = "6B95A8";&lt;br /&gt;//--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&lt;br /&gt;  src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The death of his father and uncle during his youth left Ghalib with no male-dominant figures. He then moved to Delhi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ghalib's early education has always been a matter of confusion. There are no known records of his formal education, although it was known that his circle of friends in Delhi were some of the most intelligent minds of the time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Around 1810, he was married into a family of nobles, at the age of thirteen. He had seven children, none of whom survived (this pain has found its echo in some of Ghalib's ghazals). There are conflicting reports regarding his relationship with his wife. She was considered to be pious, conservative and God-fearing while Ghalib was carefree, unconventional without any scruples, and arguably not very religious, in the strict sense of the word.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ghalib was very fond of drinking and gambling (in this respect, he himself admitted he was not quite a strict "Muslim"). Gambling used to be an offence in Delhi at that time and he was even apprehended once for having indulged in it in his own backyard. Ghalib also had an affair with a courtesan who quite admired his poetry. There still exists the First Information Report filed against Ghalib in Kotwali ( "Police Station" is a more convenient term in modern (English) language), Daryaganj, New Delhi that relates his rivalry with the then Kotwal when it came to the courtesan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;!--&lt;br /&gt;google_ad_client = "pub-0456457683189039";&lt;br /&gt;google_ad_width = 336;&lt;br /&gt;google_ad_height = 280;&lt;br /&gt;google_ad_format = "336x280_as";&lt;br /&gt;google_ad_type = "text_image";&lt;br /&gt;google_ad_channel = "";&lt;br /&gt;google_color_border = "395A69";&lt;br /&gt;google_color_bg = "395A69";&lt;br /&gt;google_color_link = "6B95A8";&lt;br /&gt;google_color_text = "6B95A8";&lt;br /&gt;google_color_url = "6B95A8";&lt;br /&gt;//--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&lt;br /&gt;  src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ghalib never worked as such for a livelihood but lived on either state patronage, credit or generosity of his friends. His fame came to him posthumously. He had himself remarked during his lifetime that although his age ignored his greatness, it would be recognized by later generations. History has vindicated his claim. He also is arguably the most "written about" among Urdu poets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He died in Delhi on February 15th, 1869.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.raidious.com/"&gt;Interactive Agency&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sportevents.com/masters-packages-and-tickets"&gt;Augusta Hotels&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.vending.com"&gt;Vending Machines&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/325036951264073592-4499998584570441924?l=mirza-ghalib-sher.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mirza-ghalib-sher.blogspot.com/feeds/4499998584570441924/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=325036951264073592&amp;postID=4499998584570441924' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/325036951264073592/posts/default/4499998584570441924'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/325036951264073592/posts/default/4499998584570441924'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mirza-ghalib-sher.blogspot.com/2007/09/mirza-galib-life.html' title='Mirza Galib : Life'/><author><name>Sonika Soni</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06016606767627061630</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-325036951264073592.post-1616489431232560567</id><published>2007-09-29T00:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-12-02T23:11:07.328-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Mirza Galib : History</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_poEjqV3BcCI/Rv34tZufDpI/AAAAAAAAAHA/2-N7xGrZOHo/s1600-h/175px-Ghalib.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_poEjqV3BcCI/Rv34tZufDpI/AAAAAAAAAHA/2-N7xGrZOHo/s400/175px-Ghalib.gif" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5115518210646412946" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Mirza Asadullah Baig Khan&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; (Urdu/Persian: مرزا اسد اللہ خان ), pen-name Ghalib (Urdu/Persian: غالب, ġhālib) and Asad (former pen-name)(27 December 1796 — 15 February 1869), was an all time great classical Urdu and Persian poet of the subcontinent. Most notably, he wrote several ghazals during his life, which have since been interpreted and sung in many different ways by different people.
