[{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1514012067007","data":" In the dying days of the Mughal Empire, there lived a man named Mirza Asadullah Baig Khan. He was a quiet, unassuming man, born in Agra in the year 1797, on December 27th in fact, who would go on to adopt the pen name Ghalib, a calling card of sorts to hide his own identity and to put himself in someone else's shoes and write, and as fate would have it, become one of the most renowned Urdu and Persian poets of all time. Even to this day, his poems about life, love, loss, deceit and pain resonate across millions of lives, especially those kids who share his Shayaris on social media pretending to understand what it means (including yours truly).<\/p>The reason I decided to put his 10 best Shayaris in this article is because I want students to read his work and realise just how much they can relate life's simple struggles to his words even hundreds of years later. It truly is a bizarre thing to experience the feeling that despite the social inequalities and shifting of privileges that happened over a period of time, the problems that humans face are the same, the causes change of course, but the pain remains the same. <\/p>Ghalib's work is now a national treasure, his works preserved, his memory honoured. He truly was one of the brightest literary gems from the subcontinent, so without further ado, here are 10 of his Shayaris, in their original form. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1514012295870","data":"5a3e0231f0da0"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1514012291491","data":"1.
