sherKuch Alfaaz

'ghhalib' apna ye aqida hai ba-qaul-e-'nasikh' aap be-bahra hai jo mo'taqid-e-'mir' nahin the couplet declares an aesthetic creed: real poetic taste is measured by devotion to mir. by invoking nasikh as a supporting authority, ghalib turns a personal opinion into a ‘shared verdict.’ the sting lies in calling mir’s non-admirers “deprived,” mixing literary rivalry with playful, cutting wit.
