"पूछते हैं वो के "ग़ालिब" कौन है?"
जितना बतलायें उतना कम है उस अज़ीम शायर के बारे में। फिर भी एक छोटी सी कोशिश है कुछ घंटों में चंद सदियां समेटने की मुट्ठी में आकाश बटोर लेने की या यूं कहें की चचा ग़ालिब के असीम canvas में अपना कोना ढूंढ़ने की!
We all know that decades after the great 'Shayar' departed this material world he lives on in our lives hearts and souls an eternal flame of Urdu Shayari in the world!
Be it leaders in Parliament historians in their lectures or commoners like us - we all can't stop ourselves from reciting Ghalib once in a while knowingly and well unknowingly too!!
