ہوگا کوئی ایسا بھی کہ غالبؔ کو نہ جانے
شاعر تو وہ اچھا ہے پہ بدنام بہت ہے
होगा कोई ऐसा भी कि ‘ग़ालिब’ को न जाने
शाइर तो वो अच्छा है प बदनाम बहुत है
hogaa ko.ii aisaa bhii ki ‘Ghaalib’ ko na jaane
shaa.ir to vo achchhaa hai pa badnaam bahut hai

(Is there someone who doesn’t know Ghalib?
He maybe a good poet, but he is very infamous)
