5 reasons why you are Mirza Ghalib:
Aapko neend raat bhar nahi aati.
(maut ka ek din muayyan hai,niind kyu raat bhar nahi aati)
Har kisi se Wafa ki ummeed rakhte ho.
(ham ko un se wafa ki hai ummeed,jo nahi jante wafa kya hai)
Aapko ishq ne niqamma kar diya hai.
(ishq ne 'ghalib' nikamma kar diya varna ham bhi aadmi the kaam ke.)
Junoon mai kuch bhi bakte rehte ho.
(bak raha hu junoon me kya-kya,kuchh na samjhe khuda kare koi)
Sab se tawaqqo uth gayi hai.
(jab tavaqqo hi uth gayi 'ghalib',kyu kisi ka gila kare koi)

pov : your grief is beloved to you.
"mere gham bohot azeez hain mujhe,
maine inke inaam mein imaan paya hai"
my sorrows are very dear to me, i have found faith in their reward.

But in urdu Someone said,

We often hear people saying that:
He/She is not written for me.
But someone poured my heart into words when they wrote:
Yun bhi ho sakta hai ke kisi parinday ko kisi machli se muhabbat ho jaye lekin museebat ye hai ke jaa kr rahen tou kahan rahen?
Kuch aesa hi un logon ke sath hota hai jo aesi cheezon ya insano ki chahat kar beth'ty hain jo un ke liye bani hi nhi hoti. Phir aakhir mai aik ko ur jana hota hai or dusry ko gamon ke samandar mai garq hona parta hai.
