Nawab Mirza Khan Dagh Dehlavi (1831-1905), was born and brought up in the red fort of Delhi he was the grandson of Bahadur Shah Zafar, after the fall of Delhi in 1857, he had to move to Rampur where he lived in comfort for more than a decade. Later, his changing conditions, took him to other centers of renown like Lucknow, Patna, Calcutta, and Hyderabad. Dagh was a disciple of Zauq and also has a large number of eminent disciples to his own credit, Dagh deliberated upon the aesthetic principles of ghazal as a form of intimate poetic conversation. In its totality, Dagh’s poetry is idiomatic and appealing, laden with emotions and good humour. Apart from his four divaans, representing the last hallmarks of classical poetry, he has left behind a bunch of letters and a long narrative poem.
