Mir plunged into deep mourning and said a couplet on this incident which is not even found in his kulliyat or any hand written books. ab aayaa dhiyaan ae aaraam-e-jaa.n is na-muraadii me.n kafan dena tumhe.n bhuule the ham asbaab-e-shaadii me.n The description of the daughter of Mir is found in different books, who used 'begam' as her pen name and supposed to be the sister of Kallu Arsh. Mir second marriage took place in Lucknow. (Reference : Diivaan-e-Arsh, Author: M.Habeeb Khan, printed Urdu Hindu organization development, Published 1987) 1. The couplets of 'Begam' have been taken from Diivaan-e-arsh which is compiled by M.Habeeb Khan. According to Habeeb Khan, the same sher is mentioned in Prof Khwaja Ahmad Farooqi's article titled 'Mir, Life and Poetry. As we do not know the complete name of Mir's daughter, however she was born in Lucknow hence a suffix lakhnavi has been used with her name. 2. The couplet exhibts pure lakhnavi temperament. Mir couldn't have said such kind of sher as it doesn't coincide his writing style.
