But I believe you got the meanings, if not, it is as follows:

You are not the only master of Urdu, Ghalib
They say, there also was a man named Mir
I did get the jist...just that got confused at
agley zamaaney
I understood that as future ...aglay anaay wala....and hence the confusion in the 2nd line....how is aglay zamaaney become past?

In old Urdu, 'Agla' translates into 'past'.

Agley waqton key log - People of the past.
 
Sorry If you took it this way, I didn't try to troll you .... You among others, are those members I like to read.

Another from Mir Saheb:

Door kar khat ko kiya chehra kitaabi unnen saaf
Ab qayamat hai key saarey harf Qur’an sey gaye


Can you understand?
 
not really.....but chehra kitaabi was in some song I think.... :ashamed:
OK, thats kind of sarcastic stuff from Mir Saheb. It says:

He chose to remove the beard (khat) that he had
Now I look at his face, and can’t really see the words of Qur’an

Actually in Mir's time, Muslim men would normally sport beard and clean-shaved Muslims were uncommon sighting and it was considered uncultured and un-Islamic. So it seems that Mir Saheb got to see some shaved Muslim and he said the above words.
 
yaap ....
It is sad to see that people who can understand Urdu poetry are vanishing fast. It is even more sad that we know little about Ghalib and Iqbal but almost nothing about Zouq and Mir.

Paida kahan hein aisey paraganda taba' log
Afsos tum ko Mir sey sohbat naihn rahi
