Maahlaqaa Chanda
kulliyaat-e-Maahlaqaa Chanda, 1766 AD(?) - 1824 [1240 AH]:
Notes:
1. This may be a collection of the surviving work of Maahlaqaa Chanda
2. *Though she is generally considered the first female Urdu poetess who had her poetry published, recent research suggests that Lutfunnisa Imtiyaz was the first Sahib-e-Diwan woman poet of Urdu. Her collection was published in 1212 Hijri, just a year before Mahlaqa. However, her husband who was an accomplished poet and wrote an important book on the early poets, didn't include his wife's poetry.
3. This prominent poetess of Deccan also penned ghazals in Persian but most of her works in Persian was lost. However, a copy of her Urdu divan that has 125 ghazals, which was compiled and calligraphed by herself is preserved in the British museum in London.

Mufti Sadruddin 'Aazurda'
Surviving Poetic work of 'Aazurda':
NOTES:
Mufti Sadruddin 'Aazurda' was a close friend of Ghalib and a very well respected poet, judge and citizen of society. Unfortunately, all of his poetry was destroyed in the riots and destruction of the time -- and the above is the only known collection of his poetry compiled from various tazkirahs.
The scan above is taken from the book:
Mufti Sadru'd-Din Azurda by A'bdur Rahman Parwaz Aslahi (New Delhi: Maktaba Jamia 1977) [http://bit.ly/nXoThD ]
