This is Mirza Ghalib, the most famous and prominent among Urdu poets.
This is how he flattered the tall ladies around him,تیرے سرو قامت سے اک قدّ آدم
قیامت کے فتنے کو ہم دیکھتے ہیں
and then he addressed the shorties of his time,
دم بھر نہ ٹھرے دل میں نہ آنکھوں میں ایک پل
اتنے سے قد پے تم بھی قیامت شریر ہو
He must have said something for the women with medium height too. Keeping an eye on the women of all height, may be that's why he didn't get time to make money for his livelihood. But did those women really believed in what he said? I don't think so.
