Words that rhyme with Mirza
From a sound-design view, mirza is a workaday word on the short /æ/, two-syllable, and it leaves the vowel hanging open. The lyric earns it by placement, not by selection. Sketch the rhyme pool and you get the strict column is unhelpful here, family rhymes come up empty, and the slant pool is enormous on the vowel side. Sketch the lyric role and you get a common-tongue word. The slant-by-vowel column will carry you a long way past the strict matches.

Why mirza rhymes the way it does
In our engine, mirza registers as a two-syllable word on the flat /æ/ (/æ/) that ends on an open vowel. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 1 match, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 52, assonance 3,373, and consonance 803. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. The songwriter's move is to pick a small set of strict rhymes for the chorus and open up to family and assonance through the verses. Mirza rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
