suno gar sun sako tum dastan-e-khun-chakan meri
rula degi magar aansu lahu ke dastan meri

na sun meri zaban se tazkira meri tabahi ka
zaban-e-haal se kah dengi sab barbaadiyan meri

tadap kar bhuk se aksar mere farzand marte hain
barahna-tan nazar aaengi tujh ko betiyan meri

phate kapdon mein jab malbus biwi ko main pata hun
to bandh jati hain aksar rote rote hichkiyan meri

meri mehnat ke shahid hain ye chhaale mere hathon ke
meri ghurbat ka mazhar hai ye jaan-e-nim-jaan meri

amiron ki na puchho tum agar kuchh bas chale un ka
to pi jaen lahu mera chaba len haddiyan meri

agar kuchh rahm kar sakte nahin hain meri haalat par
'ali' itna karen ki na udaen phabtiyan meri
