Na tum hu’e ho na ham hu’e haiN,
yuuN hii ye qisee raqam hu’e haiN,
(raqam : inscribed)
na hamne sehraa kii Khaak chhaanii,
na un ke ruKhsaar nam hu’e haiN,
( ruKhsaar : cheeks)
na ko’ii shikve shikaayateN haiN,
na ham pe ko’ii sitam hu’e haiN,
(shikve : complaints)
azaab utre haiN dushmanii meN,
na dostii meN karam hu’e haiN,
Khudaa ne ham ko bhulaa diyaa hai,
hamaare dushman sanam hu’e haiN,
zaruurateN bhii baRhii haiN “Alvi”,
gireh meN paise bhii kam hu’e haiN.
