(Armaghan-e-Hijaz-12) Ghareebi Mein Hun Mehsud-e-Ameeri (غریبی میں ہوں محسود امیری) My poor estate makes proud men covetous

Ghareebi Mein Hon Mehsood-E-Ameeri

Ke Ghairatmand Hai Meri Faqeeri 

My poor estate makes proud men covetous,

Poverty such as mine ennobles us.

Hazzar Uss Faqar-O-Darveshi Se, Jis Ne

Musalman Ko Sikha Di Sar-Ba-Zayri

Beware those other rags and begging‐bowls 

That make the Muslim pusillanimous!
