Bohat Zabardast, Tahir Ali Sahib.

I especially liked this one:

``Thay watan main bhi bay watan hum log
lakh kartay koi jatan hum log
gar ghulami pay chekhtay ziada
murda sartay thay bay kafan hum log``

Very Habib Jalibish slash Faizish.

Keep writing.

A good attempt, especially this `quadruplet`:

``Kuch ko raas ayee bay wafai hay
Kuchh nay apnoon say chot khai hay
jis nay apna zameer baich diya
us ki kismat main shehan shahi hay``


Keep it up dear.
