I prefer writing in Urdu as it's my native language and I personally believe that it's one of the most rhythmic and poetic language.
# "برائے فروخت(Baraaye Farookht)"

آو کہ مجهے سر بازار خرید لو
میرے پروپرواز میرےافکارخرید لو
خرید لو کہ شاید کچه بن آئے
غریبی کو اے حضرت عیار خرید لو
aao k mjhy sar-e-bazar khareed lo
mery par-o-parwaz, mery ufqaar khareed lo
Khareed lo k shayad kuch bn aye
Gharebi ko ay hazrate Ayyar khareed lo

تخیل کی گہرائی میرے لفظوں کا سحر
مقام خاک کا سبهی معیار خرید لو
takhayul ki gehrayi, mery lafzon ka sehar
muqam-e-khak ka sbhi meyar khareed lo

میری عزت و آبرو سب بکاو ہے
آو شریف شہر میرا وقار خرید لو
meri izzat-o-aabro sb bakao ha
aao shareef-e-shehar mera waqqar khareed lo

فٹ پاته پر بچها ٹاٹ کا ٹکڑا
بندہ مزدور سے چین وقرار خرید لو
foot path pr bicha taat ka tukra
bnday-e-mazdoor sa chain-o-qarrar khareed lo

English translation

"For Sale"

Come on buy me from bidding market
Buy my dreams, my wisdom, my wings
Buy me to satisfy your cruel greed
Oh the clever, buy my hunger/poverty

Buy my depth of imagination and my magical words
Buy my poetic soul and it's rhythm

My honor and nobility is for sale
Come on, Oh patrician! buy my dignity

The shadowy tree, the home of the homeless
Buy that shadow and the spirited soul
