Ali Arshad Mir (Punjabi: علی ارشد میر; January 1, 1951 – October 16, 2008) was an epic Punjabi poet and writer, sometimes described as the "Homer of Punjab". His works have been translated into languages such as Urdu and English. In the 1970s, his International Anthem brought him recognition. His lines, girti hui dewaroo koo aik dhaka aur do (Urdu: گرتی ہوئی دیوارون کو ایک دھکا اور دو) are a popular slogan in the Punjab and around the world. His work includes dozens of poems that depict the socio-economic condition of society's oppressed people. They also highlight the sacrifices of the subcontinent's resistance movements.
