Iqbaal
جب عشق سکھاتا ہے آداب ا خود آگاہی
کھلتیں ہیں غلاموں پی اسرار ا شھنشی
این ا جوانمرداں حقگوی و بیباکی
الله کے شیروں کو آتی نہیں روباہی
ہے طائر ا لاہوتی اس رزق سے موت اکچھ
جس رزق سے آتی ہے پرواز میں کوتاہی
اتار ہو رمی ہو راضی ہو گزالی ہو
کچھ ہاتھ نہیں آتا بیاہ ا سہارگاہی
ڈرا و سکندر سے وو مرد ا فکرللہ
ہو جس کی فکری میں بو ا اسدلّہٰ
نومید نہ ہو ان سے ہے رہبر ا فرزانہ
کمکوش تو ہیں لیکن بےذوق نہیں رہی
اقبال
A rough Translation is given below
When Love teaches the ways of self realization
the divine secrets are revealed to the fettered
Characters of strong men are truth telling and fearlessness
the Lions of God know no tricks or deception
O divine bird ! Death is better than that subsistence
the subsistence which hinders you from soaring high
Be is Attar or Rumi or Razi or Ghazalli
Nothing was achieved without the guidance of dawnlight
That Fakir is better than Darius and Alexander
whose poverty has the fragrance of Asadullah (Ali)
Not be without hope O wise guide !
though slow paced are the travelers but not without zeal.
