Iqbal Day

Posted: Nov 9, 2004 Tue 11:56 am     Views: 174   

My most favorite passage from Iqbal’s poetry:

kis ko ab ho ga watan meiN,aah mera intezaar!
kaun mera khat na aanay say rahay ga bay-qaraar

khaak-e-marqad par teri, lay kar yeh faryaad aaooN ga
ab doa-e-neem-shab meiN, kis ko maiN yaad aaooN ga?!

tarbiyat say teri, maiN anjum ka ham-qismat hua
ghar meray ajdaad ka sarmaaya-e-izzat hua

daftar-e-hasti meiN thi zarreeN waraq teri hayaat
thi saraapa deen o dunya ka sabaq teri hayaat

umr bhar teri mohabbat meri khidmat gar rahi
maiN teri khidmat kay qaabil jab hua, tu chal basi!!!
