Mujh Ko Phir Naghmon Pe Uksane Laga Murg-E-Chaman
Hill and vale once more under the poppy’s lamps are bright,
In my heart the nightingale has set new songs alight;
Ude Ude, Neele Neele, Peele Peele Payrhan
Violet, violet, azure, azure, golden, golden, mantles—
Flowers, or fairies of the desert, rank on rank in sight?
Aur Chamkati Hai Iss Moti Ko Sooraj Ki Kiran
On the rosy‐spray dawn’s soft breeze has left a pearl of dew,
Now the sunbeam turns this gem a yet more glittering white.
Hun Agar Shehron Se Bann Payare To Shehar Ache K Bann
Town or woodland, which is sweeter, if for her unveiling
Careless beauty love towns less than where green woods invite?
Tu Agar Mera Nahin Banta Na Bann, Apna To Bann
Delve into your soul and there seek our life’s buried tracks;
Will you not be mine? then be not mine, be your own right!
Tann Ki Dunya! Tann Ki Dunya Sood-O-Soda, Maker-O-Fann
World of soul—the world of fire and ecstasy and longing:
World of sense—the world of gain that fraud and cunning blight;
Tann Ki Doulat Chaon Hai, Ata Hai Dhan Jata Hai Dhan
Treasure of the soul once won is never lost again:
Treasure gold, a shadow—wealth soon comes and soon takes flight.
Man Ki Duniya Mein Na Dekhe, Mein Ne Sheikh-O-Barhaman
In the spirit’s world I have not seen a white man’s Raj,
In that world I have not seen Hindu and Muslim fight.
Tu Jhuka Jab Ghair Ke Agay, Na Mann Tera Na Tann
Shame and shame that hermit’s saying pouted on me—you forfeit
Body and soul alike if once you cringe to another’s might!

DeleteWe are proud of you Dr. Iqbal
ReplyDeleteMasterpiece !!!
ReplyDeleteBohat bohat shukria,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, meri bohat bari mushkil aasan hogai.
ReplyDeleteLong Live Sir Iqbal.
ReplyDeleteReally appreciate the efforts whoever has taken for Iqbal's work.
ReplyDeleteOne thing I want to suggest is that please take care of correct pronunciation in transliteration of poetry.
e.g Bad-E-Subah, it should be Bade-E-Subh likewise there are various words in different books. Thanks!
Well suggested
DeleteAllah Iqbal ko apni jaware Rahmat me jaga dein and Allah hum me aur bohot se Iqbal paida kar...Aameen
ReplyDeleteAllama Iqbal guides us to Obey Allah, follow the Quran and help others , be humble and Love for Prophets family. Then we can be successful. Success is within you , Kudi me doob kar.....
ReplyDeleteKabhi aey, Naujawan Muslim! taddabur bhi kiya tu ney?
Wo kya gardon tha tu jis ka hai ik toota hua tara
Tujhey uss qaum nay pala hai aaghosh-e-mohabbat main
Kuchal dala tha jis nay paon main taaj-e-sir-e-dara
Khudi ko ker buland itna kay her taqdeer say pehley
Khuda bandey say khud poochey bata teri raza kya hai
loving it!
ReplyDeleteiqbal was a gift of Allah and his poetry is also.......
ReplyDeleteTimeless and beautiful words
ReplyDeleteand a beautiful ideal to live life by
He was a great man and poet of Asia
ReplyDelete"Man Ki Duniya Mein Na Dekhe, Mein Ne Sheikh-O-Barhaman" should be translated as "In the land of the spirit I see no muslims and no hindus"
ReplyDeletewhere did you get fight from?
Please don't add your own interpretation to the translation
I fully agree with you, but what they're trying to do is poetic translation.They are translating it into an English poem with the same rhyme scheme as the original one.
Deletewhat does that mean by the way either.Does that mean that in reality in eyes of God there is no Hindu or Muslim, just Human???as if both are on straight path and lead to God?
DeleteThat means there's no upper or caste.

ReplyDeleteWah IQBAL, May Allah be pleased with you and what you did for your nation. In all reality we didn’t understand nor we tried to understand his deep message for us. Unfortunately we lost his message and especially the young and new generation. Had Iqbal was born in West, they would have elevated his ranks, his teachings by practically obeying his teachings. We surely missed it, lost him and his message. Let’s try to understand, and act upon his msg of Khudi, sincerity, and self respect. We may rise again as a proud nation.
ReplyDeleteحکومتِ پاکستان کو چاہیے کہ علامہ کا کلام سکولوں میں پڑھانے کا بدوبست کرے اور ہر طالبِ علم کو یاد کروا دیا جائے صحیح طریقے سے سمجھایا بھی جائے دیکھنا پھر یہ قوم کیسے صحیح معنوں میں قومِ رسولِ ہاشمی ﷺ بنتی ہے.
ReplyDeleteU need to look at first line to understand the perspective. Iqbal saying World of soul is free from any man made masters either White men or Relegious bigots. Sheikh o Barhmen are the symbols of Relegious control and manifestation.
