Opened up the ways to feel the goodness of the lord .

Our people, had they set their hearts on this world’s riches or its gold, Not idol-breaking would have gone but idols would have bought and sold.

They came, they gave their hearts to Thee, they had their recompense, and went. On all men’s minds we set Thy seal, Thy tawhid’s firm and sure impress— The selfsame message preached our lips when swords danced high in battle’s stress.

Thy court-yard empties. Forbear to seek what gain I may? Or take to idol-worshipping?

Whose was that conquest-thirsty sword which won and held the world in fee? Not even once, Thou knowest well, we strove against the world in vain. Among those nations, was there one who craved Thee as we craved and sought?
That ignorant man who lacks the grace to open their lips in conclave high Should have their coffers treasure-filled, is not the burden of our sigh; But O, that these worlds best should fall to unbelievers from Thy hand While we on promises are fed of pleasures in a shadowy land! Is this Thy recompense to those who sacrifice their lives for Thee? Towards the Hijaz turn again the straying tribe their bridle-strings! When worship’s ordained hour was come, and furious raged the battle’s fray, Those men of Hijaz, staunch in Thee, facing Thy Ka‘ba, bowed to pray. Declare Thou whose fierce valour once did Khyber’s barriers overthrow? Our only life was then to face the perils 0f Thy holy wars; To glorify Thy name we died, adorned with hallowed battle scars. Shikwa: Why should I abet the loss, why forget the gain, Why forfiet the future, bemoan the past in vain? Why cherishes Thou not, O Lord, the Faithful as in days of yore? The legend , there will be no other like him tell end of time. Thy world, how eagerly, today on strangers, all its grace bestows: For those who walk Thy chosen way a world of dreams its glamour throws!

The blood of sweet Arabian vine O’erflows this wine-jar Ajamy, Although the singer sings in Ind, of Hijaz is his melody.Get all latest content delivered straight to your inbox. Dr. Allama Muhammad Iqbal is the national poet of Pakistan. It was the might of Muslim arms fulfilled Thy task and gave them Light.

They came glad lovers, begging love; With future promise turned away: Go, shine Thy Beauty’s lamp about and seek and win them if Thou may! And who was it that quenched and cooled the fiery urns of fair Iran? The pageantries of mighty kings to us were shows that mattered not, Beneath the shade of blades unsheathed in Kalima, we glory sought. Gila, Shikwa, and Shikayat are three common Urdu words with the same meaning: Reproach, or complaint. Slave or slave’s master, rich or poor, no sense of difference then felt, For each, a brother was to each when in Thy Presence, Lord, they knelt. Why should my ears enrapture hear the plaintive notes of Philomel?

Nor think of what the morrow holds, but brood o’er woes of yesterday? From when eternal Time began, Thy Timeless Self had also been; But then no breeze its sweetness spread through the Rose reigned the garden’s queen.

Or whose resistless might once lay famed Caesar’s proudest cities low?

Of idol-breaking did we tire? And those who offered Thee affront our swift, relentless fury faced, Their mightiest arms we set at nought, their insolence and pride abased. And who did unbelieving hosts to spread Thy name and glory slay? We who removed from this world’s book the leaves which were with falsehood stained, We who, from tyrant ignorance, rhe prisoned human race unchained, We who with myriad sajdas filled Thy holy Ka'ba’s hallowed shrine, Whose bosoms reverently held Thy great and glorious Book Divine— If our meed still the obloquy that we have shirked the Faithful’s part, How then canst Thou make claim to be the kindly faith-compelling heart?
