ALLAMA IQBAL

Mohammad Iqbal (1877–1938), revered as the poet-philosopher of the East, was born in Sialkot to a Kashmiri Brahmin family that had embraced Islam centuries earlier. Rooted in the classical traditions of Arabic, Persian, and Urdu, and shaped by a liberal Western education in Lahore, Cambridge, and Germany, Iqbal emerged as a unique voice that bridged civilisations. Equally at ease with Eastern metaphysics and Western thought, he gave to the world the profound philosophy of khudi—selfhood grounded in love, action, and divine purpose. Though celebrated in Pakistan as a visionary of its creation, he also penned the enduring Indian patriotic anthem "Sāre Jahān Se Achchā", reflecting a heart that beat for unity. His poetry—rich in symbol, myth, and metaphor—reimagines history, faith, and humanity in a timeless quest for harmony and wholeness.

naya shiwala

ALLAMA IQBAL

sach kah duuñ ai barhaman gar tū burā na maane
tere sanam-kadoñ ke but ho ga.e purāne

apnoñ se bair rakhnā tū ne butoñ se sīkhā
jañg-o-jadal sikhāyā vaa.iz ko bhī ḳhudā ne

tañg aa ke maiñ ne āḳhir dair o haram ko chhoḌā
vaa.iz kā va.az chhoḌā chhoḌe tire fasāne

patthar kī mūratoñ meñ samjhā hai tū ḳhudā hai
ḳhāk-e-vatan kā mujh ko har zarra devtā hai

aa ġhairiyat ke parde ik baar phir uThā deñ
bichhḌoñ ko phir milā deñ naqsh-e-duī miTā deñ

suunī paḌī huī hai muddat se dil kī bastī
aa ik nayā shivāla is des meñ banā deñ

duniyā ke tīrathoñ se ūñchā ho apnā tīrath
dāmān-e-āsmāñ se is kā kalas milā deñ

har sub.h uTh ke gaa.eñ mantar vo mīThe mīThe
saare pujāriyoñ ko mai piit kī pilā deñ

shaktī bhī shāntī bhī bhagtoñ ke giit meñ hai
dhartī ke bāsiyoñ kī muktī priit meñ hai
