لحد میں بھی یہی غیب و حضور رہتا ہےاگر ہو زندہ تو دل ناصبور رہتا ہے
Lahad Mein Bhi Yehi Ghaib-o-Huzoor Rehta HaiAgar Hi Zinda To Dil Na-Saboor Rehta Hai
If self of man perfection gains, Devoid of rest his heart remains:Even in the niche of grave, Presence and Absence he must brave.
مہ و ستارہ، مثال شرارہ یک دو نفسمے خودی کا ابد تک سرور رہتا ہے
Meh-o-Sitara, Misal-e-Shararah Yak Do NafasMai-e-Khudi Ka Abad Tak Suroor Rehta Hai
The Moon and stars shine like a spark, For moments few and then the dark:The rapture caused by egoʹs wine, Is as eternal as things divine.
فرشتہ موت کا چھوتا ہے گو بدن تیراترے وجود کے مرکز سے دور رہتا ہے!
Farishta Mout Ka Chhuta Hai Go Badan TeraTere Wujood Ke Markaz Se Door Rehta Ha!
If your ego is ripe and mature, Your life from Death becomes secure:Deathʹs angel may earthly frame contact, But can not harm your soul, in fact.
From Zarb-e-Kaleem (1936) by Allama Muhammad Iqbal · verified text, Iqbal Academy Pakistan
