Kalam-e-Iqbal by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan(Virsa heritage revived)-Kabhi aye Haqeeqat-e-Muntazar nazar aa

This Ghazal is sung by many singers like Ghulam Ali, Masood and sheelo Khan, Ibrar ul Haq, Nashenas , Lata and also is available in some Qawalli version. But to me in each composition one thing was not completely expressed & that is lack of feelings of a helpless human being in front of Almighty which i can feel here in Rahat's version.
This is recording from program Aadab-e-Khud Aagahi for Iqbgal's Birthday special and Mian Yousuf Salahuddin tells that Rahat Himself asked to sing this Kalam. Many thanks to Raat for saving us from Ibrar's version (lolzzz..i like that version too but Ibrar's version is nothing compare to this one)
so guys..lets enjoy this ghazal whis is a humble request of Iqbal to Almighty Allah and it asks us to to take a pause of few minutes and think, are we able to understand te actual meninges of religious rituals.
Kalam-e-Iqbal from book Bang-e-Dara
PTV Program Virsa heritage revived
Singer: Rahat Fateh Ali Khan
Host: Mian Yousaf salahuddin, Iffat Umar
Though this ghazal is very popular it is full of mysticism. Each verse has a different theme. The ghazal as a whole defines the relationship between God and Man.

Lyrics in Urdu script
کبھي اے حقيقت منتظر نظر لباس مجاز ميں
کہ ہزاروں سجدے تڑپ رہے ہيں مري جبين نياز ميں
تو بچابچا کے نہ رکھ اسے، ترا آئنہ ہے وہ آئنہ
کہ شکستہ ہو تو عزيز تر ہے نگاہ آئنہ ساز ميں
نہ کہيں جہاں ميں اماں ملي، جو اماں ملي تو کہاں ملي
مرے جرم خانہ خراب کو ترے عفو بندہ نواز ميں
نہ وہ عشق ميں رہيں گرمياں،نہ وہ حسن ميں رہيں شوخياں
نہ وہ غزنوي ميں تڑپ رہي، نہ وہ خم ہے زلف اياز ميں
جو ميں سر بسجدہ ہوا کبھي تو زميں سے آنے لگي صدا
ترا دل تو ہے صنم آشنا، تجھے کيا ملے گا نماز ميں

Roman script
Kabhi Aye Haqeeqat-e-muntazar, Nazar Aa Libaas-e-majaaz Mein
Ke Hazaaron Sajade TaRap Rahe Hain Meri Jabeen-e-niyaaz Mein
tu bacha bacha Ke na Rakh ise, Tera Aayena Hai woh Aaiena
Ke Shikasta Ho To Azeez tar Hai Nigaah-e-aayina saaz Mein
Na kaheen Jahan main aman mili jo amaan mili to kahan mili
mere jurm/e/khana kharaab ko tere afv e banda nawaz main
Na woh Ishq Mein Raheen Garmiyaan, Na Vo Husn Mein Raheen Shokiyaan
Na woh Gazanavi Mein TaRap Rahi Na Vo Kham Hai Zulf-e-aayaaz Mein
Main Jo Sar-ba-sajada Hova Kabhi, To Zameen Se Aane Lagi Sada
Tera Dil To Hai Sanam Aashana, Tujhe Kya Milega Namaaz Mein

Explanation
O the much sought after Reality! Some time appear in material form
As innumerable prostrations restless in my humble forehead are

Do not jealously protect them , your mirrors are the mirrors
Which would be dearer in the Maker's eye if they broken are
(In Islamic mysticism, mirror is a metaphor of Heart.Iqbal says: apne dil ko bacha bacha kar na rakho tum darte ho ke kahin tumhaara dil dukhi na ho jaaey, toot na jaaey yaad rakho, dukhi aur toote huwey dil ooper waaley ki nazar mein ziyaada qeemti hain)

My wretched sins could not get shelter anywhere except
When they in the shade of Thy Gracious Forgiveness were
( Allusion to the Holy Quran 39:53)

Neither Love has that warmth nor Beauty has that humor
Neither that restlessness in Ghaznavi nor those curls in the hair locks of Ayyaz are

Whenever I went into prostration a voice came from the earth
Your heart is in materialism no rewards for your prayers are

Hindi
कभी ऐ हक़ीक़त-ए-मुन्तज़र! नज़र आ लिबास-ए-मजाज़ में
के हज़ारों सज्दे तड़प रहे हैं तेरी जबीन-ए-नियाज़ में
तू बचा बचा के न रख इसे तेरा आईना है वो आईना
के शिकस्ता हो तो अज़ीज़तर है निगाह-ए-आईना-साज़ में
न कहीं जहाँ में अमाँ मिली जो अमाँ मिली तो कहाँ मिली
मेरे जुर्म-ए-ख़ानाख़राब को तेरे उफ़्वे-ए-बंदा-नवाज़ में
न वो इश्क़ में रहीं गर्मियाँ न वो हुस्न में रहीं शोख़ियाँ
न वो ग़ज़नवी में तड़प रही न वो ख़म है ज़ुल्फ़-ए-अयाज़ में
मैं जो सर-ब-सज्दा कभी हुआ तो ज़मीं से आने लगी सदा
तेरा दिल तो है सनम-आशनाअ[ तुझे क्या मिलेगा नमाज़ में

you are welcome Arti ji..:)

[kuckudk]

apne dil ko bacha bacha kar na rakho tum darte ho ke kahin tumhaara dil dukhi na ho jaaey, toot na jaaey.

yaad rakho, dukhi aur toote huwey dil ooper waaley ki nazar mein ziyaada qeemti hain)

The last lines are even more beautiful

Whenever I went into prostration a voice came from the earth

Your heart is in materialism so no rewards for your prayers.

I have listened to this famous Ghazal many times but never new its meaning.

Yaar Tauseef tum to bahut pahunchi hui cheez ho.

It is awesome.

namaz jazba e sadiq salamti ki hikmat o taleem hai

rooza jazba e aala tur kay liye adna khahishat ki qurbani ki daleel hai

zakat uss jazba e ne-mat ki pakeezgi ki daleel hai

khairat uss jazba e ne-mat e islam ki khairiat ki daleel hai

sadaqa uss jazba e lazawal o awwal o akhir ki suchayi ki daleel hai

aur haj iss jazba e baham amn ki afaqi honay ki daleel hai

laikin aaj ye sub kiya faqat ek rasm

batour e rasm ada karnay ki wajeh say ham mash-hoor haien ham jahilana rusoom ko mantay haien

[kulyateiqbal]

shukriya upload ka janab

salahuddeen sahab nay buhat hi dil awaiz turz iss nazm ki banayi

ye tarz pooray kalam e iqbal ki tarjumani kar rahi hai !



[kulyateiqbal]

kitab tou ne-mat e baham salamti ( mutual order ) hasil karnay kay liye muhkam qanoon e akhir hai

ab iss kay baad koi rahnumayi anay wali hai aur na koi qanoon aur rasool

laikin bud qismati hai kay hamein iss qanoon per yaqeen nahi hai kay ham ko ye Allah ki ne-mat dila sakta hai

ham Allah ki tareef kartay haien laikin uss qanoon ki burtar aur qabil e tareef kam hi samajhtay haien aur ghairoun ki choukhat per saa-il bankar khaday rahtay haien jo qowm imam e aqwam banna tha roti ki muhtaj hi

[kulyateiqbal]

Allah ki ne-mat ki nishaniyan hi uss ka libas e majaz hai

kyounkay Allah ki koi tasweer nahi !

ham haien kay iss ne-mat kay jazbay o ehsas ko bacha bacha kar rakhtay haien

jab kay iss ki takmeel may apnay jism ko fana kardena hi zindagi ka maqsad hai

hazrat umar razi-alla ko jab mout say daraya gaya tou aap nay roomiyoun say kaha aiy nadano jis tarah tum zindagi ko azeeez rakhtay ho ham uss say bhi ziyada mout ko azeez tur rakhtay haien bashartay kay ne-mat e kul salamti (islam) hasil hojaiy
