I just love this recitation. Book Baal e Jibreel, poet Allama Muhammad Iqbal

خردمندوں سے کيا پوچھوں کہ ميري ابتدا کيا ہے

خردمندوں سے کيا پوچھوں کہ ميري ابتدا کيا ہے
کہ ميں اس فکر ميں رہتا ہوں ، ميري انتہا کيا ہے
خودي کو کر بلند اتنا کہ ہر تقدير سے پہلے
خدا بندے سے خود پوچھے ، بتا تيري رضا کيا ہے
مقام گفتگو کيا ہے اگر ميں کيميا گرہوں
يہي سوز نفس ہے ، اور ميري کيميا کيا ہے!
نظر آئيں مجھے تقدير کي گہرائياں اس ميں
نہ پوچھ اے ہم نشيں مجھ سے وہ چشم سرمہ سا کيا ہے
اگر ہوتا وہ مجذوب فرنگي اس زمانے ميں
تو اقبال اس کو سمجھاتا مقام کبريا کيا ہے
نواے صبح گاہي نے جگر خوں کر ديا ميرا
خدايا جس خطا کي يہ سزا ہے ، وہ خطا کيا ہے!
جرمني کا مشہور محذوب فلسفي نطشہ جو اپنے قلبي واردات کا صحيح اندازہ نہ کرسکا
اوراس ليے اس کے فلسفيانہ افکار نے اسے غلط راستے پر ڈال ديا

Why should I ask wise men about my origin?
For my mind ponders on the end of my life.

Raise thy Selfhood so high that before each dispensation,
God Himself may ask thee what thy wishes are.

If I am an alchemist, my only alchemy
Is the yearning and the passion that consume my heart.

I know not about those dark, unknown, mysterious eyes,
That, in their fathomless depths, have power over my fate.

If that absorbed man of the West * had been alive today,
Iqbal would have taught him about the attributes of God.

The agony of morning sighs has lacerated my heart,
If this is a punishment, O God, what sin have I committed?

* (Iqbals note): Nietzsche, the famous philosopher of Germany, who was unable to determine his exact emotional experiences, and whose philosophical speculations led him astray.

  • @MsHabiba777

    Thanks For your Kind words. 

  • Meraj-e-jahalat... no one's even bothered to pay attention to (let alone discuss), Iqbal's facination with Nietzsche in one of the most important couplet in this beautifuly poem. I think Mark Twain was right "East is East and West and the twain shall never meet. So enjoy your pathetic existence, oh ye ahl-el-mashriq ". Thou shalt never understand this. Genetic inferiority stops you from knowing this .

  • @aqsnow

    my friend you seem to have no idea about what you are talking abt.

    If you want to know about genetic capabilities of the eastern people and civilizations, i would suggest you to read 5000 year's history of the east.

  • buhat khoob ! tabyat khush hui

    sooz e nafas kay liye aur shola e eshq may hi jalti aur tadapti rahi ye ummat

    laikin uss sooz ka hasil saaz---kul slamti ki khuda-dad ne-mat say phir bhi mahroom rahi ye ummat

    khami uss rah e fikr o amal may hai--nizam e fikr o amal---nizam e taleem o bandagi may khami rahjanay ki wajeh say wo an-amta alaihim kay zumray may shamil nahi haien

    sooz o saaz

    shola e eshq o shan e faqr ye buhat hi azeez estelahat thay dr iqbal kay

  • whose voice is that? it is quite nice :)

  • Of course, pakitanver... thanks . What irritated me was that no one is talking about it. It is such a neglected, and willfully so, aspect of of Iqbaliyat. I love Iqbal as a philospher (more than a poet) but his idea of ''Khudi' was a direct lift-off of the 'ubermensch

    ' concept that Nietzche proposed. But no one's bothered to see this vital connection. Jaun elia ka ek sher aisay mauqay par ...

    "Nisbat-e-ilm hai bohot haakim-waqt ko aziz... us nay tou kar-e-jahl bhi be-ulama nahin kiya"...
