Zamana (Allama Muhammad Iqbal )

Zamana – Time (Bal-e-Jibril-143)

                                     Poet : Allama Muhammad Iqbal

Jo Tha Nahin Hai, Jo Hai Na Ho Ga, Yehi Hai Ek Harf-e-Mehrmana

Qareeb Tar Hai Namood Jis Ki Ussi Ka Mushtaq Hai Zamana

            Meri Soorahi Se Qatra Qatra Naye Hawadis Tapak Rahe Hain

            Main Apni Tasbeeh-e-Roz-o-Shab Ka Shumar Karta Hon Dana Dana

Har Aik Se Ashna Hun, Lekin Juda Juda Rasme-o-Rah Meri

 Kisi Ka Raakab, Kisi Ka Markab, Kisi Ko  Ibrat Ka Taziyana

             Na Tha Agar Tu Shareek-e-Mehfil, Qasoor Mera Hai Ya Ke Tera

             Mera Tareeka Nahin Ke Rakh Loon Kisi Ki Khatar Mai’ay Shabana

 Mere Kham-o-Paich Ko Najoomi Ki Ankh Pehchanti Nahin Hai

 Hadaf Se Baigana Teer Uss Ka, Nazar Nahin Jis Ki Arfana

             Shafaq Nahin Maghrabi Ufaq Par, Ye Jooye Khoon Hai, Ye Jooye Khoon Hai!

             Tulu-e-Farda Ka Muntazir Reh Ke Dosh-o-Amroz Hai Fasana

Woh Fikar-e-Ghustakh Ji Ne Uryaan Kiya Hai Fitrat Ki Taqaton Ko

 Ussi Ki Betab Bijliyon Se Khatr Mein Hai Uss Ka Ashiyana

              Hawaen Un Ki, Fazaen Un Ki, Sumundar Un Ke, Jahaz Un Ke  
              Girah Bhanwar Ki Khule To Kyunkar, Bhanwar Hai Taqeer Ka Bahana

 Jahan-e-Nau Ho Raha Hai Paida, Woh Alam-e-Peer Mar Raha Hai

 Jise Farangi Muqamiron Ne Bana Diya Hai Qimar Khana

              Hawa Hai Go Tund-o-Taiz Lekin Charagh Apna Jala Raha Hai

              Woh Mard-e-Darvesh Jis Ko Haq Ne Diye Hain Andaz-e-Khusarwana
