Poem
If this fair flower blossom not, The bulbul will not sing, Nor rose-buds make the garden smile welcoming in the spring; If he is not the saki, then nor jar nor wine will be, Nor in this world will tawhid shine, Nor your heart beat in you; Yonder ethereal skyey tent, This great name still sustains, And dancing to its music, flows the blood in Life’s own veins. It is in the forests and the hills, And on the tranquil plains, On the seas, in the arms of waves, In roar of hurricanes; A music heard in China’s towns, Morocco’s desert-song, And hid within each Muslim’s heart, It makes his faith grow strong. Let all the peoples of the world see till the end of time, How I have made this glorious name beyond all thought sublime! That pupil of the eye of Earth, Soil only dark men tread, That region where have always been your martyrs born and bred, That land upon the hot sun’s lap, That land of al-hilal, Which lovers fondly love to call The land of their Bilal,-- Is all a-quiver with this Name, Like trembling mercury, Like pupils dark, in pools of light, It swims perpetually! Your shield be wisdom, be your sword the flaming Love Divine, My fond dervish! do you not know that all the world is yours? All else but God is at your feet, If sounds your Takbeer great; If you a Muslim truly are, Your effort is your fate. To my Muhammad be but true, And you have conquered me; The world is nothing you will command My Pen of Destiny. Kalam e Iqbal (The Answer to complaint by Allah AlMighty to Pious Muslim on their Kind Complaint) Translated By Aliza Kashmala Kiran.
