Zindagi (Life) ​

​

Pukhta tar hai gardish-e-peham se jaam-e-zindagi,​

Hai yahi ae bekhabar raaz-e-dawam-e-zindagi;​

(Mellow grows the wine of life when hand to hand the cup goes round,​

Foolish one! In this alone is life’s eternal secret found)​

Bartaraz andaisha’ay sood-o-ziyaa'n hai zindagi,​

Hai kabhi jaa'n aur kabhi tasleem-e-jaa'n hai zindagi;​

(Life is higher than the calculation of profit and loss;​

Life is sometimes living and sometimes forfeiting living)​

Tu isse pemana’ay amroz-o-farda se na naap,​

Javidaa'n, peham dawaa'n, har dam jawaa'n hai zindagi;​

(Do not measure it by the scale of today and tomorrow;​

Life is eternal, constantly moving, at every moment youthful)​

Apni dunya aap paida kar agar zindon mein hai,​

Sirr-e-Adam hai, zameer-e-kun fika'an hai zindagi;
( If you are among the living, fashion your own world;​

Life is the secret of Adam, the essence of the words Be and it was!)​

Zindagani ki haqeeqat kohkaa'n k dil se pooch,​

Jooye sheer-o-teesha-o-sang-e-gara'an hai zindagi;​

(Ask the reality of life form the heart of the mountain‐digger;​

Life is the milky stream, the axe and the hard stone)​

Bandagi mein ghat k reh jaati hai ek joo'ay kam aab,​

Aur azaadi mein behr-e-bekara'an hai zindagi;​

(In servitude the stream diminishes and almost runs dry,​

And in freedom life is an ocean which knows no bounds)​

Aaashkaara hai ye apni quwwat-e-taskheer se,​

Gar che ek mitti k paikar mein niha'an hai zindagi;​

(It knows well its power of domination,​

Although life is hidden in a frame of clay)​

Qulzam-e-hasti se tu ubhra hai manind-e-habab,​

Iss ziya'an khane mein tera imtiha'an hai zindagi.​

(From the sea of existence you arose like a bubble;​

In this dwelling of loss, life is your test)​

​

Allama Muhammad Iqbal​

​

Apni dunya aap paida kar agar zindon mein hai,​

Sirr-e-Adam hai, zameer-e-kun fika'an hai zindagi;​

( If you are among the living, fashion your own world;​

Life is the secret of Adam, the essence of the words Be and it was!)​

​

​

Allama Muhammad Iqbal​

Oh My Lord..
This part. Beautiful. Although the Urdu is so high level! The translation is amazing. Hats off to Allama Muhammed Iqbal. He was a great man!

The Melody​

​

..______..​

​

​

The sound of the reciter, loud and clear, captivates my mind,​

Every word, every phrase pours into my heart like flowing water,​

With the volume on full, the inner peace is obtained, it's one of a kind,​

My body gives in, relaxing itself as if nothing in this world can matter...​

​

I close my eyes, reflecting on the verses being recited so melodiously, ​

I find the shortcomings in my life, and am awestruck at the Creation, how it was made,​

With the sound of the Qur'an, soothing my heart and making me feel care-free,​

All the worldly matters of my life, slowly and reluctantly begin to fade...​

​

~~~(The Imam)~~~​

The words flow out of my mouth, my heart and my mind,​

I feel the weight of every sin I committed, in secrecy or openness,​

The force of every verse I utter, gushes forth memories I had left behind,​

I declare the oath, the Tawhid. I beg for Mercy and testify to my Lord's Oneness...​

​

~~~ (Us)~~~​

​

All that matters, right then, is Islam: our religion, our lifestyle.​

All that matters, right there, is Jannah: our dwelling, our aim.​

And I could give anything to have my life taken away, at that while,​

For, right then, my world is set straight, it's no longer the same...​

​

~~~​

​

That sound, the voice, is beautiful until it cracks,​

My body, my mind and heart stop functioning,​

The Imam's silent sobs are heard throughout the tracks,​

I press "pause" and glide into the world of self-reflecting...​

Aankh se door na ho dil se utar jaayega
Waqt kaa kyaa hai guzarataa hai guzar jaayegaa
itnaa maanuus na ho Khilvat-e-Gam se apnai
tuu kabhi Khud ko bhi dekhega to dar jaayega
tum sar-e-raah-e-vafaa dekhate rah jaaoge
aur wo baam-e-rafaaqat se utar jaayega

zindagi teri ataa hai to ye jaanevaala
teri baKhshish teri dahleez pe dhar jaayega
dobte dobte kashti ko ochhaala de don
main nahin koi to saahil pe utar jaayegaa
zabt laazim hai magar dukh hai qayaamat kaa ‘Faraz’
zaalim ab ke bhi na royega to mar jaayega
(By Ahmad Faraz)

Aankh se duur na ho dil se utar jaayegaa
Waqt kaa kyaa hai guzarataa hai guzar jaayegaa
itnaa maanuus na ho Khilvat-e-Gam se apanii
tuu kabhii Khud ko bhii dekhegaa to dar jaayegaa
tum sar-e-raah-e-vafaa dekhate rah jaaoge
aur wo baam-e-rafaaqat se utar jaayegaa
zindagii terii ataa hai to ye jaanevaalaa
terii baKhshiish terii dahaliiz pe dhar jaayegaa
duubate duubate kashtii to ochhaalaa de don
main nahiin koii to saahil pe utar jaayegaa
zabt laazim hai magar dukh hai qayaamat kaa ‘Faraz’
zaalim ab ke bhii na royegaa to mar jaayegaa

Tulu-e-Islam ​

Daleel-E-Subah-E-Roshan Hai Sitaron Ki Tunak Tabi​

Ufaq Se Aftab Ubhra, Gya Dour-E-Garan Khawabi​

​

(The dimness of the stars is evidence of the bright morning.​

The sun has risen over the horizon; the time of deep slumber has passed.)​

​

Urooq-E-Murda’ay Mashriq Mein Khoon-E-Zindagi Dora​

Samajh Sakte Nahin Iss Raaz Ko Seena-O-Farabi​

​

(The blood of life runs in the veins of the dead East:​

Avicenna and Farabi cannot understand this secret.)​

​

Musalman Ko Musalman Kar Diya Toofan-E-Maghrib Ne​

Talatum Haye Darya Hi Se Hai Gohar Ki Seerabi​

​

(The storm in the West made Muslims Muslims.​

Pearls are produced in abundance from the very buffetings of the sea.)​

​

Atta Momin Ko Phir Dargah-E-Haq Se Hone Wala Hai​

Shikoh-E-Turkamani, Zehan-E-Hindi, Nutq-E-Arabi​

​

(The true believers are once more to receive from the court of God​

The glory of the Turkamans, the intellect of the Indians and the eloquence of the Arabs.)​

​

​

Zameer-E-Lala Mein Roshan Charagh-E-Arzoo Kar De​

Chaman Ke Zarre Zarre Ko Shaheed-E-Justujoo Kar De​

​

(Make the lamp of desire bright in the heart of the tulip!​

Make every particle of the garden a martyr to search!)​

​

Jahan Baani Se Hai Dushwar Tar Kar-E-Jahan Beeni​

Jigar Khoon Ho To Chashm-E-Dil Mein Hoti Hai Nazar Paida​

​

(More difficult than the conquest of the world is the task of seeing the world;​

When the heart is reduced to blood, only then does the eye of the heart receive its sight.)​

​

Tere Seene Mein Hai Poshida Raaz-E-Zindagi Keh De​

Musalman Se Hadees-E-Soz-O-Saaz-E-Zindagi Keh De​

​

(The secret of life is hidden in your breast—then tell it;​

Tell the Muslims the account of the burning and re‐making of life.)​

unicorn 25 Does Allama iqbal have a poem with simple urdu? I really love his poetry, but it's soooo hard to make out what he's saying unless i read the english translation

Same case here. That's why I hate Urdu A in O levels. The poetry always ticks me off.
But it's not like I don't like any of his poetry. It's just that almost all the words in his verses are out of my vocabulary list.

Life is, more or less, incomplete without the understanding of Iqbal's poems and philosophies.

I always try to increase my vocabulary by his poems
thats something else I only remember 5% of those words

Khyal-e-Karam-e-Khuda! Isi gharz say sar jhuka deta hoon
Maangna mujhay kuch nahi aata, bas haath utha deta hoon

Gunaahon say ghiri umar, aisi kaati hai k bas kiya kahoon
Sharm aati hai us say ham-kalam honay may, bas ik sada laga deta hoon

Haath uthtay hen meray, par bheek yun hi nahi milti
Ganday zameer ko dekh kr apnay, ashk baha deta hoon

suna tha Khuda bara Raheem, aur bara hi Ghafoor hai, bas
isi gharz say Us k aagay apni jholi phaila deta hoon

aankh nahi milti Khuda say, gunahon ka haal sunaun agar
tanhaie may bas dil hi ko dil ka haal suna deta hoon

Ashraf-ul-Makhlooqat hoon, sharf mujhay kiya haasil hai?
Bas dil ki taskeen k waastay, apni himaaqat k saboot mita deta hoon

Khuda say maafi mangoon to kis tarha, gunah-gaari yad aa jati hai
Ilfaaz halq may phas jaatay hen, so safhaat pr saja deta hoon
(Ahmed)​

 

[Hassaan Sami]

I like his poem "Jugnoo". It's the only one that's 50% understandable, for me.
