Urdu Poem: Allama Iqbal: Dard-e-Ishq

Ay dard-e-ishq! hay gohray aab-daar ttu
Namehramon mein dekh nah ho aashkar ttu
Pinhan tahey niqab tiri jalwahgah hay
Zahir parast mehfilay no ki nigah hay
Aai nai hawa chamanay hast-o-buud mein
Ay darday ishq! aab nahi lazzat namuud mein
Han, khudnumaion ki tujhay justuju nah ho
Minnat pazir nala-a bulbul ka ttu nah ho
Khali sharabay isaq say lalay ka jam ho
Pani ki bund girya-a shabnam ka naam ho
Pinhan darunay sinah kahein raz ho tira
Ashqay jigar gudaz nah ghammaz ho tira
Goya zubanay shair rangin biyan nah ho
Aawazay nay mein shikwah-a furqat nihan nah ho
Yeh dor nuqtahchin hay, kahein chup kay beth reh
Jis dil mein ttu makin hay, wahein chup kay beth reh

Ghafil hein tujh say heratay ilm afridah dekh
Joya nahi tiri niggahay na-rasidah dekh
Rehnay day justuju mein khiyalay buland ko
Herat mein chor didah-a hikmat pasand ko
Jis ki bahar ttu ho yeh aysa chaman nahi
Qabil tiri namud kay yeh anjuman nahi
Yeh anjuman hay kushtah-a nazzarah-a majaz
Maqsad tiri nigah ka khalwat sara-a raz
Har dil mey-a khiyal ki masti say chuur hay
Kuch oor aaj kal kay kalimon ka ttur hay
