Urdu Poem: Allama Iqbal: Parinday Ki Faryad

- BACHON KAY LIYE -

Aata hay yad mujh ko guzra huwa zamana
Woh bagh ki baharein woh sab ka chehchahana
Aazadiyan kahan woh abb apnay ghonslay ki
apni khushi say aana, apni khushi say jana
Lagti hay chot dil par, aata hay yad jis dam
Sabnam kay ansuon par kalyon ka muskurana
Woh piyari piyari surat, woh kamni si murat
Aabad jis kay dam say tha mera aashiyana
Aati nahin sadaein os ki miray qafs mein
Hoti miri riha-e ay kash meray bas mein!

Kiya badnasibb hoon mein ghar ko taras raha hoon
Sathi tto hein watan mein, mein qeyd mein parra hoon
Aa-e bahar, kalyan pholon ki hans rahi hein
Mein iis andheray ghar mein qismat ko ro raha hoon
Iis qeyd ka Ilahi! Dukhrra kisay sunaon
Dar hay yahein qafs mein main gham say mar na jaon

Jab say chaman chuta hay, yeh hal ho giya hay
Dil gham ko kha raha hay, gham dil ko kha raha hay
Gana iisay samajh kar khush hon nah sunnay walay
Dukkhay hu-a dilon ki faryad yeh sada hay
Aazad mujh ko kar day, O qeyd karnay walay
Mein bezuban hoon qeydi, ttu chorr kar dua lay
