Allama Mohammad Iqbal


To this poor man of town pay special heed,
Who craves great ferments for thy bosom’s feed.
My woeful tone thus, a great wealth to soul,
A woeful heart’s wealth, not a common dole.
I have a right grievance on world’s taste blind,
Who took my love’s labour of Farhad’s kind.
On stone the axe sound, totally apart!
Listen! that was sound of axe and the heart!
