از غلامی دل بمیرد در بدن
از غلامی روح گردد بار تن
از غلامی بزم ملت فرد فرد
این و آن با این و آن اندر نبرد
آن یکی اندر سجود این در قیام
کاروبارش چون صلوة بی امام
در فتد هر فرد با فردی دگر
هر زمان هر فرد را دردی دگر
از غلامی مرد حق زنار بند
از غلامی جوهرش ناارجمند
مرگ ها اندر فنون بندگی
من چه گویم از فسون بندگی
نغمهٔ او خالی از تار حیات
همچو سیل افتد به دیوار حیات
From slavery, the heart dies in the body
From slavery, the soul becomes a burden
From slavery, the nation breaks one by one
This and that do not mix with that and this
One is prostrating and the other is standing
For it is like a prayer without a leader
Every individual fall down one by one
Every individual feels the pain of the other
From slavery, the man of truth is bounded
From slavery, the essence is worthless
For there lie deaths in the art of slavery
What can I say about the culture of slavery
Its song is devoid of spirit of life
Like a flood falling on the wall of life
Narration: Shaheed Khatibi

Muhammad Iqbal (Urdu: محمد اقبال; 9 November 1877 - 21 April 1938) was a South Asian Muslim writer, philosopher, and politician, whose poetry in the Urdu language is thought by many to be among the greatest of the twentieth century, and whose vision of a cultural and political ideal for the Muslims of British-ruled India was to animate the impulse for Pakistan. He is commonly referred to by the honorific Allama (from Persian علامه ʻallāma, "very knowing, most learned".)
Born and raised in Sialkot, Punjab (present-day Pakistan) in an ethnic Kashmiri family, Iqbal studied in Sialkot and Lahore, and thereafter in England and Germany. Although he established a law practice after returning, he concentrated primarily on writing scholarly works on politics, economics, history, philosophy, and religion. He is best known for his poetic works, including Asrar-e-Khudi-which brought a knighthood-Rumuz-e-Bekhudi, and the Bang-e-Dara. In Iran, where he is known as Iqbāl-e Lāhorī (Iqbal of Lahore), he is highly regarded for his Persian works. Iqbal was a strong proponent of the political and spiritual revival of Islamic civilization across the world, but in particular in South Asia; a series of lectures he delivered to this effect were published as The Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam. A leader in the All India Muslim League, he envisioned-in his 1930 presidential address-a separate political framework for Muslims in British-ruled India. After the creation of Pakistan in 1947, he was named the national poet there. The anniversary of his birth (Yōm-e Welādat-e Muḥammad Iqbāl) on 9 November is a public holiday in Pakistan.
