جہانی تیرہ تر با آفتابیصواب او سراپا نا صوابی
A gloom still lurking in broad day light,His right is ne’er right but the ‘might’ is right.
ندانم تا کجا ویرانہ ئے رادہی از خون آدم رنگ و آبی
I know not how far he stoops to his gloom,From the Adam’s blood get a glow and bloom.
From Armaghan-e-Hijaz (Persian) (1938) by Allama Muhammad Iqbal · verified text, Iqbal Academy Pakistan
