مرا از پردۂ ساز آگہی نیستولی دانم نواے زندگی چیست
Although I have no knowledge of the keys,Yet I know very well life’s melody.
سرودم آنچنان در شاخسارانگل از مرغ چمن پرسد کہ این کیست؟
So nicely did I sing it in the treesThe rose said to the thrushes, "Who is he?"
From Payam-e-Mashriq (1923) by Allama Muhammad Iqbal · verified text, Iqbal Academy Pakistan
