خنک مردان کہ سحر او شکستندبہ پیمان فرنگی دل نبستند
How daring were they who broke his charms,Who paid no heed to his pledges warm.
مشو نومید و با خود شنا باشکہ مردان پیش ازین بودند و ہستند
Get not despaired, have thy ego’s own view,What did the past nations you also do.
From Armaghan-e-Hijaz (Persian) (1938) by Allama Muhammad Iqbal · verified text, Iqbal Academy Pakistan
