ببرگ لالہ رنگ آمیزی عشقبجان ما بلا انگیزی عشق
Love paints the tulip’s leaves a vivid red,And storms our hearts with its disastrous flood.
اگر این خاکدان را واشگافیدرونش بنگری خونریزی عشق
Split up your carnal frame and see how LovePaves its way through your being’s core with blood.
From Payam-e-Mashriq (1923) by Allama Muhammad Iqbal · verified text, Iqbal Academy Pakistan
