حکیمان گرچہ صد پیکر شکستندمقیم سومنات بود و ہستند
Philosophers break idols in their wrath,But still are prisoners of Being’s Somnath.
چسان افرشتہ و یزدان بگیرندہنوز آدم بہ فتراکی نبستند
They chase God and His angels. But how canThey capture them? Have they yet captured man?
From Payam-e-Mashriq (1923) by Allama Muhammad Iqbal · verified text, Iqbal Academy Pakistan
