Baang-e-Dara: 41
The Call of The Marching Bell: 41
Subah Ka Sitara
Morning Star
Lutf-e-Humsayegi-e-Shams-o-Qamar Ko Chorun
Aur Iss Khidmat-e-Paigham-e-Sehar Ko Chorun
Enough of this sun‐and‐moon neighboring glory—
Enough of this office of heralding dawn!
Mere Haq Mein To Nahin Taron Ki Basti Achi
Iss Bulandi Se Zameen Walon Ki Pasti Achi
Worthless to me the abodes of the planets,
Lowly earth‐dwelling is more than these heights
Aasman Kya, Adam Abad Watan Hai Mera
Subah Ka Daman-e-Sad Chaak Kafan Hai Mera
I inhabit, to heaven but a realm of extinction,
Dawn’s skirt of the hundred‐fold rent for my shroud:
Meri Qismat Mein Hai Har Roz Ka Merna Jeena
Saqi-e-Mout Ke Hathon Se Saboohi Peena
To live, to die daily my fate, to be poured
The morning‐draught first by the cup-bearer Death.
Na Ye Khidmat, Na Ye Izzat, Na Ye Riffat Achi
Iss Ghari Bhar Ke Chamakne Se To Zulmat Achi
Thankless this duty, this station, this dignity—
Better the dark then to shine for one hour!
Meri Qudrat Mein Jo Hota To Na Akhtar Banta
Qa’ar-e-Darya Mein Chamakta Huwa Gohar Banta
No star would I be, if it lay in my will,
But a gleaming white pearl in the cavernous sea,
Waan Bhi Moujon Ki Kashakash Se Jo Dil Ghabrata
Chor Kar Behr Kahin Zaib-e-Guloo Ho Jata
And then, if too fearful the strife of the waves,
Leave ocean, and hang in some necklace—what joy
Hai Chamakne Mein Maza Husn Ka Zaiwar Ban Kar
Zeenat-e-Taj-e-Sar-e-Bano-e-Qaisar Ban Kar
It would be there to glitter as beauty’s bright pendent,
A gem in the crown of an emperor’s consort!
Aik Pathar Ke Jo Tukre Ka Nasiba Jaaga
Khatam-e-Dast-e-Suleman Ka Nageen Ban Ke Raha
What fragment of stone, if its destiny smiled,
Might not flash in the ring on the finger of Solomon?
Aesi Cheezon Ka Magar Dehr Mein Hai Kaam Shikast
Hai Guhr Haye Giran Maya Ka Anjaam Shikast
Zindagi Woh Hai Ke Jo Ho Na Shanasaye Ajal
Kya Woh Jeena Hai Ke Ho Jis Mein Taqazaye Ajal
Hai Ye Anjaam Agar Zeenat-e-Alam Ho Kar
Kyun Na Gir Jaun Kisi Phool Pe Shabnam Ho Kar!
If, making earth lovely, our end must be thus,
Let me rather be changed to a flower‐falling dewdrop,
Kisi Paishani Ke Afshan Ke Sitaron Mein Rahun
Kisi Mazloom Ki Aahon Ke Shiraron Mein Rahun
A speck in the gold‐dust that paints a bride’s forehead,
A spark in the sigh that a wounded heart breathes—
Ashak Ban Kar Sir-e-Mazgan Se Atak Jaun Main
Kyun Na Uss Biwi Ki Ankhon Se Tapak Jaun Main
Jis Ka Shohar Ho Rawan Ho Ke Zrah Mein Mastoor
Sooye Maidan-e-Dagha, Hub-e-Watan Se Majboor
Yaas-o-Umeed Ka Nazara Jo Dikhati Ho
Jis Ki Khamoshi Se Taqreer Bhi Sharmati Ho
Jis Ko Shohar Ki Raza Taab-e-Shakeebai De
Aur Nigahon Ko Haya Taqat-e-Goyai De
Zard., Rukhsat Ki Ghari, Aariz Gulgoon Ho Jaye
Kashish-e-Husn Gham-e-Hijar Se Afzoon Ho Jaye
Lakh Woh Zabt Kare Par Main Tapak Ho Jaun
Saghir-e-Didah-e-Purnam Se Chhalak Ho Jaun
Khak Mein Mil Ke Hayat-e-Abdi Pa Jaun
Ishq Ka Souz Zamane Ko Dikhata Jaun
To find in the dust an immortal new life,
And teach to the world the long passion of love.
