Literary Background & Context
پس منظر و تعارف

علامہ اقبال کی یہ شاہکار غزل ان کے مشہور مجموعہِ کلام 'بالِ جبریل' (1935ء) سے ہے۔ یہ غزل علامہ اقبال کے فلسفہِ خودی، عملِ پیہم، اور شاہین کے بلند پرواز استعارے کا مکمل خلاصہ پیش کرتی ہے۔ اقبال انسان کو قناعت پسندی اور محدود مادی دنیا کے حصار سے نکال کر کہکشاؤں سے پرے نئی کائناتوں کی تسخیر اور روحانی ارتقا کی دعوت دیتے ہیں۔

Featured in Allama Iqbal's celebrated 1935 Urdu collection 'Bal-e-Jibril' (Gabriel's Wing), this philosophical ghazal is the definitive manifesto of his doctrine of 'Khudi' (Selfhood) and ceaseless creative dynamism. Through the soaring metaphor of the Shaheen (Royal Falcon), Iqbal urges humankind to look beyond complacency and conquer infinite spiritual and intellectual frontiers.

Complete Roman Urdu Text (رومن اردو)

Sitaron se aage jahan aur bhi hain
Abhi ishq ke imtihan aur bhi hain

Tuhi zindagi se nahin yeh fazaayein
Yahan sainkdon kaarwan aur bhi hain

Qana'at na kar aalam-e-rang-o-boo par
Chaman aur bhi aashiyan aur bhi hain

Agar kho gaya ik nasheman to kya gham
Maqamaat-e-aah-o-faghan aur بھی hain

Tu shaheen hai parwaaz hai kaam tera
Tere saamne aasmaan aur bhi hain

Isi roz-o-shab mein ulajh kar na reh ja
Ke tere zamaan-o-makaan aur bhi hain

Gaye din ke tanha tha main anjuman mein
Yahan ab mere raazdaan aur bhi hain

Complete English Translation

Beyond the stars there lie other worlds yet to be explored For the trials and tests of love, many frontiers still remain! These boundless expanses are not devoid of vibrant life Hundreds of wandering caravans journey here still Do not rest content with this fleeting realm of colour and scent Other lush gardens and sublime nests await your arrival What grief if a single earthly dwelling has been lost? Other noble sanctuaries for your sighs and longing exist You are a royal falcon—soaring flight alone is your calling Endless heavens stretch wide before your wings Do not remain ensnared in this cycle of mundane nights and days For you possess other dimensions of time and space beyond mortal grasp Gone are the days when I stood alone and unheard in the gathering Today, many kindred souls share my secret vision.
