Interesting Fact
From Part-1 till 1905 (Bang-e-Dara)
saḳhtiyāñ kartā huuñ dil par ġhair se ġhāfil huuñ maiñ

hai meri zillat hi kuchh meri sharafat ki dalil
jis ki ghaflat ko malak rote hain wo ghafil hun main
bazm-e-hasti apni aaraish pe tu nazan na ho

DhunDhta phirta hun main 'iqbaal' apne-ap ko
aap hi goya musafir aap hi manzil hun main
