    tumheñ ma.alūm hai taimūr faujeñ jis vaqt

    apne dushman pe baḌhā kartī thiiñ

    aurteñ pīchhe rahā kartī thiiñ

    aur jo aalim the fāzil the un insānoñ jarga sab ke

    pīchhe pīchhe chalā kartā thā

    kis liye sab ko rah-e-zīst pe har gaam baḌhāne vaale

    sab se pīchhe chalā karte haiñ

    ilm meñ ek buniyādī kamī hai varna

    ilm har ek zamāne meñ har ek shai se taraqqī paatā

    aaj iqbāl ye kahtā hai ki aurat sho.ala vo jis se yūnān

    hashr tak ilm-e-falātūn se rahegā zinda

    aaj schōl meñ college meñ maqām-e-avval

    auratoñ ke liye maḳhsūs kiye jaate haiñ

    aaj añgrezī paḌhī jaatī hai juġhrāfiya tārīḳh har ik ilm yahāñ

    aise ustād sikhātā hai ki jaise ham ko

    yahī ma.alūm nahīñ hai ki jo aalim the jo fāzil the un insānoñ jarga sab se

    pīchhe pīchhe baḌhā kartā thā

    aurteñ un se zarā aage rahā kartī thiiñ

    aurteñ aaj bhī aage rahā kartī haiñ

    aurteñ aaj bhī kahtī haiñ hamāre gesū

    chāhe bikhre hoñ ki ek juuḌe meñ pāband kiye baiThe hoñ

    dekhne vāloñ nākām tamannāoñ ko

    ek haath ke pāband huā karte haiñ

    vahī ik haath jo talvār ko pahlū meñ liye

    sab se aage chalā kartā hai

    us ko kuchh ilm parvāh nahīñ (aurat bhī parvāh kyā hai)

    us ko kuchh ilm nahīñ kaise falātūñ pal meñ

    ik sharar ban ke bujhā kartā hai

    sāmne to hai magar terā munavvar chehra

    usī jāhil ko nazar aatā hai

    jo ye kahtā hai ki taimūr faujeñ jis vaqt

    apne dushman pe baḌhā kartī thiiñ

    aurteñ pīchhe rahā kartī thiiñ

    aur jo aalim the jo fāzil the vo ye sochte the

    haar kis shaḳhs hai jiit hai kis chhoḌo

    ham bhī kin chhoTī bātoñ meñ ulajh baiThe haiñ

    chalte chalte mujhe tezī se ḳhayāl aayā hai

    terā ye juuḌā jo khul jaa.e bikhar jaa.e to phir kyā hogā

    merī tārīḳh ki terī tārīḳh

    phail kar aaj pe (aur kal pe bhii) chhā jā.egī

    sochne vaale ko ik pal meñ batā jā.egī

    aurteñ pīchhe agar hoñ bhī to aage rahā kartī haiñ

    aur falātūñ chachā haath meñ talvār liye aage baḌhā kartā hai

    lo vo juuḌā bhī falātūñ se kuchh kahne lagā

    aur raste meñ use kaun milegā taimūr

    aur vo us se kahegā ki yahāñ kyuuñ aa.ī

    mire pīchhe chalī ki tire pīchhe hamesha har-dam

    ilm yuuñ reñgte reñgte baḌhtā jaa.e

    jaise har baat ke pīchhe har baat

    reñgte reñgte baḌhtī chalī jaatī hai

    aur har ek falātūñ jo sharar ban ke chamaktā hai vo miT jaatā hai

    tumhein malum hai taimur ki faujen jis waqt

    apne dushman pe baDha karti thin

    aurten pichhe raha karti thin

    aur jo aalim the fazil the un insanon ka jarga sab ke

    pichhe pichhe hi chala karta tha

    kis liye sab ko rah-e-zist pe har gam baDhane wale

    sab se pichhe hi chala karte hain

    ilm mein ek hi buniyaadi kami hai warna

    ilm har ek zamane mein har ek shai se taraqqi pata

    aaj iqbaal ye kahta hai ki aurat hi ka shoala wo jis se yunan

    hashr tak ilm-e-falatun se rahega zinda

    aaj school mein college mein maqam-e-awwal

    auraton ke liye maKHsus kiye jate hain

    aaj angrezi paDhi jati hai jughrafiya tariKH har ek ilm yahan

    aise ustad sikhata hai ki jaise hum ko

    yahi malum nahin hai ki jo aalim the jo fazil the un insanon ka jarga sab se

    pichhe pichhe hi baDha karta tha

    aurten un se zara aage raha karti thin

    aurten aaj bhi aage hi raha karti hain

    aurten aaj bhi kahti hain hamare gesu

    chahe bikhre hon ki ek juDe mein paband kiye baiThe hon

    dekhne walon ki nakaam tamannaon ko

    ek hi hath ke paband hua karte hain

    wahi ek hath jo talwar ko pahlu mein liye

    sab se aage hi chala karta hai

    us ko kuchh ilm ki parwah nahin (aurat ki bhi parwah kya hai)

    us ko kuchh ilm nahin kaise falatun pal mein

    ek sharar ban ke bujha karta hai

    samne to hai magar tera munawwar chehra

    usi jahil ko nazar aata hai

    jo ye kahta hai ki taimur ki faujen jis waqt

    apne dushman pe baDha karti thin

    aurten pichhe raha karti thin

    aur jo aalim the jo fazil the wo ye sochte the

    haar kis shaKHs ki hai jit hai kis ki chhoDo

    hum bhi kin chhoTi si baaton mein ulajh baiThe hain

    chalte chalte mujhe tezi se KHayal aaya hai

    tera ye juDa jo khul jae bikhar jae to phir kya hoga

    meri tariKH ki teri tariKH

    phail kar aaj pe (aur kal pe bhi) chha jaegi

    sochne wale ko ek pal mein bata jaegi

    aurten pichhe agar hon bhi to aage hi raha karti hain

    aur falatun ka chacha hath mein talwar liye aage baDha karta hai

    lo wo juDa bhi falatun hi se kuchh kahne laga

    aur raste mein use kaun milega taimur

    aur wo us se kahega ki yahan kyun aai

    ja mere pichhe chali ja ki tere pichhe hamesha har-dam

    ilm yun rengte hi rengte baDhta jae

    jaise har baat ke pichhe har baat

    rengte rengte baDhti hi chali jati hai

    aur har ek falatun jo sharar ban ke chamakta hai wo miT jata hai
