The Poetry of Allama Iqbal

Muhammad Iqbal
4.5/5 ( ratings)
Sir Mohammad Iqbal also known as Allama Iqbal, is a great name in Urdu and Persian literature. He wrote his poetry in Urdu and Farsi , and that bridged and encompassed the past many centuries of man's endeavours in the realms of thought and intuition. He emblazoned the high standards set by Mirza Asadullah Khan 'Ghalib', and glorified the literature in his own way. He was a scholarly personality, and wrote on various subjects, from philosophy to politics, from romance to emotions and so on. He wrote world famous poem 'sare jahan se acha Hindustan hamara' and many other such 'nazams' which are even today considered as great poetical creations. He was honoured with the title 'sir' by the British Government for his contributions to the literature.

The present collection is a representative of Iqbal's Urdu poetry, which has been transliterated into English verses, with translation into Devanagari and Roman script. The English translation has been done by Khwaja Tariq Mahmood, who earlier translated the poems of Mirza Ghalib and Sahir Ludhianvi, and is now working on many other collections.
