Masjid-e-Qurtuba

Allama Muhammad Iqbal · Bal-e-Jibril

Pas-e-manzar

Iqbal 1933 mein Hispania gaye aur Qurtuba ki tarikhi masjid dekhi; isi safar mein yeh nazm likhi gayi. Rekhta ke mutabiq yeh “Hispania ki sarzameen, bil-khusus Qurtuba mein” likhi gayi¹. Nazm 1935 mein chhapne wale majmue “Bal-e-Jibril” mein shamil hai, jise bahut se naqqad Iqbal ki Urdu shayari ka urooj mante hain³⁴. Solah solah misron ke aath bandon mein shayar waqt ki be-sabati, ishq ki paedari aur masjid ke fan ko “mard-e-momin” ki tasveer bana deta hai. Aakhri band mein “aab-e-rawan-e-Kabir” se murad Qurtuba ka darya Wadi al-Kabir hai².

Silsila-e-roz-o-shab tar-e-harir-e-do-rangJis se banati hai zaat apni qaba-e-sifat

Silsila-e-roz-o-shab saz-e-azal ki fughanJis se dikhati hai zaat zair-o-bam-e-mumkinat

Tujh ko parakhta hai yeh mujh ko parakhta hai yehSilsila-e-roz-o-shab sairafi-e-kainat

Tu ho agar kam-ayar main hoon agar kam-ayarMaut hai teri barat maut hai meri barat

Tere shab-o-roz ki aur haqiqat hai kyaEk zamane ki rau jis mein na din hai na raat

Aani-o-fani tamam mojiza-ha-e-hunarKar-e-jahan be-sabat kar-e-jahan be-sabat

Awwal-o-aakhir fana batin-o-zahir fanaNaqsh-e-kuhan ho ke nau manzil-e-aakhir fana

Hai magar is naqsh mein rang-e-sabat-e-dawamJis ko kiya ho kisi mard-e-khuda ne tamam

Mard-e-khuda ka amal ishq se sahib-e-furoghIshq hai asl-e-hayat maut hai is par haram

Tund-o-subuk-sair hai garcha zamane ki rauIshq khud ek sail hai sail ko leta hai thaam

Ishq ki taqwim mein asr-e-rawan ke siwaAur zamane bhi hain jin ka nahin koi naam

Ishq dam-e-Jibreel ishq dil-e-MustafaIshq Khuda ka rasool ishq Khuda ka Kalam

Ishq ki masti se hai paikar-e-gul tabnakIshq hai sahba-e-khaam ishq hai kaas-ul-kiram

Ishq faqeeh-e-haram ishq ameer-e-junoodIshq hai ibn-us-sabeel is ke hazaron maqam

Ishq ke mizrab se naghma-e-tar-e-hayatIshq se noor-e-hayat ishq se naar-e-hayat

Ae haram-e-Qurtuba ishq se tera wajoodIshq sarapa dawam jis mein nahin raft-o-bood

Rang ho ya khisht-o-sang chang ho ya harf-o-sautMojiza-e-fan ki hai khoon-e-jigar se namood

Qatra-e-khoon-e-jigar sil ko banata hai dilKhoon-e-jigar se sada soz-o-surur-o-surood

Teri faza dil-furoz meri nawa seena-sozTujh se dilon ka huzoor mujh se dilon ki kushood

Arsh-e-mualla se kam seena-e-Adam nahinGarcha kaf-e-khaak ki hadd hai sipihr-e-kabood

Paikar-e-noori ko hai sajda mayassar to kyaIs ko mayassar nahin soz-o-gudaz-e-sujood

Kafir-e-Hindi hoon main dekh mera zauq-o-shauqDil mein salat-o-durood lab pe salat-o-durood

Shauq meri lai mein hai shauq meri nai mein haiNaghma-e-Allah hoo mere rag-o-pai mein hai

Tera jalal-o-jamal mard-e-khuda ki daleelWoh bhi jaleel-o-jameel tu bhi jaleel-o-jameel

Teri bina paedar tere sutoon be-shumarSham ke sahra mein ho jaise hujoom-e-nakheel

Tere dar-o-baam par wadi-e-Aiman ka noorTera minar-e-buland jalwa-gah-e-Jibreel

Mit nahin sakta kabhi mard-e-musalman ke haiIs ki azanon se faash sirr-e-Kaleem-o-Khaleel

Is ki zameen be-hudood is ka ufuq be-sughoorIs ke samandar ki mauj Dajla-o-Danube-o-Neel

Is ke zamane ajeeb is ke fasane ghareebAhd-e-kuhan ko diya is ne payam-e-raheel

Saqi-e-arbab-e-zauq faris-e-maidan-e-shauqBaada hai is ka raheeq tegh hai is ki aseel

Mard-e-sipahi hai woh is ki zirah La ilahaSaya-e-shamsheer mein is ki panah La ilaha

Tujh se hua ashkar banda-e-momin ka raazIs ke dinon ki tapish is ki shabon ka gudaz

Is ka maqam-e-buland is ka khayal-e-azeemIs ka surur is ka shauq is ka niyaz is ka naaz

Haath hai Allah ka banda-e-momin ka haathGhalib-o-kar-afreen kar-kusha karsaz

Khaki-o-noori nihad banda-e-Maula sifatHar do jahan se ghani is ka dil be-niyaz

Is ki umeedein qaleel is ke maqasid jaleelIs ki ada dil-fareb is ki nigah dil-nawaz

Narm-dam-e-guftagu garm-dam-e-justujuRazm ho ya bazm ho pak-dil-o-pak-baz

Nuqta-e-parkar-e-haq mard-e-khuda ka yaqeenAur yeh aalam tamam wahm-o-tilism-o-majaz

Aql ki manzil hai woh ishq ka hasil hai wohHalqa-e-afaq mein garmi-e-mehfil hai woh

Kaaba-e-arbab-e-fan satwat-e-deen-e-mubeenTujh se haram-martabat Andalusiyon ki zameen

Hai tah-e-gardoon agar husn mein teri nazeerQalb-e-musalman mein hai aur nahin hai kaheen

Aah woh mardan-e-haq woh arabi shahsawarHamil-e-khulq-e-azeem sahib-e-sidq-o-yaqeen

Jin ki hukumat se hai faash yeh ramz-e-ghareebSaltanat-e-ahl-e-dil faqr hai shahi nahin

Jin ki nigahon ne ki tarbiyat-e-sharq-o-gharbZulmat-e-Europe mein thi jin ki khirad rah-been

Jin ke lahu ke tufail aaj bhi hain AndalusiKhush-dil-o-garm-ikhtilat saada-o-roshan-jabeen

Aaj bhi is des mein aam hai chashm-e-ghazalAur nigahon ke teer aaj bhi hain dil-nasheen

Boo-e-Yaman aaj bhi is ki hawaon mein haiRang-e-Hijaz aaj bhi is ki nawaon mein hai

Deeda-e-anjum mein hai teri zameen aasmanAah ke sadiyon se hai teri faza be-azan

Kaun si wadi mein hai kaun si manzil mein haiIshq-e-bala-khez ka qafila-e-sakht-jaan

Dekh chuka Almani shorish-e-islah-e-deenJis ne na chhore kaheen naqsh-e-kuhan ke nishan

Harf-e-ghalat ban gayi ismat-e-peer-e-kunishtAur hui fikr ki kashti-e-nazuk rawan

Chashm-e-Fransees bhi dekh chuki inqilabJis se dagar-goon hua maghribiyon ka jahan

Millat-e-Roomi-nizad kuhna-parasti se peerLazzat-e-tajdeed se woh bhi hui phir jawan

Rooh-e-musalman mein hai aaj wohi iztirabRaaz-e-khudai hai yeh keh nahin sakti zuban

Dekhiye is bahr ki tah se uchhalta hai kyaGumbad-e-neelofari rang badalta hai kya

Wadi-e-kuhsar mein gharq-e-shafaq hai sahabLal-e-Badakhshan ke dher chhor gaya aaftab

Saada-o-pur-soz hai dukhtar-e-dehqan ka geetKashti-e-dil ke liye sail hai ahd-e-shabab

Aab-e-rawan-e-Kabir tere kinare koiDekh raha hai kisi aur zamane ka khwab

Aalam-e-nau hai abhi parda-e-taqdeer meinMeri nigahon mein hai is ki sehar be-hijab

Parda utha doon agar chehra-e-afkar seLa na sakega Farang meri nawaon ki taab

Jis mein na ho inqilab maut hai woh zindagiRooh-e-umam ki hayat kashmakash-e-inqilab

Soorat-e-shamsheer hai dast-e-qaza mein woh qaumKarti hai jo har zaman apne amal ka hisab

Naqsh hain sab na-tamam khoon-e-jigar ke baghairNaghma hai sauda-e-khaam khoon-e-jigar ke baghair
