Kalam-e-Iqbal

Set your own standard on the soil of love!
Create a place for thyself in the world of love;
Create a new age, new days, and new nights.
If God grant thee an eye for natures beauty,
Converse with the silence of flowers; respond to their love.
Do not be beholden to the Wests artisans,
Seek thy sustenance in what thy land affords.
My voice is the essence of my life-blood,
Create thy elixir of life out of this essence.
