Aankhon mein dhool jhonkna in Iqbal’s couplets
Raaz-e-hasti ko tu samajhti hai
Aur aankhon se dekhta hun main
Aur aankhon se dekhta hun main

Tu raaz-e-kun-fakan hai apni aankhon par ayan ho ja
Khudi ka raazdan ho ja, khuda ka tarjuman ho ja
Khudi ka raazdan ho ja, khuda ka tarjuman ho ja
You are the secret of creation — become visible to your own eyes. Become the confidant of your selfhood, the interpreter of the divine.

Samjhega zamana teri aankhon ke ishaare
Dekhenge tujhe dur se gardun ke sitare
Dekhenge tujhe dur se gardun ke sitare
