Song Of Despair (Iqbal's Shikwa)

                          

                                                                Song Of Despair Part-2
                                                                      (Iqbal’s Shikwa)  
           
                                                Thy divine being has always been present,
                                                The flower adorned the garden, but fragrance was at freeze,

                                                O the most Merciful! Justice is prayed! 
                                                How could the fragrance spread, if there was no breeze?

                                                Spreading Thy message was a bliss to us,   
                                                Otherwise Muhammed’s following was enough for us.

                                                Before us strange was the scenario of Thy world,
                                                At one place trees were worshipped and at other gods,

                                                Man was accustomed to worshipping perceptible god,
                                                How could one accept, then, an unseen God?

                                                Thou knoweth well, nobody worshipped Thee,                 
                                                It was the might of the Muslims which worked for Thee.
