Dr. Iqbal utilized magnificent Urdu vocabulary in this ballad and featured accomplishments of Muslims. In Shikwa, he played an abused and disappointed Muslim who is being griping to Allah Almighty. In its subsequent part, he accepted if Allmighty Lord Himself is tending to this grumbling Muslim and offering an explanation to his dissent. Sadly, rather than getting some bring up of this magnificent work, some inflexible and intolerant supposed Muslim researchers of that time announced Dr. Iqbal an insubordinate disapproved of individual who is being discourteous to God. Be that as it may, over the long haul, this ballad demonstrated its value and it is as yet material for the entire Muslim world even today.
Shikwa
Hai Baja Sewa-e-Tasleem Mein Mashhoor Hai Ham
Qissa-Dard Sunate Hain Ke Majboor Hai Hum
I grant that we have earned repute as ever reconciled fate,
But to you still to tele of pain i can no longer help narrate
Saaz-e-Khamosh Hain, Farayed Se Maamoor Hain Hum
Nala Ata Hai Agar Lap pe To Maazoor Hain Hum
Thoug we may seen like voiceless lyres within,
Imprisoned , and i obey, framing these plaintive melodies.
Ae Khuda Shikwa-e-Arbab-e-Wafa Bhi Sun Le
Khugar-e-Hamd Se Thora Sa Gila Bhi Sun Le
Hear of proven O God! These sad complaints from those of proven fealty,
From lips accustomed but to praise heaf you these words in blame of you.
Thi To Maujood Azal Se Hi Teri Zaat-e-qadim,
Phool Tha Zaib-e-Chaman, Par Na Preshan Thi Shamim.
FFrom when eternal time began, your timeless self had also been;
But then no breez its sweetness spread though the rose reigned the garden's queen.
Shart Insaaf Hai, Ae sahib-e-Altaf-e-Amim Boo-e-Gul Phailti Kis Tarah Jo Hoti Na Nasim
Canst you, in justice ,but confees, o lord! From whom all favours flow,
Had not the sauth wind toiled not khonw,
Hum Ko Jamiat-e- khatir Ye Preshani Thi
Warna ummat Tere mehboob (S.A.W.) ki Diwani Thi
The glad travial we sought for you rejoiced our souls and was our pride,
Thinkst you the followers of your friend insanely spread your truth so wide?
Hum Se Pehle Tha Ajab Tere Jahan Ka Manzar
Kahin Masjood Tha Pather Kahin Maabood Shajar
Before we came, how strange a sight was this most beauteas world of thine (Yourg)?
For here to stones men bowed their heads and there in trees ~Gods enshrine.
Khugar-e-Paiker-e-Mahsoos Thi Insaan Ki Nazar
Manta Phir koi Un-Dekhe Khuda Ko Kyunkar
Their unenlight minds could seize nought else but what their eyes could see.
You know, lord your writ ran not"man neither knew nor worshipped thee (you)!
Tujh Ko Maalum Hai Leta Tha Thi Namm Tera?
Quwwat-e-Baazoo-e-Muslim Na Kiya Kaam Tera
And canst you say that even once one of these did your name recite?
It was the might of muslim arms fulfilled your task and gave them light
Bas Rahe The Yahin Saliuq Bhi, Toorani Bhi
Ahl-e-Chin Cheen Mein Iran Mein Sasaani Bhi
Yet once there lived the seljuks here, turanians too, and wish chinese,
Sasanians drew their breath and thrived in rose perfumed iranian breeze
Issi Maamoore Mein Aabad The Yoonani Bhi
Issi dunya mein yahudi Bhi The, Nusraani, Bhi
And elsewhere in your people world the greeks of yunan held their sway,
While sons of israel by side with christain nations had their cloy.
Par Tere Nam Pe Talwar Uthai kis Ne
Baat Jo Bigri Howi Thi, Woh Banaai Kis Na
Sacred word in holy fight,
Self consecrated to your cause to set their crozy world aright.
Shikwa
Kyun Ziyaan Kar Banun, Sood Framosh Rahun
Fikr-e-Farda Na Karum, Mahw-e-Ghum-e-Dosh Rahun
Why shuld i chose the loser's role? Forbear to seek what gain i may?
Nor things of what the morrow holds, But brood o'er woes of yesterday?
Naale Bulbul Ke Sunoon , Aur Hama Tan Gosh Rahun
Mumnawa Main Bhi Koi Gul Hun Ke Khomosh Rahun
Why should my ear anraptured hear the plaintive note of philomed?
Fellow bard! a rosh am i to lose me in sweet music's well?
Jurrat Aazoz Miri Taab-e-Sakhun Hai Muja Ko
Shikwa Allah Se Kharkam Badaham Hai Mujh Ko
For i too have the gift of song which gives me courage to complain,
But ah! ~Tis non but God! Himself whom i, in sorrow must arraign!
Hai Baja Sewa-e-Tasleem Mein Mashhoor Hai Ham
Qissa-Dard Sunate Hain Ke Majboor Hai Hum
I grant that we have earned repute as ever reconciled fate,
But to you still to tele of pain i can no longer help narrate
Saaz-e-Khamosh Hain, Farayed Se Maamoor Hain Hum
Nala Ata Hai Agar Lap pe To Maazoor Hain Hum
Thoug we may seen like voiceless lyres within,
Imprisoned , and i obey, framing these plaintive melodies.
