Allama Iqbal- An Indian??

Re: Allama Iqbal- An Indian??

no it does not apply here though it may for the others.

u call an indian person ‘hindustani’, and not ‘a hindi.’

though ‘hindustani’ is a term that can be used for both hindi and urdu, as a language.

Re: Allama Iqbal- An Indian??

Maria Brahminzadi I thought he was your dada ji’s brother and not dada ji?

Re: Allama Iqbal- An Indian??

Ahh well let me clarify that we are not Brahman anymore. Its Hindu sect and we have no relation now with Brahmans. Yes, before accepting Islam we were Brahman but now we are just muslims.

So what will you call your Dada's brother? Uncle? I think the rank remain same according to Islam. As Chacha is equal to father and Khala is eqaul to mother. Yes, can't replace father's name it is restricted.

Like Arabs, you can say Osama Bin Laden. Well his father's name is Mohammad. His full name is Osama Bin Mohammad bin Aud bin Laden.

Re: Allama Iqbal- An Indian??

Well as far as what ive heard, read and know, it's called the 'tarana-e-hind.'

if you have evidence that its called something else, do lemme know.

being someone who's mothertongue is hindi, i think i can safely say that hindi is indeed only referred to as a language.

OMG, u can be a real authentic source if ur indeed his relative, about whether it is tarana-e-hind,or hindi.

Re: Allama Iqbal- An Indian??

u must have been reading the wrong thing…
i’ve never heard it anything other than tarana-e-hindi…

here u go…

Re: Allama Iqbal- An Indian??

^ well thats what i just said too.

ive never heard it being called anything but tarana e hind.

which is why i asked u for evidence : )

Re: Allama Iqbal- An Indian??

hey thanks for that, but i can't read urdu?

and can u gimme the source too.

Re: Allama Iqbal- An Indian??

Well Hindi means an Indian as well as a language. So its nothing wrong with Tarana-e Hindi. He has praised the beauty of his region. Nothing else.

Like Afghani means a person related to Afghan. But their currency name is Afghani also. So it doesnot controdict.

Translation and transliteration.

Taraanah-e-Hindi (Anthem of an Indian)

Saarey Jahaan Se Acha Hai Hindustan Hamaara
Our India is better than the whole universe

Ham Bulbulen Hain Iski Yeh Gulistan Hamaara
We are its nightingales and it our garden.

Ghurbat Mein Hon Agar Ham Rehta Hai Dil Watan Mein
Even when in foreign lands our heart remains in our motherland.

Samjho Vaheen Hameen Bhi Dil Ho Jahaan Hamara
Therefore consider us where our heart is.

Parbat Woh Sab Se Ooncha Hamsaaya Aasmaan Ka
*The highest of all mountains, a neighbour of the heaven*sky

Vo Santari Hamara, Who Paasbaan Hamara
It is our guardian, it is our protector

Godi Mein Khelti Hain Uski Hazaaron Nadiyaan
In it’s lap play thousands of rivers

Gulshan Hai Jin Ke Dam Se Rashk-E-Jinaan Hamara
Due to which our garden is flourishing and is our pride.

Ae Aab-E-Rood-E-Ganga, Woh Din Hai Yaad Tujh Ko
Oh honoured River Ganges do you remember the day?

Utra Tere Kinaarey Jab Kaarvaan Hamaara
When our caravan reached your banks?

Mazhab Nahein Sikhata Aapas Mein Bair Rakhna
Religion does not teach hatred

Hindi Hain Ham Watan Hai Hindustan Hamara
We are Indians and India is our country

Yunaan-O-Misr-O-Roma Sab Mit Gaey Jahaan Se
Greece and Egypt and Rome have all perished

Ab Tak Magar Hai Baaki Naam-O-Nishaan Hamaara
But we continue to flourish

-Dr. Allama Iqbal
