Because being one o the judges, I should not be commenting on the entry, let me commet on the comments, itself

Bhai sahab, ko’ee aur muhawara reh gaya ho to woh bhi use ker lain

How about aap say koee baat kehna , sooraj ko chiragh dikhana, nahi nahi, chaand pay thooknay wali baat hai. But what if I am standing on the moon and thookoing on it

Re: Iqbal Poetry Contest - Comments Thread

from Iqbal's The Cup Bearer

what's life current? but a sword?
what is self? theedge of a sword?

what is self? life's heart secret
what is self? awakening all fret

sight - drunk, crazy for solitude
in a drop, ocean's plentitude

in darkness, light, shinning with glee
springs from I, You, and yet free

its beginning precedes, follows end,
limitless it is, at each end

ever - flowing in Time's river,
for waves' buffets, it has liver

changing paths of investigation,
varying vision at each sensation

easy for it, each uphill task
unravelled is, eah hurdle's mask

beginning and end, journey's nature
the secret of its, nomenclature

moon beam has glint, stone has flint
colourles it is, yet daubed in tint

it bothers not, more or less
up and down, digress, regress

since beginning, struggle's prisoner
came in Adam's clay, as shape-setter

seat of self, rests in thy heart
as eye's pupil, sky's resort

Hakeem-ul-Ummat, Muffakkir-e-Pakistan, Shaair-e-Mashriq, Dr. Sir Allama Muhammad Iqbal - a person considered to be the GREATEST and the BIGGEST poet of 20th century by a majority of Critics needs no introduction on his name for he is commonly well known to everyone who is related to Pakistan in someway or other and to muslims especially Arabs who have read his translated work…

The following information about him is taken from Wikipedia and is accurate as per my own knowledge about him.

Sir Muhammad Iqbal (Urdu:** محمد اقبال**) born (November 9, 1877 – April 21, 1938) was a Muslim poet, philosopher and politician born in Sialkot, British India (now in Pakistan), whose poetry in Urdu and Persian is among the greatest of the modern era, and whose vision of an independent state for the Muslims of British India was to inspire the creation of Pakistan. He is commonly referred to as Allama Iqbal (علامہ اقبال‎, Allama lit. Scholar.)

After studying in England and Germany, Iqbal established a law practice, but concentrated primarily on writing scholarly works on politics, economics, history, philosophy and religion. He is best known for his poetic works, including Asrar-e-Khudi—which brought a knighthood— Rumuz-e-Bekhudi, and the Bang-e-Dara, with its enduring patriotic song Tarana-e-Hind. In Afghanistan and Iran, where he is known as Iqbāl-e Lāhorī (اقبال لاهوری‎ Iqbal of Lahore), he is highly regarded for his Persian works.

Iqbal was a strong proponent of the political and spiritual revival of Islamic civilisation across the world, but specifically in India; a series of famous lectures he delivered to this effect were published as The Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam. One of the most prominent leaders of the All India Muslim League, Iqbal encouraged the creation of a “state in northwestern India for Indian Muslims” in his 1930 presidential address. Iqbal encouraged and worked closely with Muhammad Ali Jinnah, and he is known as Muffakir-e-Pakistan (“The Thinker of Pakistan”), Shair-e-Mashriq (“The Poet of the East”), and Hakeem-ul-Ummat (“The Sage of Ummah”). He is officially recognised as the “national poet” in Pakistan. The anniversary of his birth (یوم ولادت محمد اقبال‎ - Yōm-e Welādat-e Muhammad Iqbāl) on November 9 is a holiday in Pakistan.

Iqbal Died on April 21st, 1938 in Lahore.

His works in urdu includes the following books in his name:

• Baang-e-Dara (1924)

• Baal-e-Jibreel (1935)

• Zarb-e-Kaleem (1936)

• Armaghan-e-Hijaaz (1938)
  His works in Persian includes the following books in his name:

• Asrar-e-Khudi (1915)

• Rumuz-e-Bekhudi (1918)

• Payaam-e-Mashriq (1923)

• Zaboor-e-A’jam (1927)

• Javaidnaama (1932)

• Pas Chah Bayaad Kard (1936)

• Armaghan-e-Hijaaz (1938) - also in the list of urdu poetry

lab pe aatii hai duaa banake tamannaa merii zindagii shammaa kii surat ho Khudaayaa merii

duur duniyaa kaa mere dam a.Ndheraa no jaaye
har jagah mere chamakane se ujaalaa ho jaaye

ho mere dam se yuu.N hii mere watan kii ziinat
jis tarah phuul se hotii hai chaman kii ziinat

zindagii ho merii parawaane kii surat yaa rab
ilm kii shammaa se ho mujhako mohabbat yaa rab

ho meraa kaam Gariibo.n kii himaayat karanaa
dard-ma.ndo.n se zaiifo.n se mohabbat karanaa

mere Allaah buraaii se bachaanaa mujhako
nek jo raah ho us raah pe chalaanaa mujhako

kahiye kesi rehi presntation and poetry…

Re: Iqbal Poetry Contest - Comments Thread

I am just wondering if those who pledged to participate are even aware of the start of competition or not...

The contest looks very disappointing because of the lack of participants and motivation...

If people were really interested, I was expecting atleast comments on the entries in this thread... but it looks like a deserted place....

We have like 8 days so I am hoping things will change.. I am hoping pledged participants were reached out and were reminded of the start of competition.
