A new and modern collection of English translations of poetry by Muhammad Iqbal. Considered by many to be the last of the great classical Persian poets, and the first of the modern Muslim philosophers, Iqbal's work has been pivotal in anti-colonial movements and revolutions throughout the Muslim world in the 20th century.
This collection brings together some of his most beautiful and powerful Urdu poems taken from Bang-e Dra (Call of the Marching Bell) and Bal-e Jibreel (Gabriel Wing), as well as some of his finest Persian ghazals from Zabur-e Ajam (Persian Psalms).
In both Urdu and English.
