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

DI.. thanks a lot for sharing this naat/dua with us...its one of my favourite naat,... infact shayri ke liye mera jo passion hai, woh isi naat se shuru hua tha,

@ Danny ji thanks for the link...jab bhi sunti huun, dil bhar aata hai,...I don't have words , how i feel about this naat/dua....itna hi kahungi....I just feel every word of it....

Thanks once again....

Na Tu Zameen Ke Liye Hai Na Aasmaan Ke Liye
Jahaan Hai Tere Liye, Tu Nahin Jahan Ke Liye

Ye Akal-o-Dil Hai Sharar Shola-e-Mohabbat Ke
Wo Khaar-o-Khas Ke Liye Hai, Ye Nestaan Ke Liye

Maqaam-e-Parwarish-e-Aah Wa Naala Hai Ye Chaman
Na Sair-e-Gul Ke Liye Hai Na Aashiyaan Ke Liye

Rahega Raavi-o-Neel-o-Faraat Mein Kab Tak?
Tera Safeena Ke Hai Bahr-e-Bekaraan Ke Liye

Nishaan-e-Raah Dikhaate The Jo Sitaron Ko
Taras Gaye Hain Kisi Mard-e-Raahdan Ke Liye

Nigah Buland, Sukhan Dilnawaaz, Jaan Pur Soz
Yahi Hai Rakht-e-Safar Meer-e-Kaarwaan Ke Liye

Mention not, Bitiya...! The pleasure is all mine...! Waise my special thank goes to Shimul sahibaa who in her immense kindness presented this awesome naat to me and it was love at first sight...!

With blessings

Here's one fantastic ghazal of Iqbal Ji with english translation...!


Sitaaron se aage jahaaN aur bhi hain
Abhi ishq ke imtihaaN aur bhi hain

Beyond the stars are yet other worlds
There are yet more trials of love ahead !

Tahi zindagi se nahin ye fazayen
Yahaan saikaron karwaaN aur bhi hain

These extensive aspects do not exist in the void of lower life
There are hundreds of other caravans here!

Kanat na kar alam-e-rang-o-bu par
Chaman aur bhi, aashiyaaN aur bhi hain

Do not be content with this world of colour and scent
There are yet other gardens; other nests!

Agar kho gaya ek nasheman to kya gam
Maqaamat-e-aah-o-fugaaN aur bhi hain

Why grieve if this one nest is lost?
There are yet more places for clamour and complaint !

Tu shahin hai parwaaz hai kaam tera
Tere saamne asmaaN aur bhi hain

You are the royal eagle, flying is your pursuit
Before you are yet other firmaments !

Iss roz-o-shab mein ulajh kar na rah jaa
Ke tere zamin-o-makaaN aur bhi hain

Do not lose yourself by being entangled in this day and night
You have yet another Time and yet other spaces !

Gaye din ke tanhaa tha main anjuman main
Yahaan ab mere razdaaN aur bhi hain

The days are gone when I was alone in this gathering:
Now here I have confidants as well!

Ps Translation is not mine...!
