iqbal's poetry

1. KharadmandoN se kya poochooN ke meri ibtada kya hai
   Ke mein is fiqr mein rehtaa hooN mera intehaa kya hai
   
   
2. Khudi ko kar buland itna ke har taqdeer se pehle
   Khuda bande se khud pooche, bataa teri razaa kya hai

i.e.:
how do i ask the intellectuals where my beginning lies?
i am constantly in a dilemma wondering what my end will be.
make your self so strong that before every destiny -
the lord himself comes and asks - tell me, what is it you desire?
