Stars, and beyond the stars other worlds
Love faces more trials
Not lifeless this speckled sky
Hundreds of caravans trail here
Earth’s scent and shade are not enough
There are many gardens, many nests
If one home is lost, why grieve
There are other vales wailing
You are a falcon
Fly
Gone the days I was alone in the crowd
Stars, my confidants
--Iqbal, translated by Rafiq Kathwari
