خرقہ خود بار است بر دوش فقیرچون صبا جز بوی گل سامان مگیر

English translation

To the mendicant*, even his patched-up garment is a burden. Like breeze you should carry nothing except the smell of roses.
* Faqir: In Iqbal's terminology, Faqr is not begging for lack of means, but a positive attitude of detachment towards the material world. One who serves God's purposes and obeys His laws and subjects himself to His will is what Iqbal would call a Faqir.)

Translated by Jamil Naqvi

Urdu translation

فقیر کے کندھے پر تو گدڑی بھی بوجھ ہے ؛ باد صبح کی مانند سوائے پھول کی خوشبو کے اور سامان نہ اٹھا۔
