Muhammad Iqbal - The Cloud on the mountainMuhammad Iqbal - The Cloud on the mountain
Work rating: Medium


Elevation bestows the sky`s nearness to my abode I am the mountain`s cloud, my skirt sprinkles roses Now the wilderness, now the rose garden is my abode City and wilderness are mine, ocean is mine, forest is mine If I want to return to some valley for the night The mountain`s verdure is my carpet of velvet Nature has taught me to be a pearl spreader To chant the camel song for the camel of the Beloved of Mercy To be the comforter of the dispirited farmer`s heart To be the elegance of the assembly of the garden`s trees I spread out over the face of the earth like the locks I get arranged and adorned by the breeze`s I tantalize the expecting eye from a distance As I pass silently over some habitation As I approach strolling towards a brook`s bank I endow the brook with ear rings of whirlpools I am the hope of the freshly grown field`s verdure I am the ocean`s offspring, I am nourished by the sun I gave ocean`s tumult to the mountain spring I charmed the birds into thrilling chants I pronounced "Rise" standing by the verdure`s head I conferred the taste for smile to the rose-bud By my benevolence farmers` huts on the mountain side Are converted into bed chambers of the opulent.
