  'text': 'This is the first poem in Bang-i-Dara representing ‘Allamah Iqbal''s nationalistic sentiments. He laments lack of amity between the Muslims and Hindus, which were the two major nations in the Indian sub-continent. His pain was aggravated by the fact that this lack of amity was delaying the independence of India from Britain. Several poems on this subject will follow. These poems have created misunderstanding about the political ideology of ‘Allamah Iqbal. Opinion has been expressed by some responsible persons that he was initially an Indian nationalist and was only swept away by the "separatist ideology of the Muslim League" into what the Indian Hindus call "communalism". This opinion betrays complete ignorance of the works and thought of ‘Allamah Iqbal as well as the basics of Islam. | Allamah Iqbal loved India and its natural beauty and had respect for its heroes and heroines 1. He wanted to establish Hindu-Muslim amity to hasten India''s independence from Britain. However, his political ideology was not the Western style democratic system but pan-Islamism.'
