'description':
- 'lang': 'en'
  'text': 'This short but beautiful poem brings out an important component of `Allamah Iqbal’s philosophy, viz. that everything is ardently desirous of exhibiting itself. He calls this desire, and the efforts to achieve it, as the very source of real life. The climax is reached in the fifth verse according to which God Himself is anxious to manifest Himself to Man but it is only the human effort which would reveal Him to an individual, if the latter so desires and works for. This is a message to the Muslim youth to develop the philosophy of life in which the goal is unattainable. Outwardly, any effort at achieving such a goal appears futile but it is not so in reality. Really speaking it is not the goal but the longing which is never satisfied.'

"Khizar-i-Rah, Jawab-i-Khizar, Sahra Navarda" (The Traveler''s Guide, The Response of Khizar, Wandering in the Wilderness). Similarly an object is living only as long as it is in incessant search of its Creator and "activism" is that effort. It becomes lifeless if it loses these attributes and it will disappear once it finds the Creator.'
