English title: A LETTER FROM EUROPE

Translations
ہم خوگر محسوس ہيں ساحل کے خريداراک بحر پر آشوب و پر اسرار ہے رومي
تو بھي ہے اسي قافلہء شوق ميں اقبالجس قافلہء شوق کا سالار ہے رومي
اس عصر کو بھي اس نے ديا ہے کوئي پيغام؟کہتے ہيں چراغ رہ احرار ہے رومي

جواب

کہ نبايد خورد و جو ہمچوں خراںآہوانہ در ختن چر ارغواں
ہر کہ کاہ و جو خورد قرباں شودہر کہ نور حق خورد قرآں شود
