दिया 'इक़बाल' ने हिन्दी मुसलमानों को सोज़ अपना
ये इक मर्द-ए-तन-आसाँ था तन-आसानों के काम आया
— Allama Iqbal
Meaning
Iqbal gave sorrow to Hindi Muslims; he was a man who was physically easy and useful to those who were easy-bodied.
Explanation
This powerful couplet by Allama Iqbal is a commentary on the nature of passion and inspiration. The poet suggests that the deep passion or 'saz' he gifted to the Hindi Muslims was directed towards something superficial. He implies that the object of this passion—the 'man of easy body'—was merely useful to those who were easily available or consumed, suggesting a critique of fleeting or shallow emotional attachments.
