Koh-e-Geran = Heavy mountain

Indeed, and Fareeda Khanum has also sung very well but in my humble opinion, Iqbal Bano has immortalized this ghazal. This is partly (only partly) due to the music composition (selection of notes (sur), melody (raag), modes (thaat) etc.) which appears better compared to the compositions sung by Mehdi Hassan and Fareeda Khanum.


My favorite sher:

and of-course the Maqta':

Laon Woh Tinke Kahin Se Ashiyane Ke Liye
Bijlian Betaab Hun Jin Ko Jalane Ke Liye


I should procure such straws for my nest from somewhere
For burning which the lightning may be restless
 
A particularly elevating stanza from Iqbal's Talu e Islam.

Khuda’ay Lam Yazil Ka Dast-E-Qudrat Tu, Zuban Tu Hai
Yaqeen Paida Kar Ae Ghafil Ke Maghloob-E-Guman Tu Hai
Pare Hai Charakh-E-Neeli Faam Se Manzil Musalman Ki
Sitare Jis Ki Gard-E-Rah Hon, Woh Karwan Tu Hai
Makan Fani, Makeen Ani, Azal, Tera, Abad Tera
Khuda Ka Akhiri Pegham Hai Tu, Javidan Tu Hai
Hina Band-E-Uroos-E-Lala Hai Khoon-E-Jigar Tera
Teri Nisbat Baraheemi Hai, Mamaar-E-Jahan Tu Hai
Teri Fitrat Ameen Hai Mumkanat-E-Zindagani Ki
Jahan Ke Johar-E-Muzmar Ka Goya Imtihan Tu Hai
Jahan-E-Aab-O-Gil Se Alam-E-Javed Ki Khatir
Nabuwat Sath Jis Ko Le Gyi Woh Armgahan Tu Hai
Ye Nukta Sargazhat-E-Millat-E-Baiza Se Hai Paida
Ke Aqwam-E-Zameen-E-Asia Ka Pasban Tu Hai
Sabaq Phir Parh Sadaqat Ka, Adalat Ka, Shujaat Ka
Liya Jaye Ga Tujh Se Kaam Dunya Ki Imamat Ka

Chionti Aur Auqab

Chionti
Main Paimaal-o-Khawar-o-Preshan-o-Dardmand
Tera Maqam Kyun Hai Sitaron Se Bhi Buland?

Auqab
Tu Rizq Apna Dhoondti Hai Khak-e-Rah Mein
Main Nuh Sipihr Ko Nahin Lata Nigah Mein!

The Ant And The Eagle

The Ant
I am so miserable and forlorn—
Why is your station loftier than the skies?

The Eagle
You forage about in dusty paths;
The nine heavens are as nothing to me!
 
The whole nature of man epitomized in five lines.

Nalinda Tere Uood Ka Har Taar Azal Se
Tu Jinse-e-Mohabbat Ka Khireedar Azal Se
Tu Peer-e-Sanam Khana-e-Asrar Azal Se
Mehnat Kash-o-Khoon Raiz-o-Kam Azaar Azal Se
Hai Rakab-e-Taqdeer-e-Jahan Teri Raza, Dekh!
