In the kingdom of the night, the messenger of the day arrived, and in exile, he shone brightly in the forgotten homeland.

This powerful couplet speaks of profound change. The 'kingdom of night' represents times of struggle, darkness, or despair, while the 'messenger of day' symbolizes knowledge, enlightenment, or hope. Allama Iqbal suggests that even in the deepest exile or difficulty, the arrival of truth or a visionary spirit can illuminate a forgotten homeland, bringing it back to life.
