ने मोहरा बाक़ी ने मोहरा-बाज़ी
जीता है 'रूमी' हारा है 'राज़ी'
— Allama Iqbal
Meaning
is that the remaining piece/pawn has won the game of pawns, and 'Rumi' has lost to 'Razi'.
Explanation
This powerful couplet explores the philosophical difference between surrender and struggle. The 'game' here is life itself. 'Raazi' represents the compliant, the one who accepts fate and submits to circumstances. 'Rumi,' however, represents the assertive, the independent spirit who fights for his right. Allama Iqbal suggests that true victory is not found in passive acceptance, but in the continuous, passionate effort to define one's own destiny.
