Iqbal became prominence since 1899, when he recited "Nalay e Yatem" at the annual meeting of Anjuman-e-Himayat-e-Islam, Lahore. The poems he wrote up to 1905, imbibe patriotism that includes the "Tarana-e-Hind" (popularly known as "Saare Jahan Se Achcha"). The "Bang-e-Dara" (1924) is a collection of Urdu poetry written in three distinct phases of Iqbals life, In his early work he also wrote on most of the Indian iconic personalities such as "Rama Tirtha", "Guru Nanak" and "Rama".
