My longing comes to my lips as a supplication of mine Oh God! May like a shining candle be the life of mine Lab pe aati hai dua ban ke tamanna miri zindagi shamma ki suurat ho Xudaaya miri In October 2019, a headmaster of a government-run primary school in Pilibhit, Uttar Pradesh, India, was suspended by the district education authorities following complaints by two Hindu nationalist organizations ( Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal) that the song, which was being recited in the school's morning assembly, was a " madrasa prayer." Ali was later reinstated but transferred to another school. The prayer has also been interpreted by an all-women's American bluegrass music band, Della Mae, which toured Islamabad and Lahore in Pakistan in 2012. Even earlier, the prayer was broadcast by All India Radio, Lucknow, a few months after Iqbal's death in 1938. The Imam of the Jama Masjid, Delhi, Muhibullah Nadwi, recited it as a boy in an English-medium primary school in India in the 1940s. The song has long been sung in the private The Doon School in Dehradun, India, in a secular morning assembly ritual. The dua is recited in morning school assembly almost universally in Pakistan, and in Urdu-medium schools in India. " Lab Pe Aati Hai Dua" ( Urdu: لب پہ آتی ہے دعا also known as " Bachche Ki Dua"), is a duʿā or prayer, in Urdu verse authored by Muhammad Iqbal in 1902.
