Above couplet is by renowned poet Mohammad Iqbal ( also penned 'Saare jahan se achcha hindustan hamara'). He was so dissatisfied by the politician that he is comparing them to the owl. He said that only a single person like that was enough to ruin the country but they all are same he wonders what would happen to the nation.
