When ‘Dariya’ Reflected the Sky, I Saw Myself 20:13

vor 7 Tagen20:13

20:13

Dariya means river—a vast, flowing force that carries more than just water. It carries time, memory, silence, and song. A dariya can be gentle or wild, still or storming, but it always moves forward—like longing, like grief, like life itself. In Urdu poetry, dariya becomes a metaphor for emotions too deep for words, for generosity without end, and for the quiet strength it takes to keep flowing, no matter the weight it bears. In this episode of Urdunama , we wade through the poetic depths of Dariya , exploring how poets have turned rivers into mirrors of the soul. Join us as we trace its current through verses that speak of love, loss, vastness, and the beauty of surrender. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices…

In the Silence of 'Aab', Everything Moved 16:06

16:06

Aab means water, but in Urdu, it means so much more. It is life in motion, purity that flows, the quiet resilience of a stream shaping stone. Aab is not just liquid, it is legacy. It reflects the sky, carries the weight of time, and remembers every path it has carved. In poetry, aab becomes a symbol of honour, emotion, and endless movement, of tears unshed and rivers unspoken. It quenches not just thirst, but longing. In this episode of Urdunama , we follow the currents of aab through the verses of poets who’ve seen water as witness, healer, and metaphor.

In the Quiet of 'Amn', Hearts Found Home 11:28

vor 21 Tagen11:28

11:28

Amn means peace—a soft hush after the storm, a breath that finally lands, a silence that doesn’t weigh heavy but heals. It is the stillness between heartbeats, the warmth in a world often too cold. Amn doesn’t demand attention; it settles gently, quietly shifting the shape of things. It is both a personal refuge and a collective longing—a space where conflict ceases and compassion begins. In a world carved by noise and unrest, amn becomes the poetry of presence, of healing, of hope. In this episode of Urdunama , we trace the essence of amn through the verses of poets who’ve written about peace—not just as absence of war, but as presence of understanding, softness, and unity. Join us as we listen closely to the language of calm, and the dreams it dares to hold. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices…

When 'Saraab' Looked Like Hope on the Horizon 20:41

vor 28 Tagen20:41

20:41

Saraab means mirage—a vision shimmering in the distance, beautiful but unreachable. It is the illusion that pulls us forward, even when the heart knows it may vanish. Saraab is the hope we chase in the heat of longing, the dream dressed as truth, the promise that disappears when held too tightly. Yet within every saraab lies a story—of desire, of pursuit, of learning to let go. It teaches us that not everything we see is meant to be found, and not every journey leads where we thought it would. In this episode of Urdunama , we take you on a journey of revival through the words of poets and their timeless verses, exploring how poetry breathes new life into emotions, memories, and dreams.

vor 5 weeks16:03

16:03

Khayal means thought—a fleeting whisper of the mind, soft as mist, yet powerful enough to stir oceans within. It is where memory meets imagination, where reality bends gently into reverie. Khayal doesn’t follow rules; it flows, drifts, pauses, and returns when you least expect it. It is the beginning of poetry, the seed of longing, the silence between words. In khayal, we find not just what we think—but who we are when we dare to feel.

When 'Vahm' Painted Truths in Shadows 17:38

vor 7 weeks17:38

17:38

Vahm means illusion, a flicker of doubt that blurs the line between what is and what we imagine. It is the shadow that dances just outside certainty, the echo of a thought that may never be real—but feels all too true. Vahm doesn’t arrive with answers; it tiptoes in with questions, unsettling and soft. It weaves stories out of silence, painting fears where there may be none. Yet within vahm lies the delicate beauty of perception—the way we see, feel, and sometimes misread the world. In this episode of Urdunama , we take you on a journey of revival through the words of poets and their timeless verses, exploring how poetry breathes new life into emotions, memories, and dreams.

Sabaq means lesson. Like ink etched into memory, sabaq symbolizes the turning point between who we were and who we are becoming. It is the quiet reckoning after chaos, the clarity that follows confusion, and the inner voice that whispers truth when the noise fades. Sabaq doesn't shout—it stays, lingers, and shapes us. Wherever sabaq settles, perspective blooms, and from reflection, new directions emerge.
