Bahr: The Many Meanings of the Ocean in Urdu Poetry | Urdunama
The sea has a way of finding its place in poetry. Sometimes it's calm, sometimes turbulent, and sometimes it becomes a way of talking about the human heart.This week on Urdunama, we're exploring bahr, the Urdu word for the sea or ocean. It can also symbolize vastness and depth. Through the poetry of Allama Iqbal, Mirza Ghalib, Josh Malihabadi and Muneer Niyazi, we look at how poets have used the image of the ocean to talk about everything from restlessness and longing to distance and detachment.
Starting with bahr, we're kicking off a mini-series on Urdunama, turning our attention to the world around us and the natural elements we often take for granted. And what better place to begin than the ocean?
Tune in as we explore what bahr means, and all that the ocean holds.
