What does it mean to 'dance' in Urdu poetry?
In this episode of Urdunama, Fabeha Syed explores Raqs, the movements, the madness, and the magic behind it. It's the kind that moves your heart, your soul, even the world around you.
We look at the ashaar of Majrooh Sultanpuri, Saghar Khayyami, and Abbas Tabish, and see how they turn dance into metaphor: the joy of little steps, the madness that takes over, the wild energy that can’t be contained. From playful, innocent moments to powerful, overwhelming ones, raqs shows us how poetry captures life in motion.
