1 Urdu couplets and shers with saazish

saazish(f): conspiracy

Description of saazish: Saazish is an Urdu word meaning a secret plot, conspiracy, or intrigue devised by individuals or groups for nefarious purposes. Unlike overt rebellion, which involves open defiance, saazish thrives on hidden machinations and deception. Differs from mere scheming by implying coordinated betrayal often with political undertones. In Urdu poetry, it evokes shadowy alliances, as in Faiz Ahmed Faiz's verses depicting lovers ensnared in treacherous saazish of fate.
