1 Urdu couplets and shers with rangne

rangne(m): color

Description of rangne: Rangne is an Urdu/Hindi verb meaning to become colored or imbued with someone's hue, often metaphorically denoting deep romantic immersion or devotion. Unlike literal dyeing, which applies pigment externally to fabric, rangne evokes emotional transformation through love's influence. Differs from rangna, as it emphasizes the passive recipient yielding to the lover's essence. In poetry, it symbolizes souls merging, as in the iconic song "Mere Rang Mein Rangne Waali."
