1 Urdu couplets and shers with sadkon

sadkon(m): streets, roads

Description of sadkon: The Urdu word sadkon means streets or roads, referring to urban pathways and thoroughfares. Unlike English "street," sadkon carries cultural and poetic resonance, often symbolizing struggle, community, and everyday life in South Asian contexts. Differs from mere physical infrastructure, sadkon embodies social narratives and human experience. In literature and music, sadkon appears metaphorically—representing hardship, resilience, and grassroots identity, as seen in songs addressing poverty and societal challenges.
