1 Urdu couplets and shers with itraati

itraati(f): flaunt, redolent

Description of itraati: Itrati , derived from the Urdu root itrana meaning to swagger or exude fragrance, refers to something flauntingly aromatic, redolent, or proudly strutting with allure. Unlike mere scents that fade passively, itraati evokes a bold, lingering perfume that captivates and asserts presence. Differs from plain khushboo by implying vivacious display, like a blooming flower parading its charm. In Urdu poetry, ittraati roses sway intoxicatingly in gardens, symbolizing lovers' enchanting vanity.

1 / 1: itraati

is seena-e-veeraan meinkhilaaye na kabhi phool

kyon baagh pe itraati rahi

baad-e-saba hai

in this desolate heart

having never bloomed any flowers

why does the fragrant morning breeze

show off in the garden?
