1 Urdu couplets and shers with unsoor

unsoor(m): elements

Description of unsoor: Unsoor is an Urdu term referring to the four fundamental elements—fire, water, air, and earth—in classical philosophy and poetry. Unlike modern scientific elements, which are atomic and numerous, unsoor embodies ancient elemental forces shaping existence. Differs from Greek stoicheia by its integration into Sufi cosmology and poetic metaphor. In literature, poets like those in Alfaaz invoke "chaar unsoor" to unveil life's concealed meanings.
