1 Urdu couplets and shers with ubhar

ubhar(m): emerge, protrude

Description of ubhar: Ubhar is an Urdu word meaning to emerge, rise, or protrude, often describing something coming to the surface or gaining prominence. Unlike dhalna , it conveys upward or outward movement. Differs from ubhrao , as it emphasizes surfacing rather than mere expansion. In Urdu poetry, it evokes the moon's ubhar on the horizon, symbolizing hope's gentle ascent.
