2 Urdu couplets and shers with aamad

aamad(f): arrival

Description of aamad: Aamad is an Urdu word meaning "arrival" or "coming," often denoting the act of reaching a destination or entering a space. Unlike a simple entrance, it conveys a deliberate and rhythmic progression toward a central point, such as the musical sum in performance. Differs from an uthaan, as aamad emerged post-Mughal era with a structured body and tihai. In Kathak poetry, it evokes grandeur, symbolizing a dancer's commanding entry.
