1 Urdu couplets and shers with saa'at
saa'at(f): moment, time
Description of saa'at: Saa'at is an Urdu word meaning "hours" or "time," often denoting duration or specific moments in a day. Unlike waqt, which refers more broadly to general time or occasion, saa'at emphasizes measurable or clock-based intervals. It differs from pal, a fleeting instant, by implying extended periods. In Urdu poetry, saa'at evokes the passage of longing hours, as in Ghalib's verses on love's timeless wait.
1 / 1: saa'at
ik hosh ki saa'at kya kahiye
kuch yaad rahi kuch bhool gaye
when the wine-pourer handed me the cup
when the drinks were flowing freely
what to say of that moment of awareness
some things remembered, some forgotten
