1 Urdu couplets and shers with aavaargi
aavaargi(f): wandering, aimlessness
Description of aavaargi: Aavaargi denotes a state of vagrancy, rootlessness, or wandering without purpose or home, often evoking existential displacement. Unlike stability, it captures the restless drift of those unmoored from society or self. Differs from mere travel, as it implies involuntary exile or inner turmoil. In Urdu poetry, it symbolizes the soul's nomadic longing, as in Faiz Ahmed Faiz's verses portraying love's banished wanderers.
1 / 1: aavaargi
hum apne sheher mein hote
to ghar gaye hote
this freezing night, this restless drifting
this burden of sleep
if i were in my town
i would have gone home
