Where 'Khaak' Rests, All Roads Meet
from Urdunama · host The Quint
Khaak means dust, humble, weightless, and ever-returning to the earth. It is where all journeys end and where every beginning quietly stirs. Khaak carries the memory of everything it has touched, walls once standing, feet once wandering, lives once lived. In Urdu poetry, khaak becomes a reminder of impermanence, of the fragility of glory, and of the beauty in humility. It speaks of both finality and renewal, of endings that feed beginnings. In this episode of Urdunama, we walk with khaak through the verses of poets who have found in it life’s deepest truths. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
