Gul, meaning ‘flower’ in Urdu, is a symbol of beauty, love, and life. Like a flower that blooms for a short time, happy and sad moments also come and go. It reminds us of hope, strength, and the quiet power of gentle things. It teaches us to enjoy the present before it fades. Even when a gul withers, its fragrance stays in the air, just like memories. No matter how harsh the winds, a gul still finds a way to bloom again.
In this episode of Urdunama, we talk about gul, its meaning in poetry, and how it represents love, loss, and hope.
