तसव्वुर-हा

Meaning

imaginations, visions, or mental reflections (plural)

Detailed Meaning

Formed by appending the Persian plural suffix '-ha' to the Arabic noun 'tasawwur', the word denotes an abundance or multiplicity of thoughts, visions, and mental conceptions. In this couplet, it refers to the obsessive and pervasive imaginings of Majnun, which exert such an intense sway that even the pupil of a wild gazelle reflects Laila's facial mole.

Etymology

Arabic 'tasawwur' (imagining, picturing) combined with the Persian plural suffix '-ha'.

Usage

In classical Urdu poetry, Persian pluralization like '-ha' is often adopted to convey an overwhelming multiplicity or poetic grandiosity of emotional states.
