Word Meaning

समझावेंगे

samjhavenge

hiverb

Meaning

Will explain, counsel, or admonish (archaic future tense form).

Detailed Meaning

An archaic or classical future tense form of the causative verb 'samjhana', equivalent to modern standard Urdu-Hindi 'samjhayenge'. In Ghalib's couplet, the speaker ironically questions what possible counsel the preacher (naseh) could offer that would sway an intractable lover. The archaic inflection adds a touch of playful rhetorical defiance.

Etymology

From Sanskrit 'sambodhayati' (causes to understand/realize), through Prakrit, evolving into Hindavi/Old Urdu with the archaic future verbal suffix '-avenge'.

Usage

Frequent in early and classical Rekhta poetry where archaic dialectal future inflections like '-āvengē' were used naturally for meter and idiom.

Examples

What will they counsel a heart consumed by love?

Even if they try, what will they explain to the madman?
