MEaning of

What does this mean (from a poem)

The air is still like dust of grated diamonds

Re: MEaning of

you know writers love to do that. in urdu its called "tashbeeh"

I think there has to be some thing about sun or light or brightness in same context.

Re: MEaning of

**urdu meN aisa ek gaanaa thaa:

jhilmil sitaaroN kaa aangan hogaa**

Re: MEaning of

yaar whats "air"'s stillness got to do with grated diamonds.

I think it means more calmness but if you really want the meaning you have to write the poem here so we can understand what the poem is about.

Re: MEaning of

I think the word "still" shows that the poet is talking about someone or something from the past.
