اترا تھا غریبانہ کنارے آکر
Mir Taqi Mir (1723–1810)
Rubai metreہزج — شجرۂ اخرب
Every line arooz scans is in the akhrab family (opening مفعول). Each line is read against the rubai’s 24 awzan; the wazn arooz found is set under the line.
arooz scans 2 of 4 lines
اترا تھا غریبانہ کنارے آکر
Wazn: مفعول مفاعیل مفاعیلن فِع
لب خشک موا سو نورچشم حیدرarooz could not scan this line
تر حلق دم آب سے اس کا نہ ہواarooz could not scan this line
اے آب فرات خاک تیرے سر پر
Wazn: مفعول مفاعلن مفاعیلن فِع
A small circle marks a line arooz could not fit to any of the rubai’s 24 awzan. That is a limit of arooz, not of the poet: a word may be missing from arooz’s dictionary, the text may leave an izafat unwritten, or the line may use a licence arooz does not yet model.
