Arabic · noun · Iqbal's Emblems

Sayd

सैद
said sayd
Meaning

Prey or quarry, the game pursued in the hunt.

How Iqbal uses it

Sayd marks the object of pursuit, both literal game and the metaphorical quarry the soul hunts. In the falcon imagery the noble bird is defined by the high prey it strikes, just as the lover is defined by the beloved he seeks.
