The Image of Rain in Modern Uzbek Lyrics (Based on The Poetry of Shodmonqul Salom)

Аннотация

This article explores the poetic representation of the rain motif in modern Uzbek lyrical poetry, with a specific focus on the works of Shodmonqul Salom. Rain is not merely a natural occurrence in his poetry but symbolizes emotional depth, inner purification, and spiritual awakening. It serves as a metaphor for joy, longing, hope, regret, responsibility, and dreams. Particularly in Salom’s verse, rain becomes a lyrical tool to express inner transformation and emotional catharsis.
