Interesting Information on lan-taraanii
When words of other languages entered Urdu, their forms considerably changed. But the one word whose journey has been the most astonishing is "Lan Tarani". In Urdu, it means self-aggrandizement, bragging, or boasting (Shaikhi Marna). The word originally came from Arabic and has attained a proverbial status in Urdu. In fact, it is an Arabic phrase and a Qur'anic allusion. When Prophet Moses reached the top of Mount Sinai and implored the Lord, "O God, make me see You." Then a voice from the invisible echoed ‘Lan Tar Anni’, that is, you will never be able to see me. This allusion has been extensively used in Urdu poetry. In Allama Iqbal's poetry, the phrase is found in many places in its original Qur'anic meaning. Other poets, too, have used it in its original sense, but it’s worth noting how the term came to be used for bragging and self-aggrandizement. A couplet by Baqar Mehdi: in KHatiibo.n kaa tilism-e-lan-taraanii to.D de is hujuum-e-be-navaayaa.n me.n ko.ii aisaa to hai
