‘Pahare’ is considered to be a form of folk poetry in Panjabi. This poetic genre is based on the consciousness of time.
Examples of this poetic genre are found only in the Guru Granth Sahib. Dividing day and night into four quarters each and expressing one’s feelings through them is the classical basis of this poetic genre.
To liberate the commoner from the superstition of believing in the auspiciousness or inauspiciousness of a time period and keeping in mind the importance of this unit of time in social life, the Gurus used this poetic genre to communicate their beliefs.
