The phrase "meghāḥ saranti" (मेघाः सरन्ति) comes from classical
Sanskrit texts, in particular the Mahabharata.
It literally translates as:
“The clouds move along” or “The clouds proceed/flow.”
- मेघाः (meghāḥ) – clouds (plural, nominative case)
- सरन्ति (saranti) – move, flow, proceed (third person plural, present tense indicative of the verb √sṛ “to move/go”)
This phrase is often used to describe the natural movement of clouds
across the sky, sometimes metaphorically conveying the passage
of time, events, or unfolding of scenes, as seen in verses like
Mahabharata 6.4.24:
“anuplavante meghāḥ ca tathā eva indradhanūṃṣi ca” – “Indeed, the
winds blow along, and similarly, clouds and birds also move along.”
Thus, "meghāḥ saranti" can be simply understood as:
“Clouds move along” – a poetic expression of the flow of nature or events.
“Clouds move along” – a poetic expression of the flow of nature or events.
