हुस्न · حُسن
Husn is beauty — but especially inner radiance and grace, not merely looks. It is the quality that makes someone unforgettable.
Arabic حسن, meaning beauty or goodness — the same root that gives the name Hasan. It entered Urdu as the formal, poetic term for beauty.
Husn is more elevated than khoobsurti, the plainer Hindi-Urdu word for good looks. Husn suggests beauty as a quality worth contemplating rather than simply noticing.
Its register is literary, so it signals that a song is reaching for ghazal tradition rather than everyday speech. Writers use it when they want gravity rather than compliment.
