Abstract
This study aims to analyse and evaluate the various language styles in the Sufi Kalam, exploring their significance, artistic value, and impact on the overall meaning and aesthetic. In this research, the researchers have used a descriptive-qualitative approach to analyse the data, which involved a systematic examination of the content to identify patterns, themes, and meanings. Figurative language in lyrics has two distinct types of meaning: denotative and connotative. The researchers carefully analysed Kalam's lyrics, examining every line and phrase in detail. Through a close examination of figurative language, the researchers sought to uncover both denotative and connotative meanings and describe the Kalam. The study focuses on 16 different sorts of literary devices i.e., rhyme, parable, allegory, parallelism, idioms, metaphors, symbolism, exclamation, imagery, personification, hyperbole, synecdoche, theme, allusion, oxymoron, analogies, and so on. The song “Tu Kuja Man Kuja” explores a deep desire for spiritual connection and guidance. It expresses a sense of longing and seeks comfort in times of need. The lyrics aim to find inner peace and unity with a higher power, revealing a fundamental search for purpose, belonging, and spiritual growth.
