A chaupai (चौपाई) is a quatrain verse of Indian poetry, especially medieval Hindi poetry, that uses a metre of four syllables. Famous chaupais include those of poet-saint Tulsidas (used in his classical text ''Ramcharitamanas'' and poem ''Hanuman Chalisa'') and the Sikh prayer Chaupai. Chaupai is identified by a syllable count 16/16, counted with a value of 1 in case of Hrasva (short sounding letter) and 2 in case of Dhirga (long sounding letter). ==Examples== Some of the famous 40 ''chaupais'' (known as "chalisa"); *Hanuman Chalisa *Ganesh Chalisa *Durga Chalisa *Shiv Chalisa 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chaupai (poetry)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
