This research paper explores the etymology concept, meaning, and expression of word resistance. This paper focuses on how Punjabi poets used literary language to express the exploitation, social injustice, political oppression, and class distinction. Punjabi poetry has always served as a powerful medium of voice to marginalized communities and fostering collective consciousness. Through thematic and textual analysis of selected instances of Punjabi poetry, the research investigates how resistance transforms from personal sufferings to collective struggle. This paper further examines how cultural identity, folk tradition, and revolutionary thought shape the nature of resistance in Punjabi literary discourse. The study concludes that Punjabi poetry serves as a medium of expression for common folk since beginning from Baba Fareed tills to date. This paper elaborates the above themes with suitable examples.
