Are there any other words in any language that describe a sort of beautiful sadness, something between weariness and nostalgia, between ennui and saudade that feels like an ache? - Quora
Although poignant means deep sadness or regret, such sadness or regret may come from weariness or nostalgia....weariness and nostalgia can result in deep sadness and regret. Poignancy can ache. It can create a state of ennui, or the longing and melancholy of saudade. Whenever I seek out a word to describe what you are speaking to without veering off into another language for the sake of understanding, I use poignant, or deeply poignant.
