In poetry, a 'stanza' is a unit within a larger poem. (The term means "room" in Italian.) In modern poetry, the term is often equivalent with strophe; in popular vocal music, a stanza is typically referred to as a "verse" (as distinct from the refrain, or "chorus").

In traditional English-language poems, stanzas can be identified and grouped together because they share a rhyme scheme or a fixed number of lines (as in distich/couplet, tercet, quatrain, cinquain/quintain, sestet). In much modern poetry, stanzas may be arbitrarily presented on the printed page because of publishing conventions that employ such features as white space or punctuation.

EDIT

IN BRIEF: A group of lines forming one of the sections of a poem or song.

If your asking a question about something paranormal from what you heard elsewhere, the word stanza was probably used to describe a room. A lot of cancer treatment centers use the term stanza for a room.
