1 Urdu couplets and shers with baazoo

baazoo(m): arms

Description of baazoo: Baazoo is an Urdu word meaning "arm," referring to the upper limb of the human body or any similar appendage. Unlike more general terms like "haath" , it specifically denotes the arm from shoulder to elbow or wrist. Differs from "dast" , as baazoo emphasizes the longer, stronger part enabling reach and strength. In Urdu poetry, it symbolizes power, as in couplets evoking a lover's embracing arms.
