1 Urdu couplets and shers with mohalle

mohalle(m): neighborhood

Description of mohalle: Mohalle is an Urdu word meaning a neighborhood or locality, typically a closely-knit residential area in South Asian urban settings. Unlike expansive cities, it evokes intimate, community-bound spaces where residents share daily life and social ties. Differs from a Western suburb by its organic, alley-lined structure fostering strong interpersonal bonds. In poetry, it symbolizes communal romance, as in songs like "Tere Mohalle" where lovers lose hearts in its lanes.
