3 Urdu couplets and shers with guzri

guzri: spent, passed

Description of guzri: The Urdu word guzri means "passed" or "gone by," typically referring to time that has elapsed or moments that have departed. It carries a poetic melancholy, evoking nostalgia for experiences no longer present. Unlike "bitaa," which simply denotes completion, guzri emphasizes the bittersweet passage of time with emotional resonance. Differs from "kat gaya," which suggests time was spent or endured, guzri conveys a sense of loss and longing. In Urdu
