3 Urdu couplets and shers with shareek

shareek(m): heaven, participant

Description of shareek: Shareek is an Urdu word meaning a partner, companion, or co-owner, often denoting someone who shares in responsibilities, profits, or journeys equally. Unlike a mere associate, it implies deep mutual commitment and trust in joint endeavors. Differs from "sathi," which suggests a casual fellow traveler without the binding equity of ownership. In Urdu poetry, shareek evokes a soulmate sharing life's joys and sorrows, as in Ghalib's verses on inseparable bonds.
