2 Urdu couplets and shers with raahat
raahat(f): comfort, ease
Description of raahat: Raahat is an Urdu word meaning comfort, relief, or respite from distress or hardship. Unlike sukoon, which denotes inner peace or tranquility of the soul, raahat emphasizes physical or temporary alleviation of pain. It differs from aaraam by focusing on restoration after suffering rather than mere rest or leisure. In Urdu poetry, raahat evokes sighs of longed-for ease amid life's turmoil, as in Ghalib's verses seeking divine relief.
1 / 2: raahat
rahatein aur bhi hain
wasl ki raahat ke siva
there are other sorrows
in this life than love’s longing
there are other comforts too
than the union with the beloved

milti hai zindagi mein
ye raahat kabhi kabhi
oh heart, who is ever granted
this grace of restlessness?
life bestows such ease
only now and then
