1 Urdu couplets and shers with likh

likh: write

Description of likh: 'Likh' is a Sanskrit verbal root meaning primarily "to write," "to scratch," "to draw a line," or "to sketch." Unlike its secondary senses of scraping or pecking, the core usage denotes inscribing or portraying with precision. Differs from 'lekh' , as 'likh' emphasizes physical marking or artistic delineation. In poetic usage, it evokes etching emotions on the heart, as in classical verses portraying love's indelible strokes.
