2 Urdu couplets and shers with baras

baras(m): years, year

Description of baras: 'Baras' is an Urdu word meaning rain or rainfall, often evoking abundance or seasonal downpours. Unlike sporadic showers that come and go quickly, baras implies a steady, generous flow of water from the sky. Differs from 'boond' which denotes a single raindrop, baras captures the collective essence of precipitation. In Urdu poetry, it symbolizes renewal and divine blessing, as in verses celebrating monsoon baras washing away summer's heat.
