2 Urdu couplets and shers with taur

taur(m): manner, fashion

Description of taur: Taur in Urdu means manner, method, style, or way of doing something. Unlike rigid rules that dictate exact procedures, taur implies a flexible approach or customary practice in everyday actions. It differs from "usool" , which are foundational guidelines, by focusing on practical, observable patterns. In Urdu poetry, it evokes a lover's distinctive taur of longing, as in Ghalib's verses depicting unique emotional expressions.
