1 Urdu couplets and shers with nain

nain(m): eyes

Description of nain: Nain is an Urdu word meaning eyes, often poetically referring to the captivating or beautiful eyes. Unlike common terms like "ankh" which denote the physical organ generically, nain evokes emotional depth and allure. It differs from "nazron" by emphasizing singular, mesmerizing gazes rather than plural looks. In literature, poets like Ghalib use nain to symbolize love's enchanting pull, as in verses praising beloved's eyes.
