1 Urdu couplets and shers with kothey

kothey(m): brothel

Description of kothey: 'Kothey' is an Urdu word referring to a small, often makeshift room or cubicle, typically used for storage, seclusion, or basic shelter in rural or modest urban settings. Unlike larger rooms like 'kamra,' it implies a confined, utilitarian space. Differs from 'ghar' by lacking the comfort and permanence of a full home. In Urdu poetry, it evokes isolation, as in verses depicting a lover's hidden retreat.
