1 Urdu couplets and shers with cheen

cheen(m): snatch, pull

Description of cheen: Cheen is an Urdu word meaning a wrinkle, crease, or fold, often referring to a mark left on skin or fabric after pressure. Unlike a deep scar, it is a temporary indentation that fades with time. Differs from "lakir," which denotes a straight line or streak, as cheen implies a curved or gathered fold. In Urdu poetry, it evokes the delicate creases of a beloved's brow furrowed in longing.
