1 Urdu couplets and shers with khayaabaan

khayaabaan(m): flower bed, garden

Description of khayaabaan: Khayaabaan , an Urdu word derived from Arabic, means a tree-lined avenue, boulevard, or street, often evoking elegance and greenery. Unlike narrower paths like rasta or raah, it denotes a wide, planned thoroughfare suitable for promenades. Differs from sadak, a general road, by implying sophistication and landscaping. In Urdu poetry, it symbolizes life's journey or romantic strolls, as in verses depicting lovers wandering shaded boulevards.
