2 Urdu couplets and shers with nikhat
nikhat(f): fragrance, aroma
Description of nikhat: Nikhat is an Urdu word meaning fragrance, scent, or aroma, often evoking a delicate and pleasing perfume. Unlike heavier odors that overwhelm, nikhat subtly lingers, enhancing the senses with its lightness. Differs from "khushboo," which denotes a broader, more pervasive smell, nikhat implies refined elegance. In Urdu poetry, it symbolizes elusive beauty, as in verses where a beloved's nikhat captivates the lover's soul.

ke jhonka bahaar ka
the same fragrance, same delight
the same charm and allure
was it your arrival or that of
the gentle breeze of spring
