2 Urdu couplets and shers with vagarna

vagarna(m): otherwise

Description of vagarna: The Urdu word vagarna means "otherwise" or "or else," functioning as a conjunction and adverb to introduce an alternative consequence. It expresses what would happen if a condition is not met. Unlike simple negation, vagarna presents a contrasting outcome or different scenario that follows logically. Differs from synonyms like "varna" through its compound structure, carrying slightly more emphatic weight in classical poetry. In literary contexts, vagarna appears frequently in Urdu
