1 Urdu couplets and shers with nanhi

nanhi(f): tiny, small, miniscule

Description of nanhi: Nanhi is an Urdu word meaning "little one" or "tiny," often used endearingly for a small girl or child. Unlike larger terms like "bari" for big, it evokes delicacy and youthfulness. Differs from "chhoti," which is more neutral for small size, as nanhi carries affectionate, diminutive warmth. In poetry, it appears in verses like those of Faiz Ahmed Faiz, symbolizing fragile innocence and tender emotions.
