2 Urdu couplets and shers with agarche

agarche(m): although

Description of agarche: Agarche is an Urdu conjunction meaning "although," "even though," or "albeit," used to introduce a concessive clause acknowledging a fact while contrasting it with another. Unlike lekin , which directly opposes ideas, agarche softens the concession with nuance. Differs from magar by emphasizing persistence despite circumstances. In poetry, as in "Agarche roz mera sabr aazmata hai, magar ye dariya mujhe tairna sikhaata hai," it heightens emotional tension.

1 / 2: agarche

agarche door ho tummeri nazron se

to kya, tum mere dil ke

aur bhi kareeb ho gaye ho

even though you are

far away from my sight

so what, you have come

even closer to my heart
