2 Urdu couplets and shers with auron

auron(m): others

Description of auron: Auron is an Urdu pronoun meaning "of others" or "belonging to others," used to denote possession by multiple people excluding the speaker. Unlike hamara , which includes the speaker in the group, auron strictly excludes them from ownership. It differs from unka by emphasizing alienation or otherness in formal or emphatic contexts. In Urdu poetry, auron evokes longing for what belongs to rivals, as in Ghalib's verses on love's inaccessibility.
