2 Urdu couplets and shers with laazim

laazim: necessary

Description of laazim: Laazim is an Urdu adjective meaning necessary, requisite, compulsory, or indispensable, borrowed from Arabic via Persian. Unlike optional actions, it denotes what is imperative or inevitable. Differs from "v?jib," which specifically implies a religious obligation, while laazim is more general. In Urdu poetry, it often underscores fate's unyielding demands, as in Ghalib's verses on life's compulsions.
