2 Urdu couplets and shers with paiham

paiham(m): flowing, continuous

Description of paiham: Paiham is an Urdu adverb meaning constantly, continuously, successively, or one after another, often denoting relentless or unbroken action. Unlike sporadic occurrences, it implies an unceasing flow without interruption. Differs from mere repetition by emphasizing thick, close succession in events or efforts. In poetry, it evokes life's enduring flow, as in "jaavedaan, paiham rawaan / har dam jawaan hai zindagi," portraying eternal youthfulness.
