Sher on Shokhi

Playfulness is a typical

quality of the beloved and it makes her all the more romantic and appealing. In other words, a beloved without some amount of coquetry or playfulness would not be so romantic. You may like to go through these examples that personify a beloved as one who is now bouncy, now mischievous, now playful, and now full of light wit.

jo kahā maiñ ne ki pyaar aatā hai mujh ko tum par

hañs ke kahne lagā aur aap ko aatā kyā hai

laughing, she inquired when, I said "I love you"

is there anything else at all that you know to do

jo kaha main ne ki pyar aata hai mujh ko tum par

hans ke kahne laga aur aap ko aata kya hai

laughing, she inquired when, I said "I love you"

is there anything else at all that you know to do
