My idea in preparing them was just to help people understand the technicalities involved behind ghazals and other types of Urdu poetry.

Glad to see you here, I was wondering if anybody was actually reading these articles. By the way, this exercise is not for poets like you :-P Someone who can write this: aarzoo dil meiN jal rahii hogi hijr ki raat Dhal rahii hogii maiN sitaare bhi gin chuka huuNga subah wo aaNkh mal rahii hogi! can not participate in beginners exercises such as this one. Jokes aside, you are on the ball! dunyaa is indeed 2-2 and not 1-1-2 though I wonder (and I'm so not sure about this one) whether this talaffuz "duniyaa" is an accepted one. The other words are just fine. Next installment of the series is ready, I'll be posting it later today or over the weekend. Thank you for visiting it and commenting on it. aray waah Mohib bhai!

Nice series you have on technicalities of Ghazals, I look forward to more such posts. Let me try to guess weights for the words you mention: duniyaa: 2-2 (or 1-1-2?) mausam: 2-2 fazaa: 1-2 gardish: 2-2 khoobsoorat: 2-1-2-2 ye jo Tanhaa hai ise kuch na kaho
