couplet

GBK English to Hindi Art/Literary Poetry & Literature
Definition from The Poetry Archive :
A couplet is a stanza (or even a poem) consisting of two lines. These need not rhyme, nor be the same length, but can be. If there is no enjambment at the end of the second line, it can be called a closed couplet (the opposite being an open couplet), especially if this is a recurring pattern.
Example sentences:
Rhyming couplets are one of the simplest rhyme schemes in poetry. (Wikipedia)
Elaine Feinstein's 'Urban Lyric' has an individual aspect of the scene in each couplet, each of which is linked, however, to the adjacent aspects. (The Poetry Archive)
Elementary students rhyme, write couplets, make and paint clay pumpkins, and write pumpkin poems during a reading lesson about The Legend of Spookley the Square Pumpkin. (suite101.com)

Definition from own experience or research:
द्विपंक्तिक पद्य
Example sentences:
ये प्रणय प्रेम गीत भी दार्शनिक प्रसन्न भाव के साथ द्विपदी के रूप में गाए जाते हैं। रावैन में ये गीत लामणी कहलाते हैं और आमतौर समूह में नृत्य के साथ गाए जाते हैं। (www.ghughuti.com/)
शृंगार रसावतार महाकवि जयदेव की निम्न द्विपदी की तरह की रचनाओं ने भी संभवतः वर्तमान दोहा के जन्म की पृष्ठभूमि तैयार करने में योगदान किया हो. (kavita.hindyugm.com/)
