in his salam karoRoN durood, alaHazrat writes:

ﻼﺋيں تو يه دَوسرا دُوسرا جس كو ملا​

كوشك عرش و دنا تم په كروڑوں درود​

dosara دَوسرا with a zabar means : in two worlds ?

doosra دُوسرا with a pesh means : another; second; like

they are both spelt the same but two different meanings. this is another example of alaHazrat's mastery of urdu language.

so the verse to my undertanding means : will they bring another from the two worlds like you (Ya RasulAllah sallAllahu 'alaihi wasallam)

don't know what second verse means!

from the same poem, alaHazrat says:

ايسوں كو نعمت ﻛﻫﻼﺆ دودﻫ كے شربت ﭙﻼؤ​

ايسوں كو ايسي غذا تم په كروڑوں درود​

pilaao means to give someone to drink
pulaao is the indian rice dish​

and both words are spelt the same.​

in jannah, we will eat and drink whatever we wish. hence, it can be read pilaao or pulaao.​

another example of alaHazrat using a word that can have two or more meanings but spelt the same and pronounced differently.​
