Gum and Raah are both Farsi words. (They could _also_ be Arabic).

Don't have a dictionary on me; I'd recommend pulling up an Arabic dictionary and looking up the jidr (root) -- g-m-r (geem; meem; ra).

Other replies confirm it is Farsi root :)

Here's an interesting reference to gumrah (more like a single a though) -- a "glowing coal" :pic.twitter.com/BUFdoAIuGS

That sounds like a different word. AFAIK in Urdu at least, gum- is always a lost/unknown prefix (gumrah =lost, gumnaam= anonymous etc).
