Na tha kuch to Khuda tha, kuch na hota to Khuda hota
Duboya mujhko hone ne, na hota main to kya hota ?
.
Huaa jab gham se yoon behis to gham kya sar ke katne ka
Na hota gar juda tan se to zaanoon par dhara hota
Na hota gar juda tan se to zaanoon par dhara hota
.
Huee muddat ke 'Ghalib' mar gaya par yaad aata hai
Wo har ek baat pe kehana, ke yoon hota to kya hota ?
Wo har ek baat pe kehana, ke yoon hota to kya hota ?
.
Mirza Ghalib
.
Key to Urdu words: doboya = to drown, behis = shocked/stunned, zaanooN = knee , muddat = a long period
.
