Na Tha kucH to Khuda tha, Kuch na hota to Khuda hota

Mirza Ghalib:

Na Tha kucH to Khuda tha, Kuch na hota to Khuda hota
dubooYa mujhKo hoNi ne, na hota maiN to kya hota

hua jub Gam se Yun beHis, to Gum kya sar ke katNe ka
gar juda na hota tan sE, to zannon pur dhara hota

huI muddat ki Ghalib mar gaya, puR yaaD Aata hai
woh har ek baat pe kahena, ki yooN hota to kyA hota
