sū-e-mai-kada na jaate to kuchh aur baat hotī
Had I not gone toward the tavern, it would have been another matter
سُوئے مے کدہ نہ جاتے تو کچھ اور بات ہوتی سُوئے کعبہ ہو گئے ہوتے تو کچھ اور بات ہوتی
sū-e-mai-kada na jaate to kuchh aur baat hotī sū-e-ka'aba ho ga.e hote to kuchh aur baat hotī
Had I not gone toward the tavern, it would have been another matter; Had I gone toward the Ka'aba, it would have been something else entirely.
