قُلْ
أَرَأَيْتُمْ
إِنْ
أَصْبَحَ

غَوْرًا
فَمَن
يَأْتِيكُم
بِمَاءٍ
مَّعِينٍ

Say, ‘Tell me, should your water sink down [into the ground], who will bring you running water?’
— Ali Quli Qarai
Say: "See ye?- If your stream be some morning lost (in the underground earth), who then can supply you with clear-flowing water?"
