A brief re-cap for those who have joined us late in the series. We are
discussing Music India's album "Gulistan - Volume 7" which consists of
ghazals sung by Tahir Syed, daughter of Mallika Pukhraj.

So far three ghazals from the album have been posted. These are:

ye aalam shauq kaa dekhaa na jaaye by Ahmed Faraz (MeG #532)
ab ke tajdiid-e-vafaa kaa nahii.n imkaa.N jaanaa.N by Ahmed Faraz (MeG #533)
Gazab kiyaa, tere vaade pe aitabaar kiyaa by Daag Dehlvi (MeG #534)


The next two ghazals in the album have already been posted in MeG. These are:

1. baadabaa.N khulane se pahale kaa ishaaraa dekhanaa 
by Parveen Shakir (MeG #61) 
2. kab yaad me.n teraa saath nahii.n kab haath me.n teraa haath nahii.n

Moving on to the next song in the album, we have this ghazal by Daag Dehlvi:


na jaao haal-e-dil-e-zaar dekhate jaao 
ki jiinaa chaahe to naachaar dekhate jaao 

[haal-e-dil-e-zaar = condition of the wailing heart; naachaar = helpless]


bahaar-e-umr me.n baaG-e-jahaa.N kii sair karo 
khilaa huaa hai ye gulazaar dekhate jaao 

[gulazaar = garden]


uThao aa.Nkh na sharmaao ye to mahafil hai 
Gazab se jaanib-e-aGyaar dekhate jaao 

[jaanib-e-aGyaar = towards strangers/rivals]


huaa hai kyaa abhii hangaamaa abhii kuchh hogaa 
fugaa.N me.n hashr ke aasaar dekhate jaao 

[fugaa.N = cry of pain; hashr = doomsday/calamity; aasaar = symptoms]


tumhaarii aa.Nkh mere dil se besabab bevajah 
hu_ii hai la.Dane ko tayyaar dekhate jaao 

[besabab = without reason; bevajah = without cause; tayyaar = ready]


ko_ii na ko_ii har ik sher me.n hai baat zaruur 
janaab-e-"Daag" ke ashaar dekhate jaao 

[ashaar (plural of sher) = couplets]
