Another Saigal Ghazal

After a long time, another rare Saigal ghazal:

‘gar siyah-bakht hii hona tha naseebon mein mere

zulf hota tere rukhsar pe ya til hota

The recording I have has the first line snipped off. It could be cleaner too — this file is too saturated and a little noisy. Maybe I will re-digitize it someday when I have the time.

Enjoy!

    i received a copy of the gazal with the first line intact. let me see when i can reach it to you. this is one of the two gazals of ibrahim zauq that k l saigal sang.the other is the better known
    laayee hayat aaye, qaza le chali chaley
    apni khushi na aaye ,na apni khushi chaley.

    in fact the matla a of the present gazal is different.

    is tapish ka hai mazaa dil hi ko haasil hota
    kaash mein ishq mein sar ta ba qadam dil hota.

    hoti gar uqda kushaii na yadullah ke saath
    “zauq” hal kyonke mera uqda e mushkil hota.

    yadullah being epithet for hazrat ali.

    roughly translated this means that if it had not been for the intervention of ali ,how else would zauq’s difficulties be removed?
