'Jihaale Miskeen' says Amir Khusro

Je-haal-e-miskeen makun taghaaful
Sung by Shabnam Virmani (www.shabnamvirmani.com)
With gratitude to dear friend and renowned Sufi singer Mir Mukhtiyar Ali from Pugal village in Bikaner, Rajasthan, from whom I heard this exquisite version composed by him.
Words of the song:
Je-haal-e-miskeen makun taghaaful
Duraaye naina banaaye batiyaan
Ke taab-e-hijraan nadaaram ay jaan
Na leho kaahe lagaaye chhatiyaan
Shabaan-e-hijraan daraaz chun zulf
Wa roz-e-waslat chun umer kotaah
Sakhi piya ko jo main na dekhun
To kaise kaatun andheri ratiyaan
Yakayak az dil do chashm-e-jaadu
Basad farebam baaburd taskeen
Kisay padi hai jo ja sunaave
Piyaare pi ko hamaari batiyaan
Cho shama sozaan cho zarraa hairaan
Hamesha giryan be ishq an meh
Na neend naina na ang chaina
Na aap aave na bhejen patiyaan
Bahaaq-e-roz-e-visaal-e-dilbar
Ke daad maara fareb Khusro
Sapeet man ke varaaye raakhun
Jo ja ke paun piya ke khatiyaan
This song was part of a concert organised by Alka Jalan Foundation in Kolkata, in March 2023.

The era of romance,love, respect, sense of accomodating and care of human beings is sought in the time of hatred and selfishness.... wishing that era to come back soon and prevail forever....well, great effort, good voice and beautifully composed....more than that well understood by both the singer and composer.... marvelous.

I have no words your voice and this composition by Khusro made me felt like I’m in 14th century somewhere around Delhi…

Good tune. She sings it with a feeling. It uplifts. Ze Haal e miskin becomes je haal e miskin. Hindustani Persian indeed!

[@rundy123]

There is no Z sound in Hindi that's why Indians replace Z with J sound. Jeera, Jindagi, Jindabad
