	Ghazal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In poetry (and as the lyrics in songs), the ghazal (Persian/Urdu غزل) is a poetic form consisting of couplets which share a rhyme and a refrain.
		Ghazals were written by the Persian mystics and poets Jalal al-Din Muhammad Rumi (13th century) and Hafez (14th century), the Turkish poet Fuzuli (16th century), as well as Mirza Ghalib (1797–1869) and Muhammad Iqbal (1877–1938), who both used the Persian as well as the Urdu language.
		Consequently, ghazals are not to be confused with poetry of seduction.

		Ghazal could be chanted in a semi-melodic tarannum style by poets at poetry readings, or it could be used as a text for Muslim devotional qawwali performed by professional groups in shrines.
		Ghazal as a musical genre became particularly popular in the nineteenth century, when a proto-capitalist, incipient bourgeoisie began to replace the declining feudal Mughal nobility as patrons of the fine arts.
		The appearance of regional-language ghazals is directly related to the rise of cassettes, with their crucial role in the ghazal boom in general, and in the emergence of commercial regional music.

		There is never a song of _Nur Uddin_ but has in it a great achievement And is as brilliant as a young hyacinth; I pour a ray of honey on my disciples, There is as it were a fire in my ballades.
		Your voice brings back the songs Of every nest, Your eyes bring back the sun Out of the South, Violets and roses peep Where you have laughed the snow away And kissed the snow away, And in my heart there is a garden still For the lost birds.

		The song is quite a drastic change from the opening number but is none-the-less a decent track.
		Both singers do justice to the song but perhaps if they were given the title track also they would have gotten the recognition they have been looking for.

		Everything that Saigol sings - bhajans, ghazals, love songs, self-pitying songs, ditties for children, drinking songs - is musical, which is to say, pleasing to the ear.
		There are some joyous songs too, for instance "chupo na, chupo na, chupo na." Saigol also had a great laugh, which you can hear in some of his songs.
		Not so with the Nightingale of India - or rather the subcontinent's nightingale, for Lata belongs to no one country - the pitch of whose voice, regardless of whether she is singing a song, ghazal or bhajan, is always unmistakably the same.
