Hey Bibhas,
I joined this forum for one particular song i have been looking for a very long time. Maikhane mein baithe hain aur mai ko taraste hain. I believe it was posted here sometime last year but I can no longer get it.
Is there anyway you can email that to me. I would ask you to just post it here but I just downloaded a song and now my ratio is not 0.5 so i can download anything else. If you could forward it to me at rhitian@yahoo.com, i would be very greatful.
Thank you.
Rhitian,
Here it is: 15:13 @ 128kbps.
I am uploading it here instead of emailing you to keep the spirit of HF alive. Hopefully this will encourage further participation from you to boost your ratio and enable the download. Seems like you are a big Hussain brothers' fan judging by the fact that you joined HF in search of this single ghazal. Please feel free to share your interests with the participants of this thread.
Inaam, Shaibaal and Anjvajay: If you haven't already heard this ghazal, I would highly recommend it. It is a lovely composition in Raag Darbari Kanada with a generous dose of sargam in it.
IMO, it belongs right up there with the other ghazal-e-mai-parasti in Darbari: "hungama hain kyon barpa". Maikhane mein baithe hain aur mai ko taraste hain
Mahaul hai phoolon ka, pathhar se baraste hain

Thanks Bhibhasji,
Ek arshe baad Hussain Bandhu ke purane rung ki koi cheez sunane ko mili.
Lekin maazrat chahata hoon ye
ghazal-e-mai-parasti nahi hai.
"Mai" yahan Alaamat bhar hai. Aur "hungama hain kyon barpa" ka bhi jis tarah se istemal hota hai use dekh kar Akabar Alahabadi ki rooh roti hogi.(Bawajood iske ki Akabar ek Majahiya Shayar ke taur par mashahoor hai, ek sanzida aur soofi kism ke insaan the) Akabar ne isi ghazal ke ek sher me saaf likha hai:
Us mai se nahi matlab, dil jis se ho begana
Matloob hai us mai se, dil hi me jo khichti hai Mai itna saara kuchh isliye likh raha hoon ki is
ghazal-e-mai-parasti ne Ghazal-Gayaki ka bahut bada nuksan kiya hai. Aur yakinan mai parasti ne bhi. 'Shahajahan' me Naushad ne Sahagal se jab bina sarab ke gawa ke dikhaya, tuo Sahagal ro pade the. Kyo ki logon ne unke baare me ye baat faila rakhi thi ki wo bina piye aachha gaa hi nahi sakte,aur Sahagal khud bhi is galatfahmi ka shikar ho gaye the. Batane ki jarurat nahi hai ki Shahajahan tak aate-aate waqt unke haath se nikal chuka tha,sarab tab tak unhe pee chuki thi, yeh unki aakhiri film sabit huyi.
Gahazal-Gayaki ne is mai ki bajah se kafi bure din dekhe hai. Khaas tuar se Pankaj Udhas jaise logon ko kuch din sun kar aisa lagta tha ki Begum Akhtar ne jis ghazal ko kothe se utara tha in logon ne use chandukhane me baitha diya hai. Shukar hai ab halat fir badal rahe hai.Wo is liye bhi ki log ab in ki
mai-mai sun kar tang aa gaye the.
