I think that Ramiz Rafi Mirza (Ramy) having a name similar to the Urdu poet Mirza Muhammad Rafi Sauda, him talking about Ghazals which are precisely Sauda's area of expertise (including Qasidas) and him having been to Lucknow the death place of Sauda might not have been unintentional. I wish I could hold R.F. Kuang's hand and kiss it.
If it was unintentional, what an accidental genius.

Le Chala Jaan Meri · Abida Parveen
अपने दिल को भी बताऊँ न ठिकाना तेरा / सब ने जाना जो पता एक ने जाना तेरा / तू जो ऐ ज़ुल्फ़ परेशान रहा करती है / किस के उजड़े हुए दिल में है ठिकाना तेरा।
Translation: Should I not even tell my heart where you are? Everyone knows that only one knows your address. You who keep troubling me like a lock, your place is in someone's ruined heart.

Dastangoi: The Art of Storytelling
Tumblr media
Dastangoi is an Urdu storytelling art. Derived from Persia. Dastangoi is performed by one person who's referred to as a Dastango, the word for storyteller. Stories are referred to as Dastans. Dastan means, tale or story and the suffix -goi makes it a verb. Hence, Dastangoi translates to "to tell a story"
Dastangoi had it's origins in pre-Islamic Arabia and moved onto Iran and then the North Indian cities of Delhi and Lucknow in the 18th century.
It was very popular in Lucknow, across all classes of people and in public and private. It was done in the streets, in homes and even opium dens. Many people saw Dastans as a key part of the the experience in an opium den
Some people, who were particularly rich would hire Dastangos to entertain their clients and friends. These stories would come under themes such as, war, pleasure, beauty, love and deception.
Dastangoi enjoyed a revitalisation in India in 2005, which seemed to have stemmed from Mahmood Farooqui

Levana Roof Top Restaurant in #Lucknow, India by 42MM Architecture @42mmarchitecture. Read more: Link in bio! Photography: Ravi Kanade 42MM Architecture: The design of Levana Roof Top Restaurant is a homage to the Mughal and the French Architectural heritage of Lucknow. The site is located in Hazratgunj, which is a 200 year old market street in the heart of the city. It is one of the most contextually opulent city zone. The site is induced with layers of contextuality that Lucknow bears. Through time, the city is embellished with Mughal and French architecture ornamenting it in their respective eras. Investigating through the different iconic structures, we consciously subject the elements and style of a French structure commonly known as Lucknow Residency onto the site. This added a layer of singularity and set the tone for the aesthetics as well the structural characteristics like the imposing metal structure, vintage industrial joinery details, venerable and distressed skeleton… #india #restaurant #архитектура www.amazingarchitecture.com ✔ A collection of the best contemporary architecture to inspire you. #design #architecture #amazingarchitecture #architect #arquitectura #luxury #realestate #life #cute #architettura #interiordesign #photooftheday #love #travel #construction #furniture #instagood #fashion #beautiful #archilovers #home #house ‎#amazing #picoftheday #architecturephotography ‎#معماری (at Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnzuKY0OFWv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

sabne us shokh ko mazmon kiya,
humne tasveer banayi saheb.,
پھول اتنے کے دہائی صاحِب وہ چلی تو نظر آئی صاحِب اُس نے پانی سے اُٹھایا تھا خمیر اور پھر آگ دکھائی صاحِب سب نے اُس شوخ کو مضمون کیا ہم نے تصویر بنائی صاحِب میں بھلا کب نظر آسکتا تھا اُس نے آواز لگائی صاحِب درج ہوتی ہے ہمیشہ کے لیے زخم کی کاروائی صاحِب
Phool itne ke duhai sahib
Wo chali tou nazar ayi sahib
Uss ne pani say uthaya tha khamir
Aur phir aag dekhai sahib
Sab nay uss shokh ko mazmon keya
Hum nay taswer banai sahib
Main bhala kab nazar ay sakta tha
Uss nay awaz lagai sahib
Daraj hoti hay hamesha kay leye Zakhum ki karwai sahib
English Translation: A flower concealed in flowers, she was: my friend She was sighted in the gyre, my friend The yeasted starter rose from the water And the master had it hardened on fire: my friend All captured with words the cherished one, But i, painted the picture prior: my friend Hiding and concealed' I was revealed Hailed by my beloved, the crier: my friend It's written in stone of destiny the wound Entered in the book of desire: my friend
