Song No 26: Bayāt-e Tork (2)
Djenāb Damāvandi’s performance in the Bayāt-e Tork mode narrates a poem by Saadi. The singer’s extensive use of long, drawn-out trills, and his unique and mysterious technique, bring the listener closer to the music of the Qajar period, step by step.
Bayāt-e Tork 2 Lyrics
Who knows how long the night of separation lasts
Except the one who is imprisoned in the love of the beloved
Who will convey my message to the friend,
who severed the bond of love?
Though you have severed our bond, I still love you.
