Dashti 2 song 1912
Song No 6: Dashti (2)
The third collaboration between Djenāb Damāvandi and Hossein Khān Esmāeilzādeh on the kamāncheh resulted in the longest recorded piece of this session. The selection of another poem by Shāter Abbās Ghomi, a skilled baker and an exquisite poet, demonstrates the singer’s mastery in harmonizing poetry and melody effectively.

Dashti 2 Lyrics
When the believer and the Christian see your beauty,
The former turns away from the Kaaba,
and the latter from the church.
