Notes
Dark-red cloth cum leather binding — bold and fair, margin carefully drawn in red — black, red — Arabic script → Nastaʽlīq — paper — The 36 Mars̤iyahs in this Ms. (elegies on the death of Imām Ḥusain, the grand-son
of Prophet Muḥammad), varying in length and in metre, were written by fourteen different
poets of Lucknow during the 18th and 19th centuries. This Bayāẓ contains 14 Mars̤iyahs
by Afsurdah, 5 by Nāz̤im, 4 by Ḵẖalīq and 3 by Ḥaidarī. Also Taqī, Eḥsān, Gadā, ʿĀlam,
Faṣīḥ and Qais have each contributed one Mars̤iyah and the remaining 4 are by unknown
authors. Most of these elegies contain 30 to 40 stanzas, each of six lines. The first
two foll were very badly damaged and are restored with tissue paper. On f. 3a of this
Bayāẓ, the date 7th Muḥarram 1255 A. H. can be read at the end of a مجرا , which begins
with: مجرائی چشم تر کرو سرور کا غم کرو قایم مقام حیدر صفدر کا غم کرو It is written in a different hand and seems to be a later addition, most probably
by the owner of this Bayāẓ.
