This lovely recital by Ustad Manzoor & Abdullah Niazi was transcribed 

and eloquently translated by Musab Bin Noor upon Fatima Hamid's request. 

Naseema Janib-e Bat-ha Guzar Kun - Jami

Naseema Janib e Batha Guzar Kun
Zey Ahwaalum Muhammad Ra Khabar Kun
(Sallalahu Alehe Wasalam)

O cool breeze whenever you go to Batha (Madinah)
Say all abouts of me to Muhammad (Sallalahu Alehe Wasalam)
Tu'ee Sultaan e Aalam Ya Muhammad(Sallahu Alehe Waslam)
Ze Roo e Lutf Soo e Mann Nazar Kun

You are the King of all the worlds ya Muhammad (Sallalahu Alehe Wasalam)
Please look towards me with your sweet and blessing gaze

Bey Bareen Jaan e Mushtaqaan Dar'a Jaa
Fida e Roza e Khair-ul-Bashar Kun

Please approach to me. I, The helpless and fond of You is perishing 
at your mausoleum O Best of All (Sallalahy Alehe Wasalam)
Musharaf Garchey Shud Jami Zey Lutfash
Khudara Ee Karam Baar e Gigar Kun.

Although Jami has been blessed by You (Sallalahu Alehe Wasalam)Please for God's sake bless me once again

صبآ پھر جانبے بطحا گزر کر
میرے احوال کی انکو خبر کر

میری مشتاقے جاں اس در پے لے جا
نثارے روضئ خیرالبشر کر

تو ہی سلطانے عالم ہے محمد 
کرم اور لطف کی مجھ پر نظر کر 

ئ جامی لطف انکا پا چکا ہے
خدایا یے کرم بارے دگر کر

Tori Soorat Ke Balhari Nijam - Amir Khusrau

Tori soorat kay balihaari, Nijaam
Tori soorat kay balihaari.
Sab sakhiyan mein chundar meri mailee,
Dekh hansain nar naari, Nijaam
Ab ke bahar chundar meri rang de,
Piya rakh lay laaj hamari, Nijaam.
Sadqa baba Ganj Shakar ka,
Rakh lay laaj hamari, Nijaam.
Qutab, Farid mil aaye barati,
'Khusrau' raajdulaari, Nijaam.
Kouo saas kouo nanad say jhagday,
Hamko aas tihaari, Nijaam.
Tori soorat kay balihaari, Nijaam.

Beholding your appearance, Oh Nijaam
I offer myself in sacrifice.
Amongst all the girls, my scarf is the most soiled,
Look, the girls are laughing at me.
This spring, please dye my scarf for me,
Oh Nijaam, protect my honour.
In the name of Ganj-e Shakar (Nizamuddin Aulia's pir),
Protect my honour, Oh beloved Nijaam.
Qutab and Farid have come in the wedding procession,
And Khusrau is the loving bride, Oh Nijaam.
Some have to fight with the mother-in-law,
While some with sisters-in-law,
But I have you for support, Oh Nijaam.

Poetry: Hazrat Amir Khusrau
Recital: Ustad Manzoor Ahmed Khan Niazi & Munshi Raziuddin Qawwal

Q A U L - an old recording - Manzoor Ahmed Khan Niazi

Manzoor Ahmed Niazi Qawwal brothers who came from the delhi qawwal bachaey gharana to karachi after partition and hail from Hyderabad Deccan recite this rendition of the QAUL. The party included brothers the late Bahauddin Khansaheb and Munshi Raziuddin saheb back in those days.

It is a pretty good recording considering its age. Around 7.30 mins it is particularly beautiful when they are start the brief tarana at "ham toum tananana, toum tananana
illahi ye jalsa kahan ho raha......."

In the end I found it left me wanting for more as the recording is sadly incomplete. Still it gives you a flavor of what it was like back then. Jazba barda buland tha!
