Akhtari Bai Faizabadi, also known as Begum Akhtar (7 October 1914 – 30 October 1974), was a well known Indian singer of Ghazal, and Dadra, and Thumri genres of Hindustani classical music.
She received the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award for vocal music, and was awarded Padma Shri and Padma Bhushan (posthumously) by Govt. of India. She was given the title of Mallika-e-Ghazal (Queen of Ghazals)
Begum Akhtar was born in Bada Darwaza, Town Bhadarsa, Bharatkund, Faizabad District, Uttar Pradesh. Her father, Asghar Hussain, a young lawyer who fell in love with her mother Mushtari and made her his second wife, subsequently disowned her and his twin daughters Zohra and Bibbi (Akhtar)
Akhtar was barely seven when she was captivated by the music of Chandra Bai, an artist attached to a touring theatre group. However at her uncle's insistence she was sent to train under Ustad Imdad Khan, the great sarangi exponent from Patna, and later under Ata Mohammed Khan of Patiala. Later, she travelled to Calcutta with her mother and learnt music from classical stalwarts like Mohammad Khan, Abdul Waheed Khan of Lahore, and finally she became the disciple of Ustad Jhande Khan.
Her first public performance was at the age of fifteen.
(ഗസലിന്‍റെ പൊതുവേയുള്ള ദുഃഖഭാവത്തിന് സ്വപ്നങ്ങളോടാണ് ചാര്‍ച്ച. എവിടെയോ നാം മറന്നുവച്ച സ്വപ്നങ്ങളെ മികച്ച ഗസലുകള്‍ ഉയിര്‍ത്തെഴുന്നേല്‍പ്പിക്കും. കിനാവുകളുടെ ഫോസിലുകളില്‍ നിന്ന് നാം നമ്മെയന്വേഷിച്ചു യാത്ര പുറപ്പെടും. പ്രണയത്തിന്റെ ഛായാപടം അസ്സലുലകത്തെ വന്നു മൂടിക്കളയും. നിറംപോയ ദിനസരികളുടെ തനിയാവര്‍ത്തനങ്ങളില്‍ നിന്ന്, കലണ്ടര്‍ ജീവിതത്തിലെ മുള്ളു പാകിയ വഴിത്താരയില്‍ നിന്ന് അഭിലാഷങ്ങളുടെ അജ്ഞാതപാന്‍ജിയയിലേക്ക് നാടുകടത്തപ്പെടും. നമ്മുടെ ലോകമല്ലത്, നമുക്കുള്ളിലെ പരലോകമാണ്‌. പ്രണയിനിയുടെ ലജ്ജാവിവശമായ കണ്ണുകളെപ്പറ്റി, അവള്‍ക്കായി മാത്രം പാടാന്‍ കൊതിച്ച ഗാനങ്ങളെപ്പറ്റി മെഹ്ദി ഹസന്‍ “പ്യാര്‍ ഭരെ ദോ ശര്‍മീലെ നയ്ന്‍, ജിനസേ മിലാ മേരെ ദില്‍കോ ചെയ്ന്‍ ” എന്നു പാടുമ്പോള്‍ ഒരുനാളും പാടാതെ പോയ പാട്ടിന്‍റെ തിരകള്‍ വന്ന് സ്വപ്നത്തിന്റെ തീരങ്ങളില്‍ ആര്‍ത്തലയ്ക്കും. അതെ , സ്വപ്നജാഗരണത്തിന്റെ ഗേയശില്‍പ്പമാണ് ഗസല്‍.)

ab chhalakate hue saagar nahi dekhe jaate
taubaa ke baad ye mazar nahi dekhe jaate
mast kar ke mujhe, auro ko lagaa mun saaqi
ye karam hosh me rah kar nahi dekhe jaate
saath har ek ko is raah me chalanaa hogaa
ishq me rahazaan-o-rahabaar nahi dekhe jaate
ham ne dekhaa hai zamaane kaa badalanaa lekin
un ke badale hue tevar nahi dekhe jaate

padiye gar bimaar to koi na ho timaaradaar
aur agar mar jaaye to, nohaakhvaan koi na ho

aah musibat ke wo lamhe
