Note 170 — ALAEDDIN; OR, THE WONDERFUL LAMP. (continued 2)
Richard Francis Burton translation
Arab. “Músiká,” classically “Musikí” = Μουσικὴ: the Pers. form is “Músikár”; and the Arab. equivalent is Al-Lahn. In the H. V. the King “made a signal and straightway drums (dhol) and trumpets (trafír) and all manner wedding instruments struck up on every side.”
