AI Ghazal Generator
Paste your shers in Urdu or Hindi and hear them sung as a slow, intimate ghazal over harmonium, sarangi and tabla.
A ghazal lives in its couplets. Each sher stands on its own, the matla opens the poem, the radif and qafiya return at the end of each couplet, and the maqta often carries the poet's name. Sung, it wants space: a slow tempo, a harmonium, a sarangi or violin answering the voice, and a soft tabla underneath.
Autunes takes your shers and sings them as written, from Urdu script (غزل) or Devanagari (ग़ज़ल). Write your own, or describe the mood and ask for an Urdu or Hindi ghazal to be written for you. Every finished vocal is compared with its lyrics, which matters for poetry where one changed word breaks the couplet.
Why creators choose Autunes
Sher to song
Paste four or five shers, or a full ghazal, and the singer sings them in order with the refrain where you place it.
Urdu and Hindi scripts
Urdu is sung from Perso-Arabic script and Hindi from Devanagari, so nuqta sounds such as ग़ and ज़ are written the way you want them heard.
Slow, intimate arrangements
Harmonium, sarangi, tabla, santoor, piano or soft strings, and a male or female voice with room to breathe.
Checked against your poem
Every finished vocal is transcribed and compared with its lyrics. On Pro and Creator, Auto-Fix (10 credits) re-records only the lines that came out wrong and leaves the rest of the song untouched.
Edit one couplet
On Pro and Creator, Studio re-sings or rewrites one section without regenerating the whole ghazal, and splits 6 stems for your own mix.
Free to start
25 credits on signup and 20 free credits every day after that, enough for about two full songs a day. Free songs are up to 3 minutes and for personal use.
Ghazal prompt ideas
Ghazals work best slow. Name the instruments, the voice, the mood and roughly the tempo, then paste your shers in the lyrics box.
- Try: 'Urdu ghazal, slow, male vocal, harmonium and sarangi with soft tabla, melancholic, 68 BPM, my lyrics in Urdu script.'
- Try: 'Hindi ghazal about memories of an old city, female vocal, santoor and piano, gentle and nostalgic.'
- Try: 'Romantic ghazal in Hindustani, violin answering each line, light tabla, intimate late-night mood.'
- Try: 'Modern ghazal, acoustic guitar and soft strings, warm male vocal, slow, for a poetry reel.'
- Try: 'Sufi-leaning ghazal, harmonium drone, tabla, devotional and reflective, chorus repeats the radif.'
What to expect
The singer follows your words, but it does not check your behr (metre) or your qafiya; the poetry is yours. Ornamentation and free-time aalaap come from the style you describe and vary by take, so regenerate or make a variation if a take feels rushed.
Songs run up to 3 minutes on Free and Pro and 5 minutes on Creator. No real singer's voice is imitated: describe the style, not a ghazal singer.

How ownership works
Can AI sing a ghazal?
Yes. Paste your shers in Urdu or Hindi and Autunes sings them as a slow ghazal with harmonium, sarangi, tabla or the instruments you name.
Can I turn my shayari into a song?
Yes. Paste the shers as lyrics and describe the mood; they are sung as written, in Urdu script or Devanagari.
Does it understand behr and qafiya?
It sings the words you give it in order; it does not check metre or rhyme. Keep your couplets as you want them heard.
Will Urdu words be pronounced correctly?
Every finished vocal is transcribed and compared with its lyrics. On Pro and Creator, Auto-Fix (10 credits) re-records only the lines that came out wrong and leaves the rest of the song untouched.
Is it free?
Yes, you can start free. New accounts get 25 credits, then 20 free credits every day after those are used, which is about two full songs a day on Zori5 Turbo (10 credits a song). Zori5.5 XL costs 15 credits and is used on the free plan when you paste your own lyrics. Free songs run up to 3 minutes and are for personal use.
Can I publish my ghazal on YouTube or Spotify?
Yes, with a commercial licence. Pro (₹599 for 30 days, about US$7) and Creator (₹2,999 for 30 days, about US$36) include downloads, a commercial licence for YouTube, Instagram and streaming, and creation proof. Without a plan, a single-song licence costs ₹9 in India (priced locally elsewhere, e.g. US$0.99). Free-plan songs are for personal use only. Passes never auto-renew.
