岣窜滨狈, a small guša (melodic type) of the Persian classical model repertoire radif, placed at the end of a sequence of several gušas; in the 苍补惫腻 mode, it is found after Bay膩t-e 谤腻箩别士; in Šur, after Qajar, in 厂别驳腻丑 and 膶补丑腻谤驳腻丑 at the end of the guša maqlub, and in 惭腻丑耻谤 and Rašt panjg膩h to conclude the non-measured part of 士Ar膩q. 岣锄颈苍 is a melodico-rhythmic structure which adapts itself to several modes; it is a motif which begins by rapidly repeating the same note several times, recurring a degree higher, descending again, then recurring a degree higher once more, and it continues like this until the final descent on the basic note of the mode (&蝉肠补谤辞苍;腻丑别诲). The expression of this guša is soft and somewhat pathetic, then quietened at the conclusion.
For a music sample, see 岣锄颈苍.
