Hearken to the tale of Love’s [metaphysical] perplexity:
Neither the ardour of madness remained,
Neither the angelic beloved remained;
Neither did thou remain, neither did I remain,
Only (undifferentiated) unawareness remained.

The Shah of no-self-ness has now bestowed upon me
The garment of nakedness;
Neither the stitching of reason remained,
Neither the veiling of madness’ ardour remained.

A wind blew from the threshold of the unseen,
And the garden of bliss was consumed.
Yet, but a branch of the tree of sorrow
Known as the heart― green remained.

With which tongue am I to recount the indifference of the beloved?
Desire akin to the wine of a hundred goblets brimmed up
In the vessel of the heart yet, therein remained.

What a marvellous instant it was that I learned of the elixir of Love!
The book of reason placed on the shelf,
On the shelf remained.

The intensity of the perplexity of your beauty,
Was so brilliantly revealed, that
Neither the mirror’s shine remained,
Neither the angelic beloved’s beauty remained.

The fire of love has reduced the mute heart of *Siraj to ashes,
Neither fright remained,
Nor caution remained,
Only fearlessness remained.

*Siraj Awrangabadi (1715–1763 CE)

Ishq Mein Tere Koh-e-Gham - عشق میں تیرے كوہ غم
Qawwali at Noor Cultural Centre, Toronto

عشق میں تیرے كوہ غم سر پہ لیا جو ہو سو ہو
عیش و نشاط زندگی چھوڑ دیا جو ھو سو ھو


لاگ كی آگ لگتے ھی بمبا نمد یہ جل گیا
رخت وجود و جان و تن كچھ نہ بچا جو ھو سو ھو

عقل كے مدرسے سے اٹھ، عشق كے مدرسے میں آ
جام فنا و بیخودی اب تو پیا جو ھو سو ھو




Hazrat Shah Niyaz (1742-1834).

Posted again after the comment from Asif Hasnain from Vienna.

"Just beautiful, both the kalaam and the rendition. Transports the listener. The power of love of music, of the creator, of life, of the eternal. Thank you for this wonderful post, which I came across just now. " Asif Hasnain.

There was a beautiful mood created that night which can be felt through this particular ghazal. Both the qawwals and the audience were in heaven and feeding off each other. The style (andaaz-e-bayan) takes me back to other recitals I heard during my childhood.

Ishq mein tere koh-e-gham sar pe liya jo ho so ho
aesh-o-nishaat-e-zindagi chhord diya jo ho so ho

Laag ki aag lagte hi, Bamba namad yeh jal gaya
Rakht-e-wojood-e-jaano tak kuchh na bacha jo ho so ho

Aql ke Madrase se uth, Ishq ke Maikade mein aa
Jaame Fanaa-o-Bekhudi ab to Piya jo ho so ho

Hijr ki jo museebatein, arz kiin uske rubaru
Naazo adaa se muskura, kehne lagaa jo ho so ho

Hasti ke is saraab mein, Raat ki Raat bas rahe
Subhe Adam Huaa Numoo, Paaon Uthaa jo ho so ho

Translation: Saqib Mumtaz
Mountains of agony, i bear in your love now, come what may.
The luxuries of life, i forsake now, come what may.

In the fervor of love, the threads of being seared,
the fabric of body, form, self; all charred now, come what may.

Rise from the seminary of reason, enter the tavern of love
From chalice of annihilation and selflessness, drink now, come what may.

The pangs of seperation, I bared before the beloved
With an airy smile said, "now, come what may."

In the mirage of this body, I seek the night only
And if Adam appears with the morning, I could raise the feet, come what may!

Qawwali: Ishq Mein Teray Koh-e-Gham by Fareed Ayaz and Abu Mohammad

می دانم کہ آخر چوں دمِ دیدار می رقصم
مگر نازم بایں ذوق کہ پیشِِ یار می رقصم
(How is it that at mere sight I am enraptured?
But it is only proper; it is for love I dance)

تو آں قاتل کہ از بہرِ تماشہ خون من ریزی
منم بسمل کہ زیرِ خنجرِ خونخوار می رقصم
(Such display may cause my killer to lust for my blood
And meek under the thirsty blade, I dance)

بیا جاناں تماشا کن کہ درانبوہ جانبازاں
بصد سامانِ رسوائی سرِ بازار می رقصمکہ 
(O life, see me amidst hordes of your fearless lovers
Shouldering my shame before their eyes, I dance)

منم عثمان مروندیؔ كہ یارِ شیخ منصورم
ملامت می کُند خلقِ و من بردار می رقصم
(For I am Usman of Marwand, apostle of Mansoor the Wise
Creation chides and condemns, and on the gallows, I dance.)

Nami Danam Keh Akhir Choon By Abu Muhammad And Farid Ayaz

عرض نیاز عشق کے قابل نہیں رہا
جس دل پہ ناز تھا مجھے وہ دل نہیں رہا


Arz e Niyaz E Ishq k Qabil Nh Rah.mp3

"Mori Bangri Murak Gayi Ae Re Chhail, Woh Toh Aawat Jaawat Roke Gail" simply means "My Bangle Got Bent O My Lover, He Stops Me On My Way As I Come And Go" in brij or braj language. It is a beautiful representation of playful love in qawwali by brothers Fareed Ayaz and Abu Mohammad, who are direct descendants of legendary poet Amir Khusrow. They have a 700+ years of qawwali legacy, which can be felt effortlessly in their unbelievable skill of playing with the notations and the wide scales of their vocal ability. Fused with mild groovy techno music, this qawwali experience would enthrall you whether you are an avid qawwali fan or a novice.
