This Valentine’s Day, we are celebrating the beautiful tale of Heer Rhanja - the most popular tragic love story of Panjab. But this isn’t just about two lovers yearning to be together - through the Sufi lens, it’s a metaphor for ishq-e-haqiqi (divine love). 

Sufi Saint Baba Bulleh Shah captures this in their poetry, personifying the longing for a spiritual connection that transcends the realms of worldly love (ishq-e-majazi). 

Listen to our reimagined version of this classic folk song, and experience the power of love, and longing for that connection with the divine.
