SHINWARI LAWANGEENA (ZOHAIB KAZI & ZARSANGA) - FANOOS Episode 6

Ye Dil Cha Dila Sista Balochi New Song

I drive myself mad: suffocated by existence. 
 
The clergy keeps reciting tales of torment and agony.
Yet, here I am, tormented by existence and feelings. 
So, at times I stoop to God; at times I seek refuge in wine. 
 
When oblivious, I vanish; when conscious, I am in anguish!
Without the strength for peace, without the courage to agitate
When I look all over, it is my own being, revealed and concealed
 
I am the one who made the nectar; I am the one who made the pulpit.
Religion is but some rituals, tales and a rationale.
It is the answer to a question that does not have any answer!

Niqab - Yasir & Jawad

In a desert, once, on a hunt did I find,
With a radiant smile, a flower so fair;

Sadly, I approached and sighed, “Ah! Of my kind
Are you too – a hapless flower from a beloved's hair.
 
Frail fingers wouldn't take you to a soft face so close,
Nor would you be kissed by lips delicate and rose.”

With a silent smile the flower replied, “Don't lose heart!
This desert I wouldn't give up for the gardens of Iran,
A solitary I am here while legions are there,
 
Amidst this cursed soil I stand apart.
 
In this gray desert, a flamboyant flame of divine light am I,
Beauty's silent song, a miracle from the sky.

In your garden, there are thousands of flowers like me 
A nameless droplet in a nameless sea.
 
You too, in your desert, don't feel forlorn,
To behold you at last shall come a sore Ghani Khan.

Art for religious fundamentalism is, like water for fire, mere existence, is a form of resistance.
Khumariyaan was born in the age of Talibanisation, sectarian violence, military operations and neo-imperialist expansions, in the region which is a gateway to Central Asia, in the city of Peshawar.

A band of musicians whose tunes are based on their native music, with a tinge of other native music of the world as well, our audience is the educated youth of Pakistan, and our mission is to enlighten the youth with all encompassing aesthetics and performing arts. Our focus is to elevate music to medium of peace of being, and musically, break the tradition of the South Asian vocal based musical culture, thus we are an instrumental band.

Centered on the concept that vocals should complement music, we compose with little fragments of vocals to compliment the overall harmony. We are group of individuals that came together, as on soul, to experience the trance that is live, acoustic music.

To us, music is the best sublimated form of art, and we leave its interpretation to the one who experiences our attempt at being artists. In our journey, we hope to entice musical ‘goose bumps’, and become a moving philosophical experience
