DETAILS / POEM TEXT

Mary Oliver reads "Wild Geese"

Track 5 from Pakistani progressive rock band The D/A Method's debut album The Great Disillusion. 

(Dar/Alvie/Iqbal/Ajaz)

Ghoom darvaish ghoom
Paani kay hazaron boondh
Aur aatish ki noor
Mein mil kar ghoom

Ghoom darvaish ghoom
Tera ishq zamanay mein mushhoor
Tera imaan mazboot
Mere sapnon mein…

Ghoom
Mere mann mein
Ghoom

Mullah kee nazar
Noor-e-firasat se khalee hai
Darvaish to…
Rooh-e-nafasat par jhoomta hai

Is kaum mein magar
Muddat se who darvaish nayaab hai
Dhoondun to milay
Mere dil mein…

Ghoom
Mere mann mein
Ghoom
Mere tann mein ghoom

D solo

D/A solo

A solo

Translation:
Whirl darvaish whirl
In thousands of drops of water
And the light of fire
Merge and whirl

Whirl darvaish whirl
Your love – legendary through the ages
Your faith – strong
In my dreams…

Whirl
In my mind
Whirl

The Mullah’s sight
Has lost the light of penetrative vision
But the darvaish…
Dances to a refined frequency

In this nation
For ages the darvaish has been scarce
If I search I’ll find him
In my heart…

Whirl
In my mind
Whirl
In my body, whirl

Darvaish

Lyrics:
Aatay hain Sab begunnah
Is gher k aangan main
Jaatay hain kab kistarha
Laikay kia daaman main

Ghum nai kam nai dhoop main chaaoun
Roshni jo mujhay doondhti rahi jaisay
Shaaam dhalti rahi hai
Yeh aag jalti rahi...
Aankhon ne roe kay kaha jo
Woh baat barhti gayyii
Baat barhti gayi.

Aahon main hain samm
Mitaye jo har umeed ko
Kaanto se hai bhara chaman
Khilay jo aik gulaaab tou ..

Ghum nai kamm nai dhoop main chaaoun
Roshni jo mujhay doondhti rahi jaisay
Shaaam dhalti rahi hai
Yeh aag jalti rahi...
Aankhon ne roo kay kaha jo
Woh baat barhti gayyiii


koi nai hai tere siwaaa
Bera na paar ho tere binaaa
Tareek raatoun main phootay gi kab umeed ki kiran

Koi nai hai tere siwaaa
Bera na paar ho tere binaaa
Tareek raatoun main phootay gi kab umeed ki ..
Tareek raatoun main phootay gi kab umeed ki kirann

Shaam dhalti rahi hai
Yeh aag jalti rahi ..
Aankhoun ne roo kay kaha jo
Woh baat barhti gayi
Baat barhti gayi
Baat barhti gayi
Aankhoun ne roo kay kaha jo
Woh baat barhti gayi
Baat barhti gayi
Baat barhti gayi
