Lyrics in Sindhi

جا خدا کان نه ٿي جا نه امڪان ۾
ڪالهه کان ڳالهه آهي سا انسان ۾

هو ته مونکي چِتا تي وٺي ٿي ويا
مينهن برسي پيو ڪالهه شمشان ۾

بادلو بادلو ڪجهه ته برسي وڃو
رات ترسي وڃو هِن بيابان ۾

عشق تنهنجو اياز آهي انسان سان
هو چون ٿا ته تون ناهين ايمان ۾

جا خدا کان نه ٿي جا نه امڪان ۾
ڪالهه کان ڳالهه آهي سان انسان ۾

Translation in English

What was beyond the world of possibility & god couldn't accomplish 
That has been a human attribute 

They were set to put me on fire 
But other day The Rain broke out in the crematorium 
to foil their wish

O Ye clouds O Ye clouds, do some downpour
stay over night in the bleak desert of my soul

Ayaz you have found God in Human/Humanity so you adore them
Clergy claims you Faithless

THE SKETCHES - Project - Darawar (The Dravidians)

Song: Mu Na Eeyen Ko Jaato Ho - I never knew that  

Translation in English

I never knew that…
In the name of religion
Our land would’ve to see such days!
The earth will have its religion too
The earth will be Hindu or Muslim too
Enemies of enlightenment and awakening
Enemies of music & melody
Enemies of the beauties of the world
Enemies of humanity
Don’t what they want!
Suppressing laughter’s
Opening respite of sects
Want to inflict new wound
Want to destroy fragrance
Pains and pains will be
Seen through religious dogmas
The dead will have religion too
The dead will be dug out & drag down
The dead will be black or white too
I never knew that
Shadows of trees
Will be Hindu Muslim too
Souring birds will be
Shia & Sunni too
I never knew that
Our land would’ve to
See such days too!
I never knew

Aajaye kissi din tu, Aisa bhi nahi lagta (Ghazal)
The Sketches (covers Pankaj Udhas)
Recorded at: Lahooti Studios Jamshoro (Live)
Arranged by: Nomi Ali
Vocals: Saif

When i was in School my father used to listen this ghazal of Pankaj Udhas and many others too, one reason i had strong connection with my memories is such poetry and music which still runs in my mind and certain visuals are still stored somewhere in mind having the music which my father introduced to me.

Guitars: Khuram Hassan
Percussions: Asif Hasnain 
Bass: Awais

تون چئين مَ ڪڇان
تون چئين مَ لڇان
پر توکان هڪڙي ڳالهه پُڇان
تون ڪنهن ڪنهن کي خاموش ڪندي
اعلان هزارين مان نه رڳو

شيخ اياز

They have died without their death, thousands of men, not me alone.
In this world, O my country, thousands have gone crazy, not me alone;

All night long eyes did not close and dew fell drop by drop,
If the morning cups its hand then,
In prison, there will be thousands, not me alone;

Why does the moon fill the world with poison,
In these last hours of the night,
thousands wonder, not me alone;

If you say so, I will neither tremble nor cry,
But now let me ask you: how many will you silence,
proclamations are thousands, not me alone;

Time will pass and our luck will turn,
This fire will rage all the more,
Thousands hopes, not me alone.

Shaikh Ayaz the man of Romance, Love, Nationalism and huge vision - Ayaz's poetry played a major role in the development of progressive thinking in the country, particularly in Sindh. He was the very imprint of Shah Latif's mystic poetry and will always be remembered as a great humanist and artist.
