Singer: Zoe Viccaji
Featuring: Sumru Ağıryürüyen
Language: Urdu & Turkish

In connecting musical roots, Zoe Viccaji brings her version of a melody that has traveled across the globe in many forms to now be presented as ‘Ishq Kinara’. She had heard the song in its Turkish equivalent – ‘Üsküdar'a Gider İken’ - and upon delving into the origin of the song, was inspired by not only the melody but the universality of its tune in the way that it has been reinvented in many different cultures across the globe. Given the driving inspiration behind Zoe’s connection with the melody was in her Turkish experience of the song, the composition was bridged with the vocals of Sumru Ağıryürüyen bringing the traditional Turkish song to the fold lending a link to its root. Sumru states that while ‘Üsküdar’a Gider İken’ stems from the old, Anatolian neighborhood of Üsküdar in Istanbul, the Turkish version’s roots connect even further to several other countries - Bosnia, Scotland and beyond. This fact was further confirmed by members of L’Orchestra di Piazza Vittorio in Rome, Italy, who had heard versions of the same melody. The Turkish version of the song primarily dealt with the theme of the despair caused by Loss in the name of Love, however Zoe, in connecting with the song personally, lyrically made her version about the idea of independence and self-realization in the name of Loss. ‘Ishq Kinara’ talks of the last moment of vulnerability as a relationship is severed, and looks on to being complete within one’s Self after the Loss. With an upbeat mixed canvas of instrumentation from Italy, Turkey, Morocco and Pakistan, the song becomes Pakistan’s version of the mysterious melody.

Unhain kaisay koi azaad karay?
Jinhain apni ghulaami ka ilm nahi
Koi kaisay unhain sang lay ke chalay
Jo thamay hain apni hi zanjeerain

Majmay say juda, main akela khara
Jaan paoun toh janoun main apni khata
Bas itni khata, jhoot ko jhoota kaha
Jo dil main tha sab sach keh diya!

Gar woh sun sakain toh main bhi kahoon
Ya iss zulmat-kada mai ab chup rahu
Purane dastoor pe natak chalta rahay
Gar mushkil naheen hai rasta naya

Yay barabari ka sabaq hai har kitaab mai raqam
Kon barabar yahan?  yay kis ko pata
Koi zalim koi mazloom koi aaqa koi gadaa
Koi arabi koi ajami koi banda toh koi khuda!

Dolat-o-ishrat kisi ko wirsay main mili
Toh kissi ko sabr ki talqeen he kahi
Kia yay sheikh ka hai nizaam, khuda ka naheen
Arfa-o-aala ka dastoor, aur usee ki zameen!

Yay deen ka touq mehz ghareeb per hee kyun?
Kay woh umaraa ka lahoo baha na day kaheen
Soch par paabandi laga detay hain youn
Kay sab baybass haqeeqat jaan lain naa kabhee

Iss pay khamosh rehna hai meri khata
Iss zulm ko sehna hai meri khata
Majmay say juda main akela khara
Jaan paoun toh jaanoun main apni khata

Peeri mureedi kay fasanay chaltay rahain
Bad-batkhtee kay bahanay chaltay rahain
Jo sar uthay, kyun ussi ko saza?
Jo chup na rahay,  kyun ussi kee khata?

Woh main hee hoon, dehleez pe para!
Woh main hee hoon, kathehray main khara!
Majmay say juda, main akela khara
Jaan paoun toh janoun main apni khata

Inn ki ankhoun say pattian utaaro zara
In kay adarsh toh sawaro zara
Jab niklain yay jalay ghar doosroun kay
Aainay koh aks apna dikhado zara

Yay thi meri khata, main yay thaa kehnay chala
Majmay say juda mai akela khara
Jan paun toh janu mai paoni khata

Tum haya-o-shariyat ke taqaazon ki baat karte ho
Hum ne nangay jismo ko malboos-e-haya dekha hai
Hum ne dekhain hain ehraam mai liptay kayi Iblees
Hum ne mai-khanay mai kai baar khuda dekha hai

-Unknown

Kaisi bakhshish ka ye samaa hua phirta hai
Sheher ka sheher pareshaan hua phirta hai

Sheher ka sheher musalmaan hua phirta hai

Shab ko shaitaan bhi mangay hai panahain jis se
Subah ko saahib-e-emaan hua phirta hai

Ik barood ki jacket aur naraa-e-taqbeer
Raah-e-jannat asaan hua phirta hai

Poetry by Jalil Haider Lasharie

Hum ne daikhain hain sabz-o-safaid mai taqseem insaan
Aur daikhain hai chaand sitaray ke kafan mai jawan
Kabhi maqtab ki dehleez pe naunihaaloun ka lahu dekha hai
Kabhi barood ki barish, kabhi zulmat ka darya dekha hai

Kabhi daikhain hain qatal-gaahon mai masoom farishtay
Kabhi farishton ko bhi takabar mai bantay shaitan dekha hai
Yahaan jo phirtay hain mukhtalif rangon ke alm uthayay giroh
Jab bahay toh in sab kay sab ka lahu yaksan delha hai

Insaan ko qatal karta insaan dekha hai
Sheher ka sheher musalmaan dekha hai

Narration and Poetry by OMQ

Kaisa ishq hai teray naam pe qurbaan hain magar
Teri har ik baat se anjaan hua phirta hai

Janay ko kisay maar de kafi keh ke
Sheher ka sheher musalmaan hua phirta hai
