This style of singing is called qawwali and Nusrat was known as the "Shahenshah-e-Qawwali" or "Supreme Ruler of Qawwali". His vocal range was well over four octaves and he was extremely prolific. The group surrounding him are not background singers. To his left is Farrukh, his younger brother and widely regarded as on par with Nusrat in vocals as well as the primary composer and arranger of the songs sung by the group. Farrukh's son is Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, who accompanied the group in Nusrat's later years. The other men are his students and various instrumentalists who had been part of the qawwali tradition in one way or another for generations.
Qawwali is a Sufi tradition where songs are used to express one's love for the divine, and frequently turn on a phrase or sentence (a motif, as you called it) that is then expanded and expounded on in various ways, both technical and emotional. The way qawwali concerts (and most classical concerts in India) are structured lend themselves to a constant call-and-response, also called jugalbandi with respect to instrumentalists. This experimentation creates a constant tension that can take a basic raaga (scale) or taala (time signature) and stretch it out into a 20-minute piece that doesn't feel long at all. That way it showcases both the technical expertise of the artists and also keeps the audience engaged - especially when they know what taalas and raagas are being used.
South Asian classical music (in all the different genres and subdivisions) is very cerebral and emotional at the same time. From a very early age, most of us kids who are 2nd generation Indians, Pakistanis, Bengalis, etc. grew up associating classical music with dance and/or instruments (tabla, mridangam, harmonium - the drone that was being played in the front, veena, sarangi, and so many more). The emotional appreciation for music is intrinsically tied into the cerebral aspect - the appreciation of pitch control, the ability to pick out the complexities of a solo percussion piece, or the technical excellence shown by the total mastery over a certain raaga.
That's why many Indians, NRIs (nonresident Indians), and desi expats (AKA yours truly) have such highly tuned ears as we show you in the comments. Not all of us can sing like Nusrat, Shankar, or Shreya, but we can all appreciate both exactly how perfect and exacting their performances are as well as how moving they are to the soul - and exactly how much it takes to convey both at the same time.
Sai Namuduri Wow what an excellent articulation. I was going to type something similar but couldn't have said it any better.
Wow. Very nice info. I was writing down some info, but you have already given enough information. Very good
So articulate
Truly appreciate this well written explain man, good job!
@Haider Akhlaq I never said it had anything to do with Hinduism. read my post again - I didn't mention Hinduism once. And I explicitly stated that the modern qawwal tradition has its roots in Sufi traditions. There are definitely Hindustani and Carnatic influences in modern qawwali singing, but that in and of itself simply goes to show the depth of the relationships between different styles of classical devotional singing in the South Asian subcontinent.
You can recognise Nustars voice if he just says Hello in a crowd of million people. That’s his texture. May his soul Rest in peace. Love from India.
Its like asking a high school student to judge a PhD Doctor. no offense to Carl.
Not just PhD an institution himself !
H.M.Basir Ijaz not just institute just education himself
@@johnsmith3447 haha....nice
Being high school stanadard is a honor infront of majestic
hahahaha
Dude, the background singers are masters, and they are being led by a grandmaster.
100%
Absolutely
Well said right what I was thinking

Shhhh!! You don't talk when nusrat sahb sings!
Well... It's a reaction video... Sooo? Lol
Some times it's beautiful to sit back and relax enjoy and praise God for his creation, whaa gee whaa ustaad.
sorry!
@@cwehden its cool Bro. Beautiful break down of what is perfection, if you could understand the poetry you too would be lost in the heaven's.
Agreed
It's not nusrat fateh ali khan .. it's "USTAAD" nusrat fateh ali khan.... Love from India...brother
Yo chill out he dont mean no disrespect.
for real. im an indian and i really want our desi people to chill the heck out with their expectations of foreigners to treat their beloved heroes the same way they would.
respect and titles are earned. so let NFK impress them and elicit respect instead of you morons forcing it from them.
Fk that shit bro. How are you expecting foreign folks to be vocabulary-sound to the language you speak
@@saurabhdoomra6766 gaand faad Di jayegi angrez ki 😆😆
Yess it,s only ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
The whole group used to practice for 7-8 hours daily. No wonder he is “Ustaad”, means “The Master”. We miss his presence in this world ! Much love and respect.
If you are a singing coach , ustad sahab is music himself .
❤❤
Right
@Hello World whose his brother
He is a gem of Pakistan. Tons of love from India.
Prakash Usha he belong to both of us India and Pakistan ❤️ love India Pakistan
Thanku bhai
a legend....true art... respect.... peace and harmony 🙏 india✌️ pakistan
Thanks
he is a gem of world guys.... he is a gift....
Nusrat is the first man to unite Bangladesh, Pakistan and India together 💜 may his soul rest in peace
Ameen 💓💓
Its not just Singing which made him legend. Poetry need to be equally appreciated. Wish if he had video with lyrics could make him react much more better and could help him understand its not a song. Its different universe.
Wah... kya baat kee hai...!
Ameen
Not only these three countries but the whole world.....
Only man who is beloved to both indians and pakistanies... Sign of unity...
He Loved By Whole Sub Continent Brother His Music Holds Our Emotions
Hey Man, there's a lot more from where he came from. Add String and Junoon.
Thought you were referring to Carl here!! xD
There are more. Mehdi Hasan and Sabri brothers are two of them
@@MrPumpkin1454 right..
If I take the liberty to say:
All singers combined in the world throughout history is just the drop of ocean that's inside Nusrat Sahab.
True
No, listen to kishor Kumar and Pt. Bhimsen Joshi
@@spc9531 you can't compare Nusrat saheb to anyone
@@spc9531Brother, their genre is different from the other. The comparison itself is wrong, but if you remove all the oddness & are adamant to compare then, comparing Nusrat sahab with Kishore da or any singer in the history of time, is like-
comparing Diamond with coal.
When u r heartbroken...it is said...who needs drugs when u have nusrat...i wish u could understand what he is saying
The same bro!! the same!!
this helped me through the heartbreak
People in the comment section really need to relax. He doesn't know what Qawwali is and who NFAK is. He is just trying his best. He's a vocal coach. He judging it like a vocal coach. I think he's quite impressed of NFAK.
Shabana tm to gusa kr gayi 😆
Lol right..
He is not supposed to judge the maestro himself. I don't even consider him dead, Nusrat saheb is still here on earth ....🙏
@@makeitsimple1099 He doesn't even know who NFAK are.
Yesss
...feels so lucky that we can understand everything..wrna is goore jaisa haal hota
Totally agree with u brother 🤣 is bichary ko kya pata Nusrat sahab to Nasha han
Lmao he should have chosen a subtitled version but the music is universal 😂😂😂
😀😀😂
Fun fact : Nusrat saheb used to practice 10 hours of singing everyday
For him i feel its the best feeling and everyday he would have woke up just to do that 🥰
The instrument he is playing is called a Harmonium and a fun fact, the guy in a white waste coat sitting next to Nusrat (on his left) is Fakhar Ali khan, Father of Rahat Fateh Ali.
Not fakhar its farooq ali khan
SyEd TaLeEb AzMi Correction it’s Ustad Farukh Fateh Ali Khan
When we use the title 'ustad' before the name...we don't even take their name from our mouth as a mark of respect...we hold our ears for begging forgiveness... When ustad sings, we shut our mouth and only listen...we go speechless...
Namrata Jain actually this gora not know our Indo Pak traditions, i think we have to guide him.
Ustad was ,ustad is and ustad will always in our hearts ,souls
Namrata Jain what a depiction of word Ustad,,
Aho
Pips Hunter it means the ultimate master...that has an ultimate and immatchable grip of his respected trade...
hes just overhyped by some dumb people i dont see him as ustaad or anything or touching your ears for forgivenes what type of bullshit is that .grow up lady maybe ladies are submissive thats why they talk all these kind of bullshit
There is
Beginner
Learner
Singer
Experts
Artists
Legends
God's of Music
And then there is
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Saab ❤️🙏🏻👑
I disagree
Wow! absolutely! 👌
@@govindrayaacharya3363 Nobody Cares😄 tum dj wala babu Song suna kro NFAK Suna ki Oqat nhi tum jasy burger bachon ki
@@khyzerkhyzer7392 lmao
Nusrat is none
He is a legend
Its very sad that carl cannot understand the lyrics while listening, they are bliss.
This video is of 1985 ,
Event in Birmingham...
You can imagine 34 years back how Ustad Sahab nailed it 😍😍😍😍
Yes bro he is legend much love from India
1993
Loved it. This is actually a toned-down performance of Nusrat. Checkout something where he goes all guns blazing.
You'll never understand the connect that we feel while he is singing. It feels out of this world if u understand what he is saying..♥️♥️ In tears🙏🙏
Every time you sir just "Nusrat", it was painful as well as frustrating...
He's a legend , Sehenshah-e- Qawali(i.e. King of Qawwali) that's what he is referred to and his proper name Ustaad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Sahab.(Ustaad defines high level master or teacher in the world of music).
You really need to know the lyrics to fully enjoy and feel this song..
One of the best song ever created on this planet.
Respect for Ustaad Nusrat Sahab
You would be surprised at the level of respect people have for NFAK in Pakistan and India.. They even avoid taking his name and refer to him by his title 'Ustad', which literally means 'Master'. There will be no one better than him in the business.
Ustad stands for teacher, does it not?
@@rosiebts5494 Yes, the literal translation of ustad is teacher. However, in music it is used to address an artist who has mastered his skills and has acquired perfection (basically, a maestro).
@@rosiebts5494 you can translate it to master or teacher. Because in eastern cultures the teacher is your spiritual master
Just smoke a big blunt and close yours eyes, sit back and enjoy the journey.
Its sad when you need blunts to enjoy the music ... what do you think this is... a friggin drake video???
Bhai dil kibaat kahi
Ahhhh i was thinking the same. So cool yaar.one of the best feelings ever in life.
do you even realize he is talking about alcohol in tnewhole song...nusrat is best enjoyed with a scotch on the rocks sipping quietly in the backyard as you smoke a cigarette
You don't need any stimulus to enjoy this masterpiece..
There is neither a being living nor dead who can rival his greatness❤️
kash hum ne Tan San ko suna hota
you would be astonished knowing this track "halka halka saroor" is sung in 26 versions with different tones by USTAD NUSRAT FATEH ALI KHAN ❤
It's not just his singing that's legendary. The lyrics are heart-piercing too. I wish I could make you understand bc you're just touching the tip of the iceberg here.
Hey bro he is beyond your reaction.... Legend you are listening to.... Love from HINDUSTAN .
he is a true legend........no one with those vocals will ever born
Its not just Singing which made him legend. Poetry need to be equally appreciated. Wish if he had video with lyrics could make him react much more better and could help him understand its not a song. Its different universe.
Great video though
luv from pakistan for u
Shabaash! Well said.
He is much bigger than countries, boundaries and religion... If there is any God exists, it's in his throat... RIP Ustad Nusrat Sahab... You will be always remembered... ❤️
Legends never die
English Lyrics 👇
"This mild intoxication
Is because of your eyes
That taught me drinking
Your love and your longing
Your intoxicating glances
Made me a drunkard
What wine, what intoxication
All this is [due to] your kindness
You served me [wine] with your eyes such
That I have forgotten myself
The whole world is ecstatic, the order of the world is ecstatic
The day is ecstatic, so is dawn and so is evening
The glass, cup and wine are all ecstatic
Because of your intoxicating eyes, everyone and everything is ecstatic
Of all the wines you have in your tavern
Serve me a little from your eyes
I understand your alluring glances
That cause intoxication, instead of wine
Only your love is my life
Neither I know prayers nor ablutions
I prostate whenever you come in front of me
I am a follower of love since the beginning of life
[and] I do not care for piousness or irreligiousness
My head has found your house
Now I do not search for the mosque
My devotion is such devotion
That is not bound by the mosque and the temple
When I see you once
By God, it is no less than a prayer
Only your love is my life
On the day of judgment, I would rise with the scars of your love
Your image would be clinging to my heart on that day
Because
Only your love is my life
Your remembrance is my prayer
[and] your wish is my wish
This is the miracle of my frenzy
That where ever I prostrated
A mosque was made there
On whom would you inflict pain after me?
It is not nice to play with the emotions of sufferers
It is not good to laugh at the mourners
I lost my heart in [just in] play
O my heart is gone!
For God's sake change your glances, else
My heart is gone
I pray to God that you also fall in love with someone
And suffer in separation with hands on your heart
My heart is gone
I lost my heart just in fun
And got the measure of falling in love
I cry because my heart is lost
[but] why do you laugh, what did you get?
Okay then…..
To whom would you inflict pain after me?
How would you take me out of your life?
Where would you cast those arrow-like glances?
Value my friendship
[that] helped you to gain murderous charm
Watch me, O my desire of life!
I am the same suffering "Anwar"
You were not even in your senses at that time
[so] don't argue with me in such a manner
[but] offer thanks to me
That I helped you articulate yourself
This mild intoxication
Is because of your eyes
That taught me drinking ♥
🌟
Deep
Yeh jo halka halka suroor hai .. this light intoxication I have .. is due to ur eyes .. what the poet means is I was non drinker... but your eyes gave me a taste of alcohol and now I am full blown addict of getting drunk .. in simple words extremely smitten by your beauty
Sir ji aap mahaan hain
Ahmar Azam did I upset u In someway
@@midhatkidwai I think he meant that you nailed it.
@@midhatkidwai I believe translated it good...well done🤗
I was about to comment when I read this. I don't think I have to add anything more. Perfectly described. :)
It means , “THIS LITTLE BIT MILD, THIS MILD, THIS MILD, THIS MILD INTOXICATION IS BECAUSE OF YOUR EYES.”
Wow ..what a meaning ...translation
I guss it's not eye... it's site
All qwalis are symobls. In this saki "which distributes wine" is reprentive of "spirtual leader" which gives his knowledge
While the intoxication "sharabi" is the state he felt when he got guide
And "whine" is reprenstative of Islam. In sufism, there is saying that spirtual leader can change hearts with his eyes or there is something in his/her eyes...
So in this he is saying that my spirtual leaders eyes gave me intoxication of Islam...
Change Mild to Gentle.. rest of translation is fine
He sang these qawwalis about 40+ yrs ago. Ustad Ji's singing and lyrics were say ahead of his time❤️
And my voice squeaks just by shouting and I can't speak normally for 2 days again😂 Nusrat is legend🔥
He can do this all day ..cuz he's not shouting bro..
Sir, i really appreciate you reating to HIM but its not just his voice that makes HIM what he is.........you really need to Understand what each word means ............we listen to him when we are depressed,happy,when we need motivation,or when tensed .............everytime we listen to HIM we experience goosebumps ..............please react to the videos having subtitles
Jayesh Joel you are so on point - this song can take me out of a depression with his voice. i didn’t know what the song meant for years but i knew it was a happy/sad/romantic song just from the way he sound. when i found a better translation, it all hit what i was feeling. amazing gem of a song.
"Him" is for the Creator of the worlds. Correction plz
Very well said, bro
True that man...goose bumps guaranteed to just his aalaps...He I listened to tumhe dilagi on loop for 7 times and keeps me high throughout. He pulls you to the core of your soul and that silence n state you are in for few secs after that song is what Sufi saints or saints of any path are in forever. The main purpose of existence of religions.
The devotion is something Ustaad brings to his songs. Never found it in Rahat Fateh Ali Khan even He is a legend on his own.
Original and Translation
Ye jo halka halka suroor hai
This slight exhilaration that exists
Yeh teri nazar ka kusoor hai
Is the fault of your eyes
Ke sharaab peena sikha diya
It taught me how to get intoxicated
Ke sharaab peena sikha diya
It taught me how to get intoxicated
Ye jo halka halka suroor hai
This slight exhilaration that exists
Ye teri nazar ka kusoor hai
It is the fault of your eyes
Ke sharaab peena sikha diya
It taught me how to get intoxicated
Ke sharaab peena sikha diya
It taught me how to get intoxicated
Tere pyaar ne teri chaah ne
My love for you
Teri behki behki nigaah ne
Your intoxicating eyes
Mujhe ek sharaabi bana diya
Have made an alcoholic out of me
Ke sharaab peena sikha diya
It taught me how to get intoxicated
Sharaab kaisi, Khumaar kaisa
What is alcohol, what is intoxication
Yeh sab tumhari nawazishen hain
It is all your generosity
Pilayi hai kiss nazar se tu ne
With what look in your eyes, did you feed it to me
Keh mujh ko apni khabar nahin hai
That I have lost all sense of me
Tere pyaar ne teri chah ne
My love for you
Teri behki behki nigaah ne
Your intoxicating eyes
Mujhe sharabi bana diya…
Have turned an alcoholic out of me
Ke sharaab peena sikha diya
It taught me how to get intoxicated
Tera piyaar hai meri zindagi
Your love is my life
but the translation does not carry the significance with it
@@pakiboyhadrou yeah the translator seams to be a big bhains chor! as they usually are :D
Not "is the fault of your eyes" , but "its due to those"
Bro don't, just don't. Word for word translation won't do it any justice. You'd need to write a parable for each lyric
this is literal translation . And as it goes with literal transaltion , it looses the meaning.
Oo fools you think he is singing,No it's his way of crying....❤💔
This man was a real legend !
Some people are beyond reviewing, let alone by someone who can’t understand what this man means to South Asia.
Hobies K.A.R.D InfiredJams true that, although I wanted him to listen to Nusrat Sahab cuz he thought Rahat was good.
I do my best peace be with you :)
Carl John Franz Carl I don’t think you’re at fault here, people just shouldn’t have requested him so much. Love your channel, keep up the good work!
On the contrary..respect that he tried, even though he doesn't understand!! Well done Carl!
This was a good review. What are you talking about?
You are judging Ustad Nusrat is like that a street soccer player teaching Ronaldo football abilities 😂😂
😂🙏🏻
@@cwehden never mind bro .He was a legend of Pakistan and king of musicians no one can judge him. Indian musicians learn from him watching his videos till in 2019
No he's not
Coz surely he doesn't know #Ustaad.
@@rehaanraees3027 we don't accept ur claim Ustad belong to all three countries "INDIA,PAKISTAN,BANGLADESH "
i appreciate you did a reaction, but this style of singing is way above your knowledge my friend. its not only about the music but most about the lyrics. till you don't understand the lyrics, you will never understand and enjoy the qawwali ..
I disagree. Maybe a person will never understand but there can be no restriction that can be placed on enjoyment. I think its highly egotistic of you to assume to place limits on another persons happiness. I can be standing next to an art expert looking at a painting and I can find it every bit as beautiful as him/her without any of his/her knowledge. Music is an art and art moves people emotionally not logically
@@kamallutchman9657 highly egotistic .. seriously? I totally agree music is art .. this type of singing known as qawwal. Qawwal is not just music, it's the lyrics that Nusrat sahab used that made qawwal popular around the world. So my point was that you partially enjoy qawwal just because of the artistic music but you would have enjoyed even more if you could understand the words!
Sara jahan mast jahan ka nizam mast
Din mast raat mast seher mast sham mast
Khum mast sheesha mast suboo mast jaam mast
Hai teri chashm e mast se har khaas o aam mast
Music to enjoy kiya awaz k nasheb o faraz enjoy kiye lekin aese dilkash alfaz na samajh sake to samjhein inho ne adhe se kuch kam hi enjoy kiya, adam ki ghazal bhi inke sar per se guzar gayi or ye jo beech beech main nusrat sahab tarke lagate rehte hain khoobsurat sheron k wohi to inki qawali ka husn hai
@@noffalpaul700 I agree that increasing knowledge can increase your enjoyment. Your original comment though ended in an absolute statement....."you will never understand and enjoy the qawwali". I still strongly disagree. You have no right to place limits on another persons enjoyment. Maybe their understanding but never their enjoyment.
@@kamallutchman9657 dude do you even realize how stupid you sound saying all that .. im not placing any limit on anyone. I just said what i felt was the right thing to say. And why are you so botherd haan?
You can't judge him... He is legend 🙏🏻🙏🏻

FATHER OF MUSIC AND YOUR LUCKY BRO THAT YOU GOT TO LISTEN USTAD NUSRETA FETEH ALI KHAN,,
I see a lot of comments here that Carl should just be fawning over Nusrat like crazy. People, everyone is entitled to their opinion and their take. If you want to fawn, please make your own fawning video. I, for one, appreciate Carl's honesty and genuine insight - it is really helping me understand and appreciate music at a deeper level.
Theek kaha apne. Aur Jo log criticize kar rahe hae, wo khud samjah nahi sakte iss liye aaen baen shaaen kar raahe hae. Classic music me raag aur unki mashq bachpan se shuru ki jaati hae, aur afaqi qisam ki shairi ke saath mil kar, sur ki maharat mazeed nikhar kar aati hae. Adaigi ke saath saath khoobsurat Shari bhi hae sirf gaiki nahi hoti hamare classici mosiqi meh. Aur zahir har shairi tau cross cultural nahi hoti, khawa kitna achaa turjuma hi kia jae.
Shut ur mouth and don't support this kind of guys like Carl who don't know his life. Judging the teacher. Disrespectful he is. Nub Carl you just born and teaching what is right and wrong, GIVE U BEST ADVICE DEL UR CHANEL
No one can judge this legend Nusrat sahb 🙏!
You are only mesmerized by his singing and waves in his voice and the way he is pronouncing the letters. But I wish you could understand his lyrics and the way he is defining his love for the beloved. It is out of this world bro. The way he is linking his state of mind with the beauty of his beloved is mind blowing man. The way he take us for a ride who understand this language, you can’t understand the feeling man. This is anti depressant dose right there
No talking while god is singing..it's like been in heaven but staying blind folded..love from india🇮🇳🇮🇳♥️..that guy over there is a music itself..ustaad Nusrat Fateh Ali sab jii♥️♥️♥️
Please yar God say mat milaya karo khan sb k samnay koie unko God kahta kasam say wo acha na smjtay in islam No one like God or sab Holy books ma God k jaisa koie nahi.
If you respect Nusrat sahib please respect his religion also.
Sorry if you feel bad.
@@mianwasim5835 fkk u. He meant to say god of singing. Dont say shitt.
Guys stop roasting carl at least he tried to react
100% agree bro...
Agreed but they are also fan of ustad nusrat fateh ali khan will be Better wen Carl injoying quit
Rahat is not sin of nusrat fateh ali khan.. He the nephew
Be listening to Qawwali Carl is going to become a Sufi! :)
jay srivastav no he’s not.
Honestly, this is just normal performance of Nusrat Fateh ali khan, means he is not pushing too high. Seems hes just warming up. There many other videos in which he uses high notes evry 10 seconds.
Looks like he was just starting for 2 or 3 hours performance.
Em Usman exactly.
Just one suggestion, when reacting to "sufi" or classical from India or Pakistan, please dont talk when they are singing.
If you want to comment on something you spotted find a right spot to "stop" and then speak. (I wouldn't stop the video though).
Reason I am saying this is because, these genres are to create trance, a whole aura of divine. When you talk over it, you lose it. Maybe try and absorb it first, feel it and then stop and comment on it.
I like the way you break things down. Good job. :)
Thank God someone said it...... Exaaaaactlyyyyyy
Yes!
Yes pleaaseeeeeeee! U have to basically just dive in but float! Just get lost in there somewhere. Please dnt talk! N STOP ur reactions on Nusrat Sahab if u want to talk
With very respect i donot know the level you are at in terms of coaching but Nusrat vocal ranges and scals had been analyzed,studied by contemprary experts at a very high level ,there had been tremendous amount of work on him in Japan,France and India.he himself was no doubt deserve to be called The Music,truly master of musician in the past century
Nfak was born in Pakistan...but his music was for everyone and forever.....
@@KJ-xf4oh lol......he was born in faisalabad, Pakistan.......where the hell do you get your figures from😂😂
uzair farooq sorry on behalf of this dickhead mate even i know he is from pak but his gharana is from patiala gharana
@@sakshamshukla4512 no worries mate.....but the patiala thing was way before Pakistan...
Brothers, Please don't fight. Music is for everyone. Everything in this universe is Music.
OMG Carl thank you so much for recognizing that Jeff Buckley does know this Pakistani artist and his singing Style and also covered his song as well. But also going through Jeff Buckley's documentaries and interviews and listening to all the songs I realize that before listening to this Pakistani artist he sang very much like every other American singers who were taught in a wide range of of styles like Blues, Jazz, Rock and etc, but only when he heard this artist and went to Pakistan did he inherit some of the essence from Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan which you can clearly hear in His Grace album. Because if you listen to Jeff's songs before and after hearing Fateh Ali Khan his tone has totally changed. Jeff said it himself that Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan style of music saved his life and that the Pakistani artist is his personal Elvis. Unfortunately both great artists died in 1997 only three months apart from each other. R.I.P 😞🙏🏽🙏🏽❤💞💖
Sally Smith hallelujah sally. I love nusrat and i love jeff. Amazing souls. If you don't know the meaning of this song (Qawali) google it and research on it. IT WILL AMAZE YOU what he is singing and what its actually about. :)
When u go through the translation of these lyrics u will cry n forget the other typ of music i think
Nusrat fateh Ali khan is a Pakistani born in *faisalabad* (lyallpur) October 13 1948💜. He is a Muslim. ( Pakistan independence date is August 14 1947💚 ) 1947💚 , 1948💜
Hehehe he is saying that even the background singers are fearless. Even being around 'Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan' Sahab was the highest honour in music.
Ustaad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan is not just a legendary qawaal (singer) but a feeling of joy feeling of sorrow of purity and soul. Understanding the lyrics is a must. ❤️❤️
The piano like instrument is a reed organ called harmonium which is originally from France but has found a home in both classical and light classical music. The percussion instrument is called tabla. The motif is referred to as Sufi singing.
Thanks 👍🏻
One the interesting fact was his popularity in Japan, not only for his music but his resemblance to Laughing Buddha! Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan was born on October 13, 1948. He was a Pakistani musician and was known for his eccentric style of singing qawwalis which is the devotional music of the Sufis.
"Ye jo halka halka suroor hai"
This gentle peaceful feeling
"Ye teri nazar ka kusoor hai"
It's because of your gaze on me
"Ke sharaab peena sikha diya"
It's made me drink alcohol, or it's made me want to drink to cope with the feeling, or recreate it I guess? Because he's chasing that high (which is a big deal in our culture, because alcohol is strictly forbidden and illegal)
Saaqi ki har nigah pe bal kha ke pii gaya
Dancing to every glance, look of the wine-giver, I drank
lehron se khelta hua lehra ke pii gaya
while playing with waves I drank playfully
ae rehmat e tamam meri har khata maaf
oh merciful lord please forgive me for all my wrong doings
mein intaha e shauq mein ghabra ke pii gaya
That I was afraid but still with great pleasure I drank
Peeta bagair izn ye kab thi meri Majaal
That I would drink without prerogative when did I have such courage
Dar pardah chashm-E-Yaar ki shay pa ke pik gaya
With the acquiescence of my lovers veiled eyes , I drank
zahid ye meri shokhi e rindana dekhna
Oh saint, abstinent look at the mischievousness of my drinking
rehmat ko baton baton mein behla ke pii gaya
I drank by befriending the forgiveness of god
Oodi oodi ghataain aati hain mutribon ki nawaain aati hain
Purple clouds are over-cast and the sound of music is all around
kis ke gesoo khulain hain saawan mein mehkee mehkee hawain aati hain
whose tresses are open in the rainy season the air winds are perfumed
aao sehn e chaman mein raqs karain saaz lai kar ghataain aati hain
Let us dance in the garden courtyard the clouds brought music with them
dekh kar un ki aankanion ko adam
After seeing her eyes O adam
maikadon ko hayaain aati hain
I can feel the ambience winds of tavern
paas rehta hai door rehta hai koi dil mein zaroor rehta hai
It stays near,close, it stays far,someone surely lives in my heart
jab se dekha hai un ki aankon ko
Since I have seen her eyes
halka halka suroor rehta hai
I remain mildly intoxicated, I stay in a state of pleasure
Aise rehte hain wo mere dil mein jaise zulmat mein noor rehta hai
My beloved lives in my heart like light lives in darkness
ab adam ka ye haal hai har waqt mast rehta hai choor rehta hai
now this is the state of this man is that all the time he remains intoxicated and ecstatic
Ye jo halka halka, ye jo halka halka,ye jo halka halka
This little bit mild , this mild , this mild
ye jo halka halka suroor hai
This mild intoxication
ye teri nazar ka qasoor hai
is because of your eyes
ke sharaab peena sikha diya
that taught me drinking
Ye teri nazar ka qasoor hai ke sharaab peena sikha diya
This is the fault of your eyes those taught me drinking
ye jo halka halka suroor hai
This mild intoxication
ye teri nazar ka qasoor hai
is because of your eyes
ke sharaab peena sikha diya
that taught me drinking
tere pyaar ne teri chah ne
your love and your longing
teri behkee behkee nigah ne mujhe ik sharaabi bana diya
your intoxicating glances,made me a drunkard
Sharaab kaisi khumaar kaisa, ye sab tumhari nawazshain hain
What wine, what intoxication all this is due to your kindness
pilaai hai iss nazar se tu ne ke mujh ko apni khabar nahin hai
you served me wine with your eyes such that I have forgotten myself
teri behkee behkee nigah ne, mujhe ik sharaabi bana diya
your intoxicating glances,made me a drunkard
Sara jahan mast, mast, mast, mast
The whole world is esctatic
Sara jahan mast jahan ka nizam mast
The whole world is ecstatic,the order of the world is ecstatic
din mast raat mast sehr mast shaam mast
the day is ecstatic, so is dawn and so is evening
mast sheesha mast subuu mast jaam mast
the glass, cup and wine are all ecstatic
hai teri chasm e mast se hai khaas o aam mast
your captivating, magical eyes have made everything every one rich or poor ecstatic
Yun to saaqi har tarah ki tere maikhaane mai hai
Every kind of wine is there in your tavern
wo bhi thori si jo in aankon ke paimaano mai hai
a little bit of that wine that exists in your eyes is in the goblet
Sab samajta hoon teri ishwa kari ae saaqi
I understand your cleverness, the confusing affair you put on well
kam karti hai nazar naam hai Paimane Ka Buss
It is the fault of your eyes gaze, but the blame is put on the wine
teri behkee behkee nigah ne, mujhe ik sharaabi bana diya
your flirtatious looks gazing have made me a drunkard
mere saaqi saaqi mere saaqi
Oh my beloved , Oh my wine giver
Lehra ke jhoom, joohm ke laa muskara ke laa
Bring it with dancing, waving and smiling
phoolon ke ras mai chaand ki kirnain mila ke laa
bring the juice of flowers and add the rays on the moon also
kyun jaa rahi hai rooth ke rangeen ye bahar
Why are you leaving unhappily when this atomosphere is colorful
jaa aik martaba isay phir warghala ke laa
Just once go and bring it again
Sagar shikan hai sheikh bala nosh ki nazar
The wine goblet is cracked is the sight of a misfortunate reward
sheeshe ko zair e daaman e rangii chupa ke laa
By hiding bring a colorful dress to the mirror
Kehte hain umar e rafta kabhi lottee nahin
They say that age, time which is gone never comes back
jaa maikade se meri jawani utha kay laa
I say that go and bring back my youth
mere saaqi saaqi mere saaqi
Oh my beloved , Oh my wine giver
Mein ne maana janab peeta hoon
Majesty I aceept that I drink
zindagi ka azaab peeta hoon
I drink the pains of life
baan ke khaana kharab peeta hoon
I become a ruined and drink
roz e mehshar hasab ho na sake issi liye be hasab peeta hoon
the day of judgement cant be predicted that is why I drink without counting
mere saaqi saaqi mere saaqi
Oh my beloved , Oh my wine giver
Jaam hai mahtaab hai saaqi
Oh beloved there is wine and moonlight
sara mausam sharaab hai
all the atmosphere, season has become alcohol
baaz lamhat aise hote hain
there are some moments without you
jiss mai peena sawab hai saaqi
in which drinking is reward beloved
mere saaqi saaqi mere saaqi
Oh my beloved , Oh my wine giver
Achi pii lee kharab pii lee
Drank good , drank bad drank in good times , drank in the bad times
thi aag misal e habab pii lee
Just drank to satisfy fire inside
aadat hai ab to nasha na kaif
now it has become habit, no intoxication and no high
paani na piya sharaab pii li
drank wine, alcohol instead of water
Nasha imaan hota hai suraahi deen hoti hai
Intoxication is belief, the flask jug is the faith
jawani ki ibadat kis qadar rangeen hoti hai
youths devotion to whatever it is colorful beautiful
tumhara husan agar benaqaab ho jaye
if your beauty gets exposed before everyone
beauty is not lifelong if everyone understands this
har aik chehra khuda ki kitaab ho jaye
then every face will become beautiful in this world just like the book of god
jo qaaiday se na ho to fazool hai sajda
the worship without value, respect is waste
adab ke saath khata bhi sawaab ho jaye
Those who live with respect for them even mistakes become rewards
sharaabion ko aqeedat kai is qadar tum se
drunkards are attached to you so much that
jo tum pila do to paani sharaab ho jaye
even if you will give them water it will become wine
Dil us ka namazi ban jaye
Their heart will start to pray
aankh us ki gulabi ho jaye
his eyes will become rosy , rose like
jis ko tu mohabbat se daikhe
the one whom you will look at with loving eyes
saaqi wo sharaabi ho jaye
Beloved he will become druk, drunkard
mere saaqi saaqi mere saaqi
Oh my beloved , Oh my wine giver
Yun to saaqi har tarah ki tere maikhaane mai hai
Every type of wine is present in your tavern
wo bhi thori si jo inn aankon ke paimaano mai hai
little bit of that wine which is present in your eyes is in the goblet
Sab samajta hoon teri ishwa gari ae saaqi
I understand your cleverness very well
kam karti hai nazar naam hai Paimane ka
it’s the fault of your eyes gaze but the blame is put on the wine
teri behkee behkee nigah ne, mujhe ik sharaabi bana diya
your flirtatious looks gazing have made me a drunkard
Tera pyar hai meri zindagi, teri yaad hai meri bandaagi
Your love is my life, your memories are just like prayers
Tera pyar hai bas meri zindagi
Your love is my life
Na namaz aati hai mujh ko na wuzu aata hai
Neither I know prayers nor ablutions
sajda kar leta hoon jab saamne tu aata hai
I worship, pray whenever you come in front of me
kyunke bas meri zindagi tera pyar hai
Because my life is only to love you
Mein azal se banda e ishq hoon
I am a true lover , servant of love since the beginning of life
mujhe zuhd o kufr ka gham nahi
I do not care for piousness or religious restrictions
mere sar ko dar tera mil gaya
my head has found your home
mujhe ab talash e haram nahin
now I don’t have any need to search for heavenly place
meri bandagi hai wo bandagi jo ba-qaid-e-dair-o-haram nahiin
my devotion is such devotion that is not bound by mosque or temple
mera ek nazar tumhen dekhnaa baa-Khudaa namaaz se kam nahiin
when I just see you once , by god it is no less than a prayer, its equal to prayer
bas meri zindagi tera pyar hai
My life is only your love
Tera naam loon, naam loon, naam loon
I will take your name
Tera naam loon subh o shaam tera naam loon
I will take your name morning and evening

@@cwehden well it's just the half ..... Song itself is so long ...I searched online for the translation ...and this was the closest what I can find ....p.s love your work .
Hi Carl,
Love to see you exploring so deeply into the Indian Classical music. Ustaad (master) Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan saheb is one of the greatest singers to have practiced the qawwali genre and he hailed from Pakistan. The gentleman sitting next to him in the white jacket was his younger brother and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan's father.
Qawwals (musicians practising the qawwali form of music) don't just sing for the sake of performances. It's a way of connecting with the almighty and has a high level of spirituality associated. Qawwalis can be easily witnessed across mosques (but not limited to). In Sikhs and Hindus we have Shabad and Kirtan/bhajan genres of music which are again based on the Indian classical music and can be witnessed across Gurudwaras and Temples respectively.
On the point about the long duration of performances, these singers (purists) practise music in some way, every waking moment of the day. It's a part of their personality and comes out naturally without any apparent efforts.
The gist here is that a performance is not the topmost priority for such purists. They live the art they practise. Public performances, fame and wealth are all incidental.
Couldn't have said any better.
Rightly said bud!!
Sparsh Padiyal rahats father was younger than ustaad nusrat fateh ali khan
@@AliHasan-tl1bp Really sorry for the mistake. Will update it correctly. Thanks for pointing out :)
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Was From Pakistan
The guy in white waistcoat (in middle) is father of Rahat Fateh Ali Khan and brother of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. In some "qawalis" you can see young Rahat singing.
No one could ever achieve the level of Nusrat saab. No one can sing like him. The legend
@Hazard Hawk Bro he sings a type of music qawali or sufiana and no one could do that at the level of Nusrat saab. He is just mind blowning. The grip on raagha (a musical term) and also the poetry. You can just watch the review of the people who worked with him. Of course they know music better than me and you will then understand.
A R Rahman said he was a nervous wreck to sing with the great Khan Sb. when he visited Pakistan
AR Rahaman is primarily a music director and an occasional singer.
*I appreciate your effort, but you aren't supposed to react to Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, you just listen to it and amaze yourself.*
Joshua Barrios the lyrics mean so much to his style, can't react if you can't understand what's he saying aswell
@@hamadrashid2285
He's a vocal professor he doesn't need to understand the lyrics to react to a voice.
The thing is that even if he did understood the lyrics and being a vocal professor or whatever, he still can't react to Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.
As i said in my comment you don't react to Kowwali Shehn Shah no matter who you are.
Joshua Barrios agree
Joshua Barrios Its not just Singing which made him legend. Poetry need to be equally appreciated. Wish if he had video with lyrics could make him react much more better and could help him understand its not a song. Its different universe.
by being amazed you are still reacting so don't tell people not to react, everyone has right .
The main line of the song means.... "The little dizziness I have its because of your eyes because of those eyes i have became a drinker."
This particular genre of music is called the "Qawwali" (a form of Sufi devotional music) and this man right here is the King of Kings of Qawwali aka "Shahenshah-e-Qawwali"
Bro u r reacting to nusrat sab... the ultimate singer south asia ever produced. Ur badluck u are not introduced to surgums, thumries, taal, lay etc etc...apart from that u dont understand the lyrices...
I am happy u r giving respect to him. He died i 1997, not even a single day passed of my life without atleast listening one song from nusrat sab
Ye jo halka halka suroor hai- This mild tipsiness that exists.
Ye teri nazar ka kasoor hai- It is all the fault of your eyes.
Ke sharab peena sikha dia- Taught me to be a drunk.
Tere pyar ne tere teri chah ne- your love, your affection
Teri behki behki nigah ne- your raving eyes
Mujhe ek sharabee bana dia- made me a drunk
Exact translation. Liked it
Nice but the English language doesn’t do it justice :)
That feeling of being high' is all your eyes fault' that makes me like a drunk.
@@mohammadmalik2957 ofc english cant beat urdu
Let's not be political here but without English nothing is possible here 🤣
Qawwali gain international exposure through the work of Ustaad Nusrat Fateh Ali khan khan sahab, he's legend !
Qawwali unite us(India, Pakistan & Bangladesh) ❤
I once shook hands with Nusrat after a concert and it was funny seeing him stood up !
He is father of singer! So called Ustaad. His poetry is marvelous too.
don't worry about the hate comments man, i don't understand why people are being so naive. love the vid man keep on doing thanx
The person in the white jacket is nusrat 's brother and Rahat fateh ali khan's father. The instrument that they are playing is a harmonium. This style of music is called quawwali. It is very common in the subcontinent to keep music in the family where the entire family trains and develops their own style and it becomes their signature.
The backup singers are master's of their art in their own right. But they're in the presence of a Grandmaster, a musical genius if you will.
9:22 it is rightly said "Don't try this at home" 😂
LOL
LOL
Lol
Mate he’s Pakistani singer and Pakistan is very rich in music and late Nusrat was legend
No hope. His following is mostly Indian. So whatever he will say, people will tell him something else.
Yeah apologies!
Carl John Franz no worries mate you doing great job I just corrected you coz mostly people in west think music in India like a religion but truth is Pakistani music is so strong pure and accent wise we so spot on India got millions of singers but Pakistani only few but they more affected singing wise and famous world wide Sufi music qawali its a base and in Pakistan mostly singers they good in this so other songs is like a peanuts😂
No doubt dear.
@@emusman5225 lol what do you mean, this guy is worshipped in Pakistan, anywhere public transport, restaurant you go this song will be playing,😂especially on 14thbaugust, his national song Pakistan Pakistan is always in tribute videos to the people and the army. He's the pride of Pakistan 🇵🇰
That beat is hypnotic. I love the rasp in his voice, for me it adds gravitas. Great video.
you dont have the audacity to judge a legend
Love from Nepal, always for ustad Nusrat.
Ma pani Ustad ji ko thulo fan hu.
Aich bro, ma pani fan ho ustad ko
@@Chadeshwor Sahi ho Sahi ho. Sheenshah-e-qawaali Ustad NFAK. Mero 60% music time nai Ustad kai songs lai jancha.
Wait ! What ? Do you really know what you are doing . You are reviewing a legend .
He is not reviewing him. He is just reacting to it as voice coach.
Great music!
Balaj Alamtab hahaha
@@balajalamtab5856 😂😂😂😂😂
@Rana Ali Akhtar Alam Khan bharway do u own them? They are world renowned singers and anyone can comment on them. Besides, he is not reviewing him, he's only reacting.
Bro u can only react when he sings dont judge...he is beyond Music..he can sing qawali..gazals...pop...rock..romantic...he is Music himself...Legend of legends...love n respect for him... from IN!!
Qawwali is a different level of commitment my man. Not anyone can justify a Qawalli, the energy, the distinctions, the vulnerability of the voice, the improvisation. Even now when someone tries to cover his qawwali, one person can't do it. There is only one like him. The musicians at the back are his family, masters at their craft.
Music has no boundaries he s Pakistani though ...but v much loved by Indians n he connects both countries beautifully...same his legacy taken by Rahet fateh Ali
Indeed ❤
you r true pakistani. and every pakistani neighbour should have a spirit and ideology like you. we love pakistani artists and you love ours. it's very balancing
Thank you..i really think so whatever i said...music art films songs stars bollywood pak singers n.dramas connects us
Idk about Rahet fateh ali khan taking up the legacy of ustad sahab.. especially since he ruined the masterpiece of ustad sahab, giving them bollywood colours.
I now completely avoid listening to Rahat fateh ali khan.
Well actually.. We Indians don't really consider Pakistan an extrinsic.. because It had been a part of India in past.. The Culture in both the Countries originated thousands of years ago and is respected and followed today also.. It's been only 71 years since Pakistan got seperated from India.. But the spirituality, the art, The Culture will always be respected as souvenir of peace.
Seems like a 9year old
Judging Ronaldinho’s touches.
Reaction is the only thing anyone can give to this legend
😂
😂
Haha.
so u don't know qawwali and u don't know harmonium? and ur in to music career? wow! hats off! bravo.
Brother with respect it is just like moon judging the sun. Expressions are meant for the word delivered of which you have no idea. Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan is beyond music.
Ye jo Halka halka suroor hai ( this slight high)
Ye teri nazar ka kusoor hai (is fault of your glance (there is no perfect translation of nazar in english but it is like when you look at someone in a romantic sort of way))
Ki sharab(alcoholic drinks in general) peena sikha dia
( that taught me to drink- here he doesnt mean drink literally but saying like her eyes are like a drink that gives him high)
Teri pyar ne teri chah ne, (your love and your desire)
teri behaki behaki nigaah ne,(your wandering eyes)
Mujhe ik sharaabi bana dia (made me a drinker)
Sharab is term for alcoholic drinks in general and sharaabi is the one who drinks
Also it is difficult to translate the poetic side of this song..you must learn urdu/hindi to understand these songs and trust me you'll be amused how meaningful lyrics can be.
Hope it helps :)
The instrument is called Harmonium and Ustad Fateh was a legend
While you were commenting, Ustad himself asked you to 17:16 *mujhe dekho khwahishe jane jan* ( _to look at him_ ), while you were talking about 90s 17:26 *tumhe itna hosh tha jab kahan* ( _you didn't have wisdom, you were naive at that time_ ), you kept talking 17:36 *na chalao is tarah tum zaban* ( _Don't speak_ ) *karo mera shukriya maherban* ( _thank him_ ) *tumhe bat karna sikha diya* ( _he taught you how to speak_ ).. That's the greatness of the Ustad.
Nursat fateh ali khan is from Pakistan love from india
Abey kahan haath maara hai BC.. NFAK teri smjh or pakad se bahar hai bhai..
absolutely.
haha best comment.
Atleast he is more qualified than you are. He is a voice coach and he is just reacting to it, not criticising.
Hahahahahahahaha LMAO
thinking the same thing 💕 Kohinoor of Pak 💕 RIP Legend 💔
ustad nusrat ji is the saaki i drink with every breath. i wish i cud have sat in his mehfil just for once in my life.
its rare to fall in love with someone u've never met. just like his breath touches my soul, i humbly offer a beautiful satrangi chaadar to him. love from india to the one and only ustaad saahib 🇮🇳🙏🏻🙏🏻
you needed to read the lyrics and listen quietly. that's the best way to listen to him. i don't speak his langage, urdu. i am native bengali. yet i find him mesmerizing. he is beyond language, religion or border
You dont need to judge the legend or describe him. His beyond human imaginations
