TRANSLATION AND MEANING:
Andre my man love from Pakistan 🇵🇰 and Thank you. For you and other listeners - It is almost impossible to capture the emotion of this song in any other language and originally it is much longer. But it is a soul shaking experience to listen to this while understanding the context and meaning, here is a rough english translation and my attempt at explaining the context of the excerpt used here:
SANSON KI MALA PE SIMRUUN MAIN PI KA NAAM
I bead my beloved's name on the garland of my breaths (with every breath I take, I take His/Her name to adorn myself in the most beautiful garland made of His/Her name)
PREM KE RUNG MEIN AISE DOBI BUN GAYA AIK HE ROOP
In the color of love, I drowned myself in such a way that we became one (enthralled in His/Her love to a point that the two of us are indistinguishable)
PREM KI MAALA JAPTE JAPTE AAP BANI MEIN SHAYAAM
Beading the garland of love my beloved's name I myself became God (SHAYAM)
(in pursuit of this love I forgot about my own physical and spiritual existence)
PREETAM KA KUCH DOSH NAHI HAI, WO TO HAI NIRDOSH
My beloved is not guilty He is innocent he is blemish less (Do not blame Him/Her for my transgressions and claims, he/she is the most pure)
APNE AAP SE BAATEIN KER KE HOO GAYI MEIN BADNAAM
It is by talking to myself that I got a bad repute , bad name (from what you see, people are justified to think I am insane)
JEEVAN KA SHINGAR HAI PREETAM, MAANG KA HAI SINDOOR
My beloved is the beautification and adornment of life and vermilion in my hair (His/Her glory is unmatched, and beyond your comprehension - he/she exists in all things beautiful and is my pride)
PREETAM KI NAZROON SE GIR KER JEENA HAI KISS KAAM
If fallen from the eyes of my beloved, what is the point of living then (His/Her approval is all that I need, do not care about any of you/ anything else)
SANSON KI MALA PE SIMRUUN MAIN PEE KA NAAM
I bead my beloved's name on the garland of my breaths (with every breath I take, I take His/Her name to adorn myself in the most beautiful garland made of His/Her name)
Wonderful, thank you.
Thank you very much! Love from India!
Thank you so much for the translation!!!
Thanks for the translation I truly love reading lyrics in other languages. It really does add a whole level of emotion and meaning when listening
Even the lyrics are metal!!!
written by a Hindu saint sung by pakistani muslim while a sikh guy is enjoying in front seat... and now a christian has remastered it.
i love this collection of religions lol 😭
FR literally
Now imagine the same cooperation happens in science, humans would be wandering among the stars by the year 2100 !, guaranteed... Millions of times better than wars, debates, and conflicts if you ask me...
How do you know hes christian? western countries dont have one type of religion like the rest of the world. We are advanced societies.
@@noterrormanagement Bro I think u only know about western world.. there are plenty of religions around the world do some research before commenting..
I think Andre has found his niche
No such thing in art
I dont think his band mates would approved though 😂
This niche will be mainstream, if he come out with more Hindi music

This is not a niche, it's a calling!
Dropping a comment so that everytime someone likes it, i can come back and listen to this master piece
Stop back by here and treat yourself to another listen my good friend.
Enjoy your weekend with the song ❤

Nusrat was a powerhouse, but the other vocalist was unbelievable. Those sustained notes and micro notes, and inflections were divine. I have never heard anything like it before. Blown away.
That's his brother. The whole troupe is family basically.
Nah Nusrat is the man. The second guy comes in so filthy though. My praise to whatever praise they're giving👐
His name is Atta Fareed, just as brilliant as Nusrat Fateh Khan in my opinion.
Seriously man. Mind blowing stuff.
What caste are these guys from?..
That guy's solo was so good, I wanted to throw bills at my screen.
Hahhahahahahaha. Genuinely funny!
Gold standard humour this
Baaa haaa 😂😂😂
Underrated and hilarious comment
Nusrat fateh ali khan ❤
Most people will not realise Andre's genius behind this arrangement. He literally recomposed the song to fit into the western musical lingua, while preserving the eastern essence and distilled the best of both traditions.
Oh.
after finding the original i heard how much work he put into it
I did realise it. I'm a professional singer
Oh!, we get he is sick as fuck :)
Well said
Pleasantly surprised to find this used in the Netflix series Crashing Eid
Which episode?
Right
which episode
As a Pakistani and a HUGE metal fan in general this is probably one of the best things I have ever heard.
Hello , why they are trowing money on them at 3:16 ? i ask here cause your Pakistani
@@martinluc2361 Appreciation for the art, a form of a tip.
Like you are playing good music, here have some money.
Facts 💯 bro
Our religions may be meant to separate us, but metal UNITES!
@@muhammad-brkhia-hashmi-2812 you will never understand why you are wrong.
I did not know I needed pakistani folk metal in my life until I listened to this song. Voice is epic. Greets from Argentina
Escuchate "Hamd (Louange à Dieu)" de Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan (28:49 min), o "Az Hoosne Malihe Khud" de Sabri Brothers. 19:31 min.
Con buenos auriculares, son verdaderos viajes.
The actual genre is called Qwalli
Ey! Otro argento con buen gusto!
Sale escuchar a Andre con asadito de por medio?
@@darcodraconius9140 de una!! Asadito con falafel jaja
This song has a deep-rooted history, it was initially written by Mirabai in devotion to lord Krishna, and when sung by Nusrat Saab it united 2 nations and 2 religions in a beautiful way, now thanks to you, the number is 3.
No it wasn't, there is no proof of it being written by Meera. The used language doesn't even matches with Meera's works which are mostly in Brij Bhasha.
@@craftyunicorn4291 who said Meera Bai's work was in Braj bhasha? Mind you she was a Rajputni , she could also speak khadi boli and meera bai was more like a wanderer so was well versed in Khadi boli , bundeli , Braj Bhasha , Hindustani .
Edit :- There's no prominent work of her in Urdu though.
@@craftyunicorn4291regardless of this being a work of Meera, the lyrics clearly show that the slng was written for Lord Ram/Krishna which makes the comment half correct atleast
@@craftyunicorn4291 there's direct reference to Shyam and Sindoor.. So it clearly has Hindu origins... Just pointing it out if you were trying to discredit it.
@@whentheimposterissus8376 there was no urdu back then. Hindustani developed from khadi boli and that was politically divided into Hindi and Urdu.
Original poem from Meerabai in devotion to Hindu God Krishna. Retaken sweetly by Ustaad Nushrat Fateh Ali Khan and now remastered by Andre Antunes. Simply awesome ❤
Jai Shri Krishna
Jay Shree Krishna 🙏🚩
Yeah
Stop the 🧢
@@vibin4871 lol what cap? Only verifiable facts spoken here.
@@vibin4871 wtf bro? What 🧢? Do some research
This is Andre's masterpiece. 7 months and I keep coming back for it. 7 years and I'll be here. It's so, so good.
Same. It's incredible piece.
You and me both
It's simply ASTONISHING, what a composition, and what singers, just freaking love it!
You're so right.
This is truly a masterpiece.
In Tokyo 1988 when he sang, the Japanese audience was so overpowered by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan they said this was the "Singing Buddha"
This metal version is really awesome 👌
SONGFACT: this song is not written by the singer himself. This is actually a hindu devotional poetry written by Meera Bai, 16th century poet in India.
SONGFACT #2: she is known to be the epitome of devotion to the supreme lord. Being an ardent Krishna devotee this "Bhajan" aptly conveys her love for the "Krishna-ALL ATTRACTIVE".
They must 've had a devine experience
Can you share the video link ?
Singing Buddha he wouldn't have liked it as he is a Islamist. And extremist one to
Dude playing the harmonium low key comes out of nowhere and unleash a bridge that could shatter glass off the windows!
That sounds Epic.
Haha! so so true!
Dammit who the hell is this vocalist? He is the greatest I’ve ever listened to. Those ranges, high to extremely low and extreme high again dayumm, is he even a Human? Holy shit man, he’s not from this world, I’ve been listening to the music since my childhood and im 33 rn, and I declare this guy greatest of all time. Oh man ❤
Nusrat fateh ali khan he was a pakistani singer and the greatest maestro of all time.
Indian subcontinent has produced some of the GREATEST artists ever. Either Devotional or Secular Music you name it and Indian Musicians have it. Nusrat Fateh Ali khan - this legend - gave his voice to another 16th century legendary female Hindu Sage "Meera Bai" . This song is basically showing her Last ultimate extent of SELFLESS LOVE to Lord Almighty who Hindus call *"Shree Krishna"* 🙏🚩👑 .
Another Legendary singer is Late "Lata Mangeshkar" . If you would ever hear her vocals then you'll start questioning music itself. She is known as shadow of "Goddess of Music" all over Indian subcontinent.
One of the legends produced by Indian Subcontinent whose singing will make even an athiest cry for God's love . There are various ways in which people from Indian subcontinent declare their love for God , either see him as our Father or Protective elder brother or even as our Mother . Some sects view God Almighty (who Hindus call as Shree Krishna🙏) as their long lost lover as the souls of mankind yearns for the love of their beloved (God in this case) . This Song is also of a 16th century Indian female Saint MEERA BAI who composed it to show her undying , selfless and PURE love for Shree Krishna🙏.
Singers from Indian Subcontinent considers singing for Almighty as a prayer which is like a sweet admiration of lovers.
Both Hindu Saints and Muslim Saints pften declare their undying love for God (who hindus address as Shree Krishna🙏 ) with Romance laced in prayers. But this romance or Love towards God is DEVOID of lust , greed and ego .
Both Hindu saints (Bhakti Saints) and Muslim Saints (Sufi Saints) would compose songs in praise of God almighty.
As in our culture our "soul" is viewed as a female and Shree Krishna🙏 as the Supreme masculine energy .
@@tamarabenjamin2762how hard is it to call him pakistani
He's a Pakistanian Singer Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, he has tons of Masterpieces, most of his work to this day is used as a remix or remake in Bollywood
I'd very gladly buy an album of you metalizing folk music from around the globe. Please do it, your musical taste and hability are superb.
I had that same thought listening to this.
Seconded
absolutely he should make an album of this sort. I will buy it any time
Me too. Make it happen.
Decent Idea. %100 perc. agreed.
Hey met a guy from india and he sent me here epic shit gotta love it!
What Vocal strength at 2:25.
The whole party of Ustad Nusrat was exceptionally talented. There is a segment of Tabla Solo in his qawali of Dama dam mast qalander..its superb 👌
Lyrics of a bhajan , sung in Kawali , cover by metal , Music truly knows no bounds . Love and appreciation from India
100 % - true.. MUSIC has no boundaries..
Yai koi Bhajan nahi h chutiye it's a love song or kavali
This is what happens when all the wonderful things comes together insynch outputting a masterpiece effortlessly... Coming directly from soul
Not Kawali. This style of singing is called Thumari
@@navnit99 thumari.. hamari. Kisi ki bhi. Still beautiful lol
Long live Indian and Pakistani Metal! I would buy an entire album of this!
So would I. The singing and guitar are perfectly balanced together and its magical.
U should check out bloodywood if u want indian folk metal..they did release an album this year and its amazing
@@goofy5607 more like rap than folk.
I actually would too
@@goofy5607 I wanted to like them but it just didn't float my boat. Thanks for the recommendation though, I'm always interested in hearing interesting music
I actually discovered NUSHRAT FATEH ALI KHAN on the Natural Born Killers Soundtrack. He also worked with Peter Gabriel on the song "In Your Eyes" (Actually, they worked together a lot). Definitely worth looking into. RIP
Remind me to come here again.
You should rewatch now
come / 5 april 2024
Firstly it is a spiritual hymn written by a great Indian devotee Meera Bai to her lord (Lord Shri Krishna), then it is sung by legendary Pakistani singer Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Sahab, that too in the form of a qawwali. And now in the modern age of heavy metal music its remixed version is truly a mesmerizing example of it. Truly music has no boundaries, it is free from any bondage.
brilliancy spoken...blessings
@@miketaulbut7568 very true
Really 😯
@@dhruvtyagi7351 yupp brother
Calling him a singer puts him in the same category as other singers. Pakistanis call him ustaad, which means Master.
You made Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan come alive again ❤️❤️❤️
Rest in peace nusrat fateh ali khan
He was never dead to us for those who had him in our hearts
@@Senator107 respect from kuwait
He was never dead honestly :) ..
Such a magnificent voice - sad that he’s gone
Completely re arranging a masterpiece from completely different country,language,genre and era without losing the essence and meaning of the song is just outstanding..Hats off and huge respect.
Эта невероятная гармония вокала и металла прошибает в самое сердце!
your past few videos have taken this format from meme-type material to some incredible works of art. The writing on this one is fantastic!
%100 Agree
me too
X3, and both formats veryyy cool 👍🏻
some memes are the high art too.
absolutely
Happy Diwali. Never have I heard such an original remix of Nusrat before, this is mind blowing. Nusrat collaborated with many artists and produced Qawwali in pop genres to spread the music and message. He would be so proud of this. Please do more remixes. Love from England.
Sir it would be so nice to read if you give a little more respect to the legend by writing 'Ustad' before his name , or by simply writing 'Nusrat sahab'.
Love from India 🙏💙
i´m blown away. a bit drunk and stoned, but this was certainly not a waste of my time. Shit was real - - dammit
T series also copied most of his qwalis in songs
@@muhammadusama9778 This song was written by Mirabai. It's not copying, They licensed it or interpreted the Legend Nusrat sahabs music.
@@tycoon..3234 sir ja gan mara
this went WAY harder than it needed too; i love it.
This song clip being used in a netflix programme crashing eid on 2nd episode which made me to look for it . Great job man
Ditto
This guy is from Pakistan but we Indians loved him like he was our own . Pakistan and India have had issues in past but damn they have good musicians.
I am happy for you discovered him inspite of being a non Hindi speaker . You also did justice to this song .
Afghans too
Beautiful how music and art (love) can transcend everything else
OUTf*ckinSTANDING, MAN!!! Woooooohooo!
hey there, i am from Pakistan. India and Pakistan are neighbors and both people want to live peacefully its just politics and army does not want us to live in harmony, i hope things get better in future
@@wildae. 🤣
This shows how often oriental scales are used in metal music. And how close metal is to folk and country music worldwide.
Exactly!! (Except this scale is just natural minor, which is also common in western music)
This makes me wish for an Andre Antunes and Arany Zoltan crossover
Alternatively, it shows us that metal isn’t as unique as many would like to believe.
@@Pit_Lord Right. Metal and other kinds of rock music are mostly based on simple riffs and usually have no melody for vocals (some vocal parts have only one note). And the same can be told about folk music. One simple traditional riff can have an infinite number of lyrics variations. A real song has a melody and meaningful lyrics while sung couplets don't.
Qawwali has always had similarities with rock.
What a GEM have I just found. Being a Pakistani and a metal lover, Andre Antunes, you have made one of my life's wishes come true to add another life to the voice of legend Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. Stay blessed Andre.
Saw this posted on Pakistani VEVO as well!
Reaching so many people with this powerful music
Please try to cover INTENSE Sufi songs like these over a course of a year .So that I can listen to them for the rest of my life n die peacefully . Because this is EPIC !!!
God bless you ! Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
Other one that you can cover is Ali Ali.
Sufi Songs?
Oh what historians made us believe about our ownselves. I'm not surprised!
Petition for an hour long version of this!
Оооо! I love him since 1994, delicate sensibilities and colossal energetic. I'm from Moscow and I'm russian orthodox, this music smashed my heart into pieces. Thank you!!!!!!
Woah!!! The emotional ride this collab offers is just something else.
Great work done!
When you see an art like this all you can do is adore it. For some it might just be some other song but for some the song in itself in an emotion. Couldn't help but just smile and enjoy this gem of a collab.
Again, well done.
This guy is a legend with timeless voice. Love from India.
are you really Vivek?
@Emotional Damage bot
Every time you demonstrate you're part of the class of musicians who don't just cover (which is fine don't get me wrong), but you synthesize something entirely incredible while still being seriously complimentary to the source material. Juliaplaysgroove is another who comes to mind, imo.
Agreed. Kiffness too
Ooh havent checked her out in a minute, I just remember her doing bass covers
She does covers yeah but she consistently elevates every track she touches imo. Like I can't listen to Dua Lipa unless it's her version at this point.
That's why I love them. Other than the "Karen" videos, these are a beautifully respectful reinterpretation of interesting music around the world. I have gone on from these videos to look at the regional music of each area....like a personal music appreciation course.
That’s the difference between Andre and, say, Leo Moracchioli. Leo always sounds like he’s he’s just having fun and kidding around (nothing wrong with that, again), but Andre sounds like he takes the stuff he covers very seriously.
Please don't ever stop making collabs like this. This is what the world needs.
L'arrangement d'Andre est kiffant ! La voix de Nusrat est carrément mise en valeur. Un morceau à ré-écouter avec plaisir.
The slide and distortion of a metal guitar just lends itself so PERFECTLY to the discreet note structure of Indian AND Pakistani folk music. This isn't a meme of a joke. It's a genuine fusion discovery. Thank you for doing it with such respect.
This will be remembered as remix of century 🔥🔥
Agree. I have been listening this for 3 hours, going to bed now and start in the morning where I left 😁
🤘🏻🤘🏻
i literally was shocked to hear this from pak, man no words to describe it, its now been hours and hours now and still I wanna hear it only more, btw I'm from india but still talent must be respected no matter what even across borders
By far one of the best arrangement, if not the best piece of metal i heard lately. Just can't stop listening to it. Thank you so much for your genius arrangement.
Nusrat had one of the most amazing voices ever to be found on this planet... Rest in Peace dear angel of Music!
you are right , He is one of the most amazing voice

Everything you touch becomes a masterpiece. It's like a Midas touch, but an Andre touch instead
It was already a masterpiece though.
A metal touch
Regarding Midas... I oftenly say Phil Collins has the Sadim touch, the Midas touch on the contrary: everything he touches turns into poo.
it's already a masterpiece and Ustad(Master) Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan is an Evergreen legend🥲
I found this channel when RUclips randomly recommended me the 'why are you closed' song. I am so glad I explored your music, this is ridiculously amazing and it made my day. Thank you so much.
Какая-то магическая музыка. Смотрю этот ролик на повторе и читаю комментарии. Раз 30 уже сначала слушаю и не надоедает…
Andre doesn’t just cover songs he artistically transforms them into something familiar but entirely new. He’s like the Andy Warhol of metal.
That’s dope
except andre has talent whereas warhol doesnt
Really, all good until the last line. Warhol is more like a video reaction youtuber. He literally has a video reaction while eating a burger
Warhol was a cheap, insipid coke head. Don't do my man Andre like that. Andre is an absolute genius. His arrangements and metal renditions of folk music is just superhuman.
2:33 leaves me speechless. the vocals are out of this world! and the metal arrangement supports it so very well

I am a die hard fan of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Sahab and this song is one my favs. But this composition is now my forever "get up and fight back" song. So energizing. This is like best of both worlds.
There's so much passion and drive in it, it's quite something
What is the song about?
@@eccehomonohomo So this song was originally written by Mirabai in 16th century. She was a great devotee of Lord Krishna, so much that he became the love of her life and this song is dedicated to him.

I've never heard of this singer/song before, I mean I live in Europe.. but since this video came out, I'm regularly coming to hear this masterpiece, even though I don't understand language I can feel great emotion, amazing

You couldn't have done this without understanding the lyrics first. How could you literally uplift and deepen the strength of emotion this qawali originally emits. Not only does it sound augmented, but every note is rightfully inserted and connects, both musically and with its natural spirit. Job well done.
This is the musical sixth sense.

This deserves loads of applause the way you've mixed the grammar of metal music and hindustani classical music is way beyond any appreciation, bro this is a blood masterpiece hats off
Qawwali music is so perfect for metal. It’s a beautiful form of music to begin with. It’s deeply spiritual makes me so happy to see I’m not the only westerner who appreciates it.
SONGFACT: this song is not written by the singer himself. This is actually a hindu devotional poetry written by Meera Bai, 16th century poet in India. She is known to be the epitome of devotion to the supreme lord. Being an ardent Krishna devotee this "Bhajan" aptly conveys her love for the "Krishna-ALL ATTRACTIVE". Not to even mention Nusrat is one of the very few artists on the planet that could have done true justice to the depth and gist of it as intended by Meera Bai.
Just realised how good Qawalli is sounding with metal
@@jim_from_it3261 no its not
Never heard these styles coming together before, but listening to this it seems this has existed for centuries
This is something u call Pakistani Sufi or qawali style ustaad Nusrat and his team was so polish in their arts such legendary
@@hasnainyunus1460 no no I know Pakistani music I'm from Punjab (India) myself. NFAK is my favourite artist. Just that I didn't hear him with metal before and it's phenomenal. Didn't think he could be elevated, but this definitely did elevate the experience that NFAK is
Ahh brother you're right he killed it 🙌🏻
Listen to system of a down

Incredible. Really an awesome work Andre! Thanks for us and them for this beautiful and honorary tribute
2:34 - 3:40 this section caught the right emotion the song demanded. Beautiful riffs.
Yes. Epic.
Absolutely!! What a pull from that man
simply the best
That guy has unbelievable pipes….wow.
Very itense at that section, i agree.
I think that folk music and metal music are linked by high emotionality. that's why the combination of both comes out so natural and beautiful. respect for the author for noticing this potential
Metal is folk from the Netherlands 💜
Or music is a universal language
@@jackimoon8284 What?
Well said.
That solo at the end...you have done so much justice to this song, so much grace..man, you deserve an applause..love from India
2:33 is the best transition known to humanity from now on.

I came expecting a funny meme. . .but I stayed with tears falling and in awe. That was beautiful music, despite I don't speak or understand the language...however that saying where "the power of music can unite us all" really does happen. This is one of those moments
Boy u need to understand the lyrics..
@@gauravjaina965 spiritually BASED
Yeah it is made such a way. This is the poem wrote by a women named MeraBai for her god(bhagwaan) Krishna. MeeraBai is said to be the greatest devotee of ShreeKrishna(Our God).
@@Shiva-zj6odMeera Bai scholar this song cannot be attributed to Mirabai as it is in Modern Hindi, an Indo-Aryan language that evolved from Sanskrit and underwent standardization in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Mirabai lived in the 16th century and primarily composed her bhajans in Rajasthani. The form of Hindi used in "Sanson Ki Mala Pe" did not even exist at that time. Additionally, the song's terminology and literary style do not match with Mirabai's other bhajans. To get an idea of what Meera bhajans sounded like, one can listen to albums like "Chala Wahi Des: Lata Sings Meera Bhajans" by Lata Mangeshkar and "Meera Bhajans - M.S. Subbulakshmi" by M.S. Subbulakshmi. The attribution of "Sanson Ki Mala Pe" to Mirabai is merely a rumor being spread by Hindu priests who sing this song in temples and are reluctant to acknowledge that it was written by a Muslim poet. The song was originally penned by Tufail Hoshiarpuri, who was also a devotee of Lord Krishna, and his major writings were devoted to Lord Krishna as well. The literary style and terminology used in "Sanson Ki Mala Pe" are similar to his other writings in Hindi. The book "Soch Mala" by Tufail Hoshiapuri
Awesome. Thanks for the rendition. We need more such videos of classic songs 😊
I have replayed it all day…. Still cant get enough
I've been on youtube since 2005 and this is the first time I've left a comment.
This is a musical masterpiece, I listened to it the day it was posted and have listened to it every day since. You somehow took a non-western piece of music, based on beautiful 16th century hindu mystic poetry, and made it digestible to ears accustomed to western music, without losing the eastern aspects of it.
My girlfriend is from Pakistan, and obviously speaks Urdu/Hindi/etc, and when I asked her to translate it she tries her best, but says a lot of it can't even be properly expressed in English. But even from the basic translation she's given me it's one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard in my life.
I don't see how this can ever be topped, I don't use the term masterpiece lightly, this is perfection, the fact that you were able to so naturally combine these two styles into a beautiful symphony blows me away. I've been a musician my entire life and have listened to nusrat fateh ali khan for a few years now, and knowing the original recordings I could have never imagined it presented this way, and certainly could have never done this myself.
yes its a beautiful piece though it is not hindu mystic origin. it traditional sufi style origin afghani/pakistani islamic turkish origin. rock on piece!
@@sanguine9031 The original poem was by the hindu mystic poet Mirabai, and was about her devotion to lord Krishna, written in the early 1500s if I remember correctly.
But yes the song/music is qawwali and the style is sufi, but the lyrics themselves were originally about Krishna. They were able to take that poem and apply it to Allah instead of Krishna.
@@sanguine9031average Pakistani trying to associate with Turkey when they were Indian once😂😂
U shud leave comments more often, atleast for videos u like as it makes the algorithm to push the right videos and helps the creators as well.
@@Johnny-vr9siyes we are divided by borders , united by music and origin of cultures and their blend ❤
OMG, my Dad (God rest his soul) was from Pakistan. This was incredible and captured the emotion of the song perfectly. The axe in the hands of a righteous man makes a holy sound unto the Lord.
Thats so fucking awesome. Rest in peace to your father.
"The axe in the hands of a righteous man makes a holy sound unto the Lord of the land"
there; now it rhymes
BARS
"Gods love when you kill for them" basically
Well described, Allah rahmet eylesin babanız için.
WONDERFUL!!! I am from Azad Kashmir, Pakistan now living in uk and went to a few live Nusrat Fateh Ali khan performances and also heavy metal.
Qawwali plus heavy metal run through my veins, its great to hear them combined.
Back again. Will not ever stop. This song crosses my eyes as I try to process it❤
⭐️ Andre you have answered my prayers . As a Pakistani who loves both qawwali and metal - you have perfectly remixed my favourite song and I love you eternally for that . THANK YOU
I feel you bro....
absolutely, goosebumps man
wow
This is an outstanding way to pay homage to legends who have passed on while reintroducing them to a whole new generation! Brilliant work!
Yea no kidding, i went on a info hunt to find all about the song and the singer yesterday. Any other songs by him that you would reccomend in a similar vein?
