    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)

    That is strange. I just heard this absolute masterpiece few days ago and I was blown by this man's voice. It also remainded me of spanish flamenco singing, but the music itself has some Balkan vibes (chords progressions, for example) . It's just mindblowing that Andre managed to put some Pantera in this melody, and yet it all sounds so natural and like integral version of this song.
    The best thing I've heard in many years.
    Thanks to mr. Khan, the lady who wrote lyrics all those centuries ago and to you, Andre, for this musical delight.
    Music is, obviously, universal language.

    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.

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.

In this she is saying that "I bead the name of my beloved in garland of my breath" (rough translation)

    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.

    This, without a doubt, is some of the best and arguably most respectful remix work I have ever had the pleasure to listen to and enjoy. Whilst not being a native and not directly understanding the lyrics, there is no doubt here that Andre has managed to modernise a classical piece of music whilst respecting the artistry of the original. He allows Nusrat & his fellow musicians voices to maintain the centre stage, retaining a lot of the original beauty of the piece whilst tastefully adding the modern music influences.
    With this tasteful composition work in mind, it retains the raw emotion of the original creation . I only hope that were the original artists were with us, they would appreciate the tasteful work done.

      @@craftyunicorn4291 "Sanso Ki Mala Pe Simroo Ma Shiv Ka Naam" is a devotional song that carries elements of both Bhakti and Sufi traditions. The song's spiritual essence and devotional nature make it popular among people of different religious and cultural backgrounds.
      The song beautifully weaves together elements of devotion to Lord Shiva with a Sufi touch, making it a unique and cherished piece in the realm of Indian music. Such songs that blend the essence of different spiritual traditions are a reflection of the rich cultural diversity and syncretism that exists in India.
      The song "Sanso Ki Mala Pe Simroo Ma Shiv Ka Naam" is a devotional song with roots in Indian spirituality and Bhakti tradition. The song is not attributed to a specific historical figure like Meera Bai.
      The origin of this song's lyrics is uncertain, as it is a part of the rich oral tradition in India, where devotional songs and hymns have been passed down through generations. It is likely that the lyrics have been composed and modified by various poets and devotees over time, making it difficult to pinpoint a single author.
      As mentioned earlier, the song gained popularity in the 1990s when it was featured in the Bollywood film "Koyla." However, the actual origins and authorship of the song remain unknown due to its traditional nature.
      In such cases, these devotional songs are considered part of the cultural heritage and are cherished for their spiritual significance rather than being attributed to a specific individual.

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.

      Appreciate your universal message, but I must point out that there is no such thing as "Pakistani" culture or religion. Pakistan is a 20th century state carved out of the homeland of various ancient Indian ethnicities like Punjabi, Sindhi, Kashmiri etc. on the basis of Islamic separatism. Converted Indians of various others regional ethnicities from the rest of India also migrated to West Pakistan and East Pakistan (Bangladesh) at the time of partition in 1947, and also later. They are known as "Mujahirs" in current Pakistan. The state religion of Pakistan, Islam, is a foreign ideology that entered the Indian subcontinent via violent imperialism about a 1000 years ago. The material culture in Pakistan, however, continues to be a mishmash largely of Indian classical culture and regional folk traditions native to north and northwest India. In the last 75 years, the state of Pakistan has managed to more or less wipe out the native faiths (Hinduism, Sikhism, Buddhism) and languages (Punjabi, Sindhi, Kashmiri, Pashto etc.) in favour of Islam and Urdu (an Arabized, Persianized version of a native North Indian vernacular that was used as court language during the brutal Islamic rule of India). Even this very song is originally a bhajan (Hindu devotional composition) written and composed by a legendary 16th century Lord Krishna devotee named Meerabai (a woman). All "Pakistani" music is actually Indian music based on the 'ragas' of the Hindustani Classical system, which is one of two branches of Indian Classical music (the other being Carnatic) based on our ancient Sanskrit scriptures and treatises like Natyashastra.

If anything, it is the ancient civilization of Bharatvarsh (India) that has been victimized by persistent invasions and both physical and cultural genocide for a 1000 years now - culminating in the British using Political Islam to balkanize this ancient land overnight in 1947. My own roots are in current Bangladesh (erstwhile East Pakistan) and my family had to flee from persecution leaving everything behind when lines where drawn across Bengal based on religion, becoming refugees in our own country. The same happened to Punjabi, Sindhi and Kashmiri Hindus and Sikhs when they had to flee to current India 1947 onwards. Religious minorities have been wiped out in these newly formed Islamic nations, but India has become the 2nd largest Muslim country in the world today. You should be comparing what Russia is doing to Ukraine today with what Islamic Nationalism (and later European Colonialism) has been doing to India for a millennium - not the other way around. Indian civilisation is the only one that has never practised violent imperialism in 5000 years; our culture spread organically over thousands of years. And we are the only remaining ancient civilization/polity that has lost most of it's homeland. Equating a shrinking India with expansionist powers like Communist Russia, China or Islamic Caliphate (Turkey, Middle-East, Pakistan etc. are all part of it) is not only ridiculously incorrect, it is actually portraying the oppressor as the victim and vice-versa.🙏
