Mohammad Reza Shajarian - You Make Everything More Pleasant - Poems by Attar of Nishapur

I have created this video for the Persian cultural and musical enthusiasts and for those who have shown curiosity triggered by the recent passing of our beloved Master Shajarian.
In this video, I have chosen one of the precious singing bits by him, in which he sings two poems by the Persian poet and mystic Attar of Nishapur. The piece is in the Persian Traditional Music's mode of Nava, which is one of my favorites. This piece means a lot to me.
I have created this in the spirit of informing and sharing with those unfamiliar with this culture and music. I thought that perhaps by learning a bit about this style of music and singing and to know what is being sung, the listener can develop a sense of appreciation and interest in something that moves millions of people around the globe.
If you find this worthy and informative, please do share it with others.

thank you very much

Excellent videos. Thank you so much.
It's very nice to follow each gushe. For some reason last tasnif from this album Dood-e Oud is very melancholic and makes me cry every time even though I don't know what it's really about as I don't speak farsi. It's linked to this saz o avaz, yes? When separated father and Joseph finally meet and recognize instinctively each other?
It's impolite to request for it and I apologize in advance, Is it possible to do a translation on that?

Dear @dismay'd, are you referring to this tasnif: "ruclips.net/video/2Z1Rqsn0iB8/видео.html". If so, it's a Rumi poem (Gazal #4). Let me know and I'll be more than happy to send you an English translation for it.

@@footprintsofrumi Yes, exactly this one. Thank you so much for your kindness.
