Another long track finding its way to my channel. Coke Studio Pakistan was providing us with a classical 16 minute qawwal. The most special about this is the weird rhythm that continues throughout the whole song. Regarding the vocalists the focus is set, while the instruments assisting the performance in the background. Lyrically the "bracelet" remained a riddle for me, while I could figure out and guess a little bit. Most clearly this song is traditional and spiritual as we are used to it from Coke Studio Pakistan.

In an interview, Rohail Hyatt (the producer of Coke Studio then) had admitted that none of the musicians present really knew where the song would take them (nor when it would end), but they went along and thank god, they did. For in its 16 minutes, ‘Kangna’ effortlessly encapsulates all the splendour and magnificence of the 700-odd years of the Qawwali tradition.

[@sonofzues8414]

pata lag raha ha little bit that it's free ground for them.. they did amazing job.

[@Rishi_Soulful_Music]

This is a 10 beat rhythm cycle known as “JHAPTAAL” in Indian classical music. This is counted as 1-2, 1-2-3, 1-2, 1-2-3. U can see they clap on beat 1, 3 and 8. Count from start and u will get surprised that they always land on 1.

[@abinashmishra2490]

This true cojak rap.

[@safkatmonjur8191]

This song was written by 'Bedam Shah Warsi' und 'Mirza Qateel' aus "Warsi" Sufi order. On the outer form of the song the lyrics are saying that the 'Kangana' (a type of beautifully designed colourful bracelet) was taken by someone and the singer is begging to take it back but on the way, she made some mistakes or cheated but in the end, he was mesmerized by her. He still continues to beg for the bracelet. In the song's inner form, he had something very important with him but along the way, he made some mistakes and lost it. Now he wants his thing back and begs the owner (either God or his spiritual master) to put him again to the right way he was. The first part was is Farsi and second part was in Urdu.

[@manpreetnehra5320]

I think The bracelet here signifies the innocense of the soul, you come with it and lose it in time, now that the soul wants to reunite with god, its begging the world to give the innocence back. The world in this case has taken the bracelet and got you drunk on all the glamour and splendor

[@rohitashvajoshi1]

Pure Indian Classical Music is not about words. Words were introduced much later to make it easier to understand the context or feeling that the singer is trying to evoke. But even now the Ustads don't care if there are words its more for the audience. The notes are frequencies that evoke emotions the way they are delivered and that's what are the Ragas about. The Rhythm is a whole big word in the Indian classical music we say there is as much literature to the rhythm than to the whole of ragas together.

[@amirsami1]

This also featured in the Hollywood movie the reluctant fundamentalist.

Hello kojak, I watching your vedios from severl monthes, but i didn,t write any comments on them, This is my first comment to write, This isn,t qawwaly or ghazal, but it is a masterpeace in coke studio history, It is tumry, the tumry is the begining of music, so it was a very intiant music, The poetry, nobody knowes, couz some layrics is taken from fercian languige and some from another languige i forgot the name, but almost 2,000 years ago farcian was the national languige of hindostan, before british roll, it is based on very classical music, just enjoy the skills of the singers, thanks for the reaction

[@HaiderRizvi]

It is poetry and the freedom you have here is to understand whatever you want

[@gabrieldunn7384]

I saved a few of their songs to a play last last year. Good stuff. When I listened to this one originally, I couldn't figure out the lyrics either. I assume a lot is lost in translation, and cultural differences, so I just enjoy the sounds and talent.

[@sultanashiq]

It's a story of lovers where the boy snatched her bracelet and wanted to keep it for himself, but the girl is pleading him to give back her bracelet because people would notice her missing bracelet and inquire about it and their secret affair would not be the secret anymore.

[@anwerbilal836]

You are one of a few who try to observe and understand not just music but poetry also. Hats off

[@sakibjewel5494]

This song is an epic. I listened to it more than 1000 times, and i dont know why... I just dilute in the music.

[@1ayanmaiti]

It is a 10 beat signature: dhi na | dhi dhi na | ti na | dhi dhi na

[@nabeelahmed5254]

They're are legends they're underrated they're at same level as Nusrat fateh Ali khan sahab and nobody can perform Ameer Khousro Qawalis like they can. People who don't know much about what actual qawali is are one who talk about comparison.

[@MAZA_ZatiKhayal]

Brother Thanks a lot for checking this out. I got really lost in the world of Rhythym this song created. I would like for you to check out RABBA HO SAEEN ZAHOOR SANAM MARVI COKE STUDIO SEASON 6. The song has one of the most beautiful fusion i have ever witnessed. Infact all songs of season 6 are great. Personally i consider it the best season of Coke Studio ever made.

[@ahlamhossain7906]

The qawwals are actually representing the girl's perspective here. The girl is demanding her bracelet back from the lover.

[@anwerbilal836]

A masterpiece I strongly suggest "Mori Bangri" from the same legend and the same Coke studio

[@extremefungaming9542]

You are right this song is more about the vocalist playing with their sounds rather instruments being center of attention. As for lyrics it depends on the interpretation of the person listening to song...that is what poetry is about. but there is mostly a back story in the folk lore to a sufi song. It has a unique rhythm with non symmetrical clapping at beats.

[@777Srp]

The qawwali performed is as enigmatic as the lyrics.. you get lost in the black hole of the entire performance..simply mesmerising.. and the combination of the western music with the traditional singing.. salut!

[@arsalakhan8098]

These are true qawals whereas as Nusrat and Rahat are pop qawals who basked in the glory of the legendary Sabri Brothers considered all time great qawali practitioners who popularised classical and semi-classical qawwalis.

[@anwerbilal836]

When they are not singing, they are doing "Alaaps, Taal, Sagrgam etc. These are essentials in in our classic singing style specially qawali

[@zafarmasood8183]

Its called SUR, TAAL & SARGAM inwhich one word can be repeated even hundreds of time , its actulaay classical rythem played in Indian subcontinent of India, Pakistan & Bangladesh.

[@Mesiawhy]

I believe it’s a 10 beat rhythm with claps on 1,3,8

[@RakeshNandi9]

They count 1 through 8 and they clap on 1,3 and 7. This will help you to understand the rhythm.

[@adnan86pk]

Id suggest checking out BTS of each song before the reaction...they normally talk about lyrics and arrangement and thought behind the song in BTS

[@ammygaming2817]

this is actually not a song to sing...this is the base lyrics and these maestros are showing that how differently they can sing the same line everytime...it is just pure class....pure master's class......so u dont need to understand the lyrics...it is basically a emotion. a story about a girl whose loved one has kept her bracelet while they were together as a souvinier...now she wants it back , but he asks her to comeback...so just an emotion with pure classical singing

[@zeeshan83uan]

I know you have been reacting to Qawwalis but I think no one has told you about the vocal parts without the lyrics. These parts are known as "Sur" improvisation parts. Imagine them as the base of Indian classical singing. Just like you make a tune and learn singing with Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Da. It's similar, but in Indian classical singing, these are called the "Seven Surs" and are Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Dha Nee. Watch any Qawwali or Indian classical vocal piece; these parts will be only based on the seven surs. In Qawwali, these are used so much and are improvised to such a degree extensively that some Qawwalis can even go to 45 minutes and 1 hour, even in live performances. Hope this has helped a bit in understanding the vocals.

[@cojakrap]

I think the first time I heard about this was in Chaap Tilak. I kept that in mind, so i'm not confused if I don't see captions on qawwali songs.

[@irfanmehdi3443]

in Sufism, Normally, Lover (The Sufi Poet) genders himself as female and God (The Devine) as male. Bracelet is taken as symbol of engagement. The Poet here (being a female lover) is begging for Bracelet (declaration of engagement) from Beloved ( The Devine.

[@shafaqbutt8641]

I just want to add a little context there is a love story between Sohni female and Mahiwal male. The love story is that she used to use a baked clay pot to swim across the river to go visit her lover one day, someone substituted the baked clay pot with an unbaked clay pot, and as she tried to swim across the river with it, it dissolved, and she died as well, so the reference to the clay pot refers to this particular love story. The clay pot often speaks to her, telling her I am unbaked I will dissolve you will die, but she insists that she promised her lover she would cross the river and come visit him so she goes anyways.

[@abnoon3607]

There is a book about Qawwali by Shemeem Burney Abbas “The Female Voice in Sufi Rituals.” Men often assume the female voice in this tradition. Mystical poetry is not literal. One post I read a while back on another video suggested the bracelet represents the free will - not sure if that is true. Many of these songs are talking about their relationship with their spiritual master and spiritual surrender.

[@mahmoodshaikh1399]

They started from ràag. This a classical and traditional in qaawwali. Kangan means bracelet wear in hands usually women.

Now the next is 'naina more' , im glad you did 'kangna' it is so beautiful that i wanted every music lover to knoe it, nobody should be deprived of the enjoyment of this masterpiece thats why i recommended it, im not recommending you the things that i simply like, there are a lot of other songs that i like and i see peopke recommendin you in comments, but i suggest you the songs that being a singer and musician really have some attraction for you, naina more is one of them, a short song with 2 great voices and very underrated

@@cojakrap will wait to see how do you enjoy it, watch it with caption or not its ok, hopefully the lyrics will not distract you, easy lyrics, there is 1minute guitar by late amir zaki ( wish that part was a little longer), 1 classical song (thumri, sung by ustad bare ghulam ali sahab) and 1 qawali originall sung by ustad nusrat fateh ali khan both songs mixed, akbar ali makes his part look so easy and effortless that i feel even i can sing too 😁,.... his silky voice and javed bashir's cracking voice totally fit the styles they are singing, song's name you will say it as ' nena moray ', ☺ I watched it right now with lyrics for you, and sorry its 10minutes not short as i told earlier i felt its a 6minute song, short intro

Mr Cojak it was a Great Reaction and i loved how you truly tried to understand this piece. I would recommend you to react to 'Mundari' By Ustaad Naseer ud Din Sami which is also stylistically the same as this song and yet worlds apart.

[@ishtiaqbajwa2999]

Oh yes, , this is music which can lit the candle and can bring rain from clouds. This music is centuries old. This music is called... FOOD FOR SOUL.

[@muhammadowaissyed1192]

The male is in the possession of the bracelet and the female wants it back. But the question is this song was written by a male. And for sure this song relates to god. The poet is actually asking for something but he is relating it to a bracelet.

[@nitinvashishtlakhanpal9757]

IT COULD HAVE BEEN A RING AS WELL, IT IS JUST A BRACELET GIVEN TO HER TO AS IT SIGNIFIES S TOKEN OF LOVE ❤️, SINCE THE LOVE ❤️ IS BROKEN NOW , THAT IS WHY DO NOT WANT TO SEE THE TKEN OF LOVE ON SOMEONE HAND WHO DOES NOT LOVE BACK

[@AndogaSpock]

This is Sufi music and the essence of sufi music is "singing about God, but in an romantic way". So the song in the surface will be about a human romantic relationship, but inward the music will be about relationship to God, and the desire to be with him/her.

[@aamirsaleem9585]

When they are note saying anything, they are singing music classical language which is base of the every type of music and connected to the song or lyrics.

[@EnergyDiscoveries]

The rhythm is a 10 beats cycle. That's why it's difficult to follow. It's called jhap taal in Hindustani classical music.

[@Mesiawhy]

Rung and piya ghar aaya are good tracks by these 2 as well

[@EnergyDiscoveries]

The western scale do re ni fa sol la ti do is the equivalent of sa re ga ma pa dha ni sa in Hindustani classical. That's what they sing when there are no lyrics.

Some things I notced about sufi music (most of times) : 1. The soul is the female 2. God is either the father' or the lover , depending on if there is a third person referenced. IF there is no third person God is the Male Lover, if there is then god is the father 3. The third person is always the corrupting influence on the soul, Mostly it references to the World

[@danishaqib6223]

At surface level it describes story of Krishna and Radha and at much higher level it talks about the relationship of Man with God. *Here's the sufistic explanation * At much higher level this describes state of man when he or she becomes closer to his Lord of the Universe. A soul is requesting his Lord to return his most precious gift (Kangana) - Free Will. None of the creature except human on earth is endowed with this ability. This gift of volitional right or wrong is snatched away by God when man realizes the nearness to God. In early phase of man's life, man remains ignorant of God, he faces the consequences of his own wrongdoing and give excuse of fate. And if he ever achieves success he says that it is my own doing. Instead of putting faith on God he puts faith on himself or on Natural forces or makes his own hypothesis that life has no meaning. If at any point in time by chance it occurs to him that probably God is an answer of this life, he brushes it off saying I just "slipped off" in my understanding. Man is truly deceitful - larzish-e- bahaana saaz. In midlife, man starts facing ups and down (lapak-jhapak) and suddenly he realizes that he is helpless and transcends into reality (aan achhanak madwaa pilaaye)... He/She realizes that Man does not control his own destiny... All he does is the attempt to increase likelihood of desired results...but end is in the hand of the Almighty, sooner or later he realizes God - scattered symbols all around of him/her - 'aan achaanak rang daalo, madwaa pilaao'. Man in the trance of experiencing the presence of Almighty (gulaal rang nahaaye) he is willing to give heart or life (Jaan daademo, Dil Daademo) not able to dissociate himself now from the feeling God. He feels that as if his Free Will (Kangna) is snatched....after experiencing the truth...man is not able to do what he wants....now he cannot speak lie even if he could....He wouldn't harm anyone even if he had the ability...He cannot talk bad about anyone when he could...He wouldn't hurt anyone....His freedom of doing anything - precious Kangna got snatched....He can do now anything but what is his true self is....He is bound to follow the right path.... (copied)

[@cojakrap]

still a beautiful explanation. Free will is always limited, whatever you believe in and this song it is the Almighty.
