#HomayounShajarian #CheraRafti #RumiPoetry

[@farshadm.3882]

I’m Iranian/Persian, Rumi’s or Molana’s poetry is about Sufism, mystic poetry about the love relationship between Man and God/Creator. Homayoun Shajarian is a well known singer in Persian traditional music industry and son of Maestro Mohammadreza Shajarian(RIP). Sohrab Pournazeri is behind the instrument that is called “Tanbour/Tanboor”, an instrument which mostly used in Persian Sufi music and dates back to ancient Mesopotamia and widely being used in the region with different variants but it shined in ancient Persian empires courts from 300BC to 700AD. Persian/Sufi music and overall Persian traditional music is about mysticism, trance and meditations and heavily influenced by Persian poetry like works of Rumi, Saadi Shirazi, Hafez Shirazi, Shams, Khayaam and many other poets of middle age Persia/Iran. Other well known Iranian singer in Sufi music structure is Shahram Nazeri.

[@nazneentonse6768]

Thanks for that information Farshad

[@arianchannel4357]

Rumi was from iran or afg?

[@farshadm.3882]

@@arianchannel4357 He born in Balkh, present-day Afghanistan during Khwarezmian Empire reign in 13th century.

[@arianchannel4357]

@@farshadm.3882 you mean he belongs to balkh

[@farshadm.3882]

@@arianchannel4357 He was born into a Persian family in the city of Balkh, so yes, he belongs to Balkh by place of birth. His name was “Jalāl ad-Dīn Mohammad Balkhī” but he was also known as “Mulana” “Mulavi” and later by West as “Rumi”.

[@saurora6978]

When I saw the translation, I realized that English doesn't have enough words for all this insanity. thank's for your reaction.

[@mostafameshkatian3108]

Absolutely

[@mostafameshkatian3108]

I myself am Iranian, I know the meaning of poet even in sometimes it gets so complicated but the translation isn't really what poet means..

[@alihakimhashemi3493]

before that, I wanted to describe about homayoun and his fathers and that instruments. but after that I saw you explain about them. u explain very good. thank u. yes cause of the bad and hateful politition in america, and masons and zayonist, many people in the world dont know anything about iran and that polititions are realy scared of that to one day all the people know about real view of iran and iranians people. iran is not normal. iran is the one way to the haevens of god. and if anybody know about that, he or she can undrestand what I say and whay I said iran is one of the way to the god.

[@mehps20]

That's so true. Persian poems are not translatable.

[@z.mustafafarzad3305]

Yes , English is not enough to make sense for the translation in Persian language, Farsi is the most complete language with more than words than all the languages in the world…

[@jamalmaleki3652]

استاد همایون شجریان و زنده یاد پدرشون افتخار ما ایرانی ها هستند 🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷

[@rezarajabi6206]

Actually Farsi is the language of meditation. With all troubles going on in our country, still reminding myself that I had a chance to grow up with such a great language makes me to feel blessed.

[@arioy1754]

In English language, there is no such thing as farsi which is a local name derived from Parsi. Use Persian from now on.

[@hamidnazari7660]

​@@arioy1754The Best thing would be if you educate yourself before writing down what comes to your mind.

[@hamidnazari7660]

@reza... So in your opinion, the mere fact of "... All troubles going on in our country, still .." in your perception is reason enough not to feel blessed. Juvenile reasoning doesn't even come close to describing either the "feeling of being ashamed" or "the feeling of being blessed". More like a lack of self respect, self confidence and being brain washed by the MSM would be more appropriate and to the point.

These poets have a lot of meaning, and I'm glad you reacted to them! You just earned yourself a new sub :)

[@MONQTV]

Welcome to the temple

[@LeilaRubi]

Hi There. To answer your question, the lines were not from different years, but different poems. A "Ghazal" is a poem that is broken into pairs of lines that rhyme with each other. So these lines were taken from different poems and used as lyrics. And you are correct, the love they speak of in this song/poem is not love, but Love...as in "The One" or "The Source" from which (according to Sufism to which I very much subscribe) we are separated from, and the beautiful agony of separation is what we humans suffer from, until such time that we return to the Source. One beautiful analogy from Attar (a ancient Iranian Poet) is that they 'human consciousness' is like a droplet of water separated from the "Ocean". As a droplet you can not possibly comprehend the Ocean (which is why the religious right fears sufism) and after we breath our last, we return to the "One" so we/you/I will all be "Water" rather than a droplet separated from Love. May Peace be upon you and Love your guide.

[@user-xu5it2zb6f]

It is traditional Persian music on the poem of Rumi. As you mentioned it is not the love of man & woman. This poem is speak the scene which the Rumi in love of the main lover (mother of nature) and now he speak about the ways he passed to reach it. He broke any materialistic connection which band him to this world and then the journey began.

[@Skykimomo]

I really really enjoyed your reaction. I watched a few youtubers reacting to Homayoun Shajarian performing Rumi's poetry , but many people fail to recognize that what Rumi meant with "beloved" is the love for God. Actually Rumi's poetry is designed to be ambiguous in that way. In my opinion that's what makes it so beautiful.

[@suchisthismystery2814]

Rumi was born in 1207 and died in 1273 AD, and so these sacred words were gifted to humanity within the latter decades of Rumi's life.

[@fathicoltd6774]

Finally found someone who understood like 90% of this music, and the way they presented it. You should be proud of yourself Monq. These things don't hit ordinary people.

[@MONQTV]

Thank you that is an awesome encouraging and positive comment my friend

[@arsenalmanic]

They are so talented! Stunning !!!!! insane instrument player (how does his fingers not go numb half way through i don't know), and then you got Homaynouns sublime soulful vocals. What a combination !

[@Itssarisado]

The instrument calls " Tanbur " . Sohrab actually raised with it, because of his father Grand Maester "Keykhosrow Pournazeri" (Who brought this traditional instrument on stage.)

[@hammondnordland4822]

I was as speechless as you when watching this. I need to see this live! amazing.

[@judykraska400]

It is also my last wish to visit Iran the ancient places, and listen live to Iranian, Persian music. It gives me peace. 🕊🦘

[@davidbad3535]

Very very very very very very very nice music

[@abjibozorge6289]

From all the reactions to this masterpiece, you were the only one who realized that it's a love poem. And not the kind of love between two persons. It's a divine love between the creator and the creature. 🙏🏼

Indeed Ustad Shajarian left this nugget after himself. I love Jaloluddin Balkhi (Rumi) and I love how Shajarian in this song expressed Balkhi's love to mighty God.

First of all, thanks for your reaction. It was pretty amazing And secondly, It is so interesting for me that you recognized how Deep This song is and yes You are right, our poems long ago In our ancient history They recognized the higher being, and they were worshippin him in this way They didn't try to make a religion or anything We have learned To close our eyes, Cut from the world and everything and pay our complete attention to him and nothing else

The name of instrument is tanbur. This instrument is a member of the tar family and has a mystical and epic sound. It is estimated that this instrument is 6,000 years old, but the oldest evidence dates back to 1500 BC in Iran land. In addition to Iran, this instrument is also seen in Armenia, Syria and Iraq, and has also influenced Egypt and Greek . This instrument is used in folk music How building a tanbur: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZqK2eINtebSVg80 Group playing of tanbur: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZzVXopnbcSVkKc kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2LPapylgZJ2ndE 97

Sohrab Pournazeri the instrument player is one of the best in the world playing Iranian instrument . and Homayoon Shajarian is one of the best if not the best Iranian Singer so far . if you like Poetry Iranian traditional music is like a gold mine every single one will amaze you by deep and profound meaning which is really hard to translate in English

[@arashhekmat3864]

Thank you for such a nice and professional reaction. It was great. The music is out of this world. Just beautiful.

[@Seiffouri]

The numbers are not years. Those are the ordered number of the poems in Rumi's book of Shams. Rumi lived from 1207 to 1273. Isn't that amazing that his poetry is still understood perfectly by today's Persian speakers?! That's the magic of the Persian language, the language of love and poetry...

[@stevemansouri.5290]
