This poem was written 700 years ago by a Sufi saint Amir khusro in delhi and is sung till date by many people in India , Pakistan and all around the world

[@badboyyogi124]

This was infact a rehersal. I remember Abida jii's reaction after the rehersal... she was like now lets shoot the actual perfomance but the producers were thrilled with the rehersal that they decided to upload the rehersal itself and the rest is history.. Rahat and Abida are LEGENDS in South East Asia especially in India and Pakistan! 🇮🇳 🇵🇰

Rahat's noble peace prize performance should be your next and then Cherry on the top called "Rang" by Rahat and Amjad Sabri (Late) from Coke Studio

[@LongLiveTheLoneWolf]

I trained in Indian classical music and used to wonder all the time if anyone from the west would appreciate this song for the genius it is. As most of my own generation now from India and pak don’t care about the songs that are classically inclined. I fucking appreciate this so much. You guys have an insane sense of musical knowledge.

India and Pakistan were same country before 1947.. we got freedom in 1947 but also got divided with borders.

[@itsnadaaaa]

Important clarification : It's not scatting, it's actually Rahat harmonizing the classical scales (Sargam) "Sa Re Gah Mah Ni Pa Dha" :)

Pakistan used to be part of India thus the influence similarity lang & music & cultural wise is prominent … I guess this would explain a lot and not only in Pakistan but this Indic influence spreads to far regions and can be felt in turkey & Iran too especially in their folk or old music same is in Azerbaijan and former soviet republic countries and towards east is goes Indonesia and beyond … If you'd look look past the commercial westernized music in all these places you'll unearth this Indic influence … I don't know but maybe this is the foundation of music it certainly feels like , and India being thousand of years old explains a lot about musical depth gained … and not only Pakistan going back few hundred years even Afghanistan , Myanmar Burma , Bangladesh used to be part of India … I'm only giving you an overview , not explaining in detail , there's a lot to be told to you both i hope i someday sit with you both and have a cup of tea with you or invite you guys for it .

[@TrustifierTubes]

When you said "faith and love and music is all just one thing" is when I knew you GOT IT! This is why i love you both-it's amazing to share this spirituality with you.

[@hasanimam3102]

Already 700 years old and still such popular. This is one of those songs that lives a thousand years. Enjoy.

You have got to react to "rang"

[@bosgaurus1]

India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh (Bung+la+they+sh) were all one country (India) until 1947 when India gained independence from the British. Before leaving India the British divided India into 3 parts, India, Pakistan and East Pakistan (which in turn declared independence from Pakistan in 1971 and became Bangladesh).

Singing in India and even pakistan is based on breathing from the deep space of the diaphragm. Its even called breathing from the belly.

[@anujpradhan2386]

It takes decades to get such a perfection. It is combination of Indian classical music with modern beats and lyrics are about 700 years old written by Khusaro. Both of these singers are legendry and equally respected in India and pakistan.

[@pradeepsh8387]

Basic concept of Sargam is the same in both India and Pakistan (in fact even in the western classical), only the way they sing is different. It's basically an equivalent of "Do re mi fa so la ti do". So here is the mapping of western note and Indian/Pakistani note, Do -> Sa, Re -> Re/Ri, Mi -> Ga, Fa -> Ma, So -> Pa, La -> Dha, Ti -> Ni, Do -> Sa. In India and Pakistan, the classical music (Hindustani/Carnatic/Sufi) singers, sing Sargam in between the songs, like Mr. Rahat did in this song. Sargam is basically an experimentation of singing Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Dha Ni Sa notes in various combinations and styles, but with a strict adherence to the Raaga of the Song (Mood of the Song) they are singing. This allows the Singer to explore a vast area of the Raaga, its depths, its horizon, its beauty, its variations etc, which the song could not encompass due to the limitation in composition. i.e in a Song you have fixed lines of lyrics and you can only compose tune for that lyrics, but Sargam allows you to go beyond the Song (lyrics) and show the might of the Raaga (Mood of the song) it self. This definition of mine is a very basic definition, in reality its as complex as Science and takes years and years of rigorous practice and learning to do it right. Once you learn, it again takes years and years of experience to add your creativity and make it sound Magical and Divine, as these legendary Singers did in this video.

'Amir Khusrau' was a sufi musician/poet between 1200-1300 AD. He is also famed as the creator of Sitar and Tabla arguably ( do wikipedia for details). He wrote this song in Urdu (archaic) for his Pir/ sufi mentor 'Nizam uddin Auliya' (do wikipedia for details), meaning that when he met his mentor then he left/forego whatever he believed in before and changed his religion/ turned to spiritualism just by the looks of his mentor. It's just an expression to say that he didn't remain himself anymore, etc.

His singing gives me goosebumps when he touches those high notes.

Chaap :- when Muslims bow down during namaz and touch there fore head on the ground it’s called chaap (trace)

[@alirizwanbhujwala5628]

These two legends and others have been singing for generations and songs like these are ancient. Close to 800+ years old.
