@@user-ie8zd5qv3b just like how Hindi is a minority language in your country? Let's agree that we are a part of the same land. Majorly dravadians and Aryans. Islam did not exist in this land till Mughals came. Indian subcontinent has many minority languages and one of them is punjabi which is shared by Pakistan. I bet you wouldn't find any south indian or any northeastern language in your country, because those lands don't touch your border. India is a country of more than 25 state. Wildly diverse unlike pakistan or many other countries that exist today. So it makes sense that punjabi is only a minority language in this country of billions of people. Even tho their population might be more than the Pakistan's punjabi speaking community

[@pikachan3399]

@@user-ie8zd5qv3b dude I'm afraid punjabi ain't the only language we share, People in India converse in Urdu and Sindhi as well. And let's not make this about kashmir and who should claim it. It is legally an Indian state, people who live there are known as Indians and they will live in peace if all the polarised neighbouring countries would mind their own business rather than bombing shells of terror in our country. Thank you. As far as the land is concerned then whole world was one land at some point of the time. I am meaning to put it as cultural wise. A Pakistani will know much better history about its country obviously. But Pakistan came into existence in 1947 as you said it about India. We are not Hindustani and shit, we are Bhartiya. We are Bharat (India). I don't know if they teach you about cultural heritage or not, but you can easily find remnants of Hindu temples and Gurdwaras over your land. The music that we talk about today has its roots in Indian Hindu scriptures which is more than 4000 years old. So the cultural impact is there! You and us, we are culturally closer than you and other islamic countries. I'm sure you know about the discrimination between 'arabs' and 'desi'. Y'all get taught ragas in your classical take on music. Many poems written by Indian poets are being sung in Sufi pakistani music even now. Pakistani singers are greatly appreciated here as we appreciate our ustads. Tbh it's weird talking about music like this. It cannot be denied that India has played a major role in sustaining music of your country. There's an exchange. I'm not trying to look down on anyone here. Polarisation is bad, this is what the values of my country teach me. I might be Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christian, Parsi.. I'm an Indian first, a democratic republic where we have the freedom of religion. I'm sure there are many things apart from music that unites us.. memes, comedy, films etc but we don't put front the issue of Kashmir everytime we talk about you. There's hatred because of the violence caused. I hope you understand the threads your politicians and defence is pulling on you and I hope we understand the same about our country as well🙏

*Urdu* is a mixture of Arabic, Persian, Turkish, & Hindko - the Urdu language's essence is discipline, politeness, humbleness, welcoming and fragrant.

[@shehran6936]

Correction, Urdu is a language that came about in 1100s and was popularised and spread by the Delhi Sultanate and later the Mughal Empire. It started in the modern day Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. The Mughal had a massive prersence in Uttar Pradesh with the army they brought with them, that spoke Farsi (Persian) with some Turkish vocabulary. The soldiers met and mixed with locals, some of them intermarried the locals. The locals spoke a language known as Khariboli (Khari = Rough and Boli = Speech). Khariboli and Farsi mixed to create Urdu. The word Urdu comes from Ordu which means Army in Turkish. The English word Horde comes from Ordu too. Urdu was known to be a really beautiful language that the Mughals preferred. They aimed to spread it around South Asia, and for the most part it caught on but it was mainly used by the upper classes, artists and courts.

[@pandaaaaa4]

I'm a bit late but Efra and Waleska, you guys are the first Western people I've heard pronounce Urdu properly the first time and it makes me so happy you guys don't understand 😭 As South Asians, we try not to mention history that much because the wounds of war, colonisation and genocide are still too fresh, it hasn't even been a 100 years yet. I have relatives and I know people who have lived through the partition and war, that are still very much alive today. So history is a very heart-breaking topic to talk about and it usually creates arguments in the comment sections, unfortunately. We still have a lot of forgiving, apologising to, and accepting of each other to do. But if there's one thing we share, it's music, culture and traditions (good and bad lol). 24:06 This song with Abida Parveen and Rahet Ali is called Qawwali music and Sufi-Muslims created this style to make devotional Islamic songs. So when you (Waleska) mentioned that it felt really spiritual and heartfelt, that was the point of Qawwali's, for you to feel it deep in your soul. 54:40 Ustaad means Master or Teacher, so Ustaad Nusrat Fateh is actually Rahet Ali Khan's uncle and also taught him Qawaali music. (Rahet Ali Khan comes from a family of musicians). 1:17:40 For live performances, I really want to watch Abida Parveen, Rahet Ali Khan, Atif Aslam, Gul Panra, Mahir Zain, and Lata Mangeshkar (an Indian Singer - in my eyes she's the best Indian singer so far) 1:21:37 'isko' means 'this', 'tasbeeh' means 'prayer' and 'illahi' means 'Lord' (or 'Your Perfection' if we go according to the given lyrics). What you're hearing hear is a mix of Urdu and Arabic (mainly Islam related) words. This type of music is called a Nasheed/Naat which we sing to praise Allah (God) and the many Prophets and their companions). Qawaali and Nasheed are heart-felt, soul touching, Islamically spiritual music - that's how I would describe it and that's why you guys feel it too. Most Pakistani (and other South Asian countries too) create music that interlinks with faith and love. 1:53:42 We do go buy our first names first and then surnames. But in this case Syeda is a title, not really seen as a name. Hadiya is her first name and Hashmi is her surname.

Indian and Pakistani classical music (of any kind) is incredibly complex at its core. But because of the rigorous training that we get from a young age even to this day, the technical knowledge is left by the wayside and used as just one leg of the tripod of musicality. The second leg is the connection to spirituality (not religion, but spirituality) in all desi classical music. The third, and final leg, is the ability to improvise in a given framework and turn a very simple arrangement into a labyrinth that leaves you wondering where it will go next.

So Urdu stems from the Persian alphabet which also looks similar to Arabic (there are a few different letters). Urdu basically was a language created by trade and war over 100s of years. It’s structure is very similar to Hindi (different alphabet and slight differences in vocabulary) but they are typically mutually intelligible. However it also takes words from Persian (Dari, Farsi whichever you would call it depending on the country of origin) and Arabic. Urdu is the national language of Pakistan but there are many different ethnic groups spread across the country who may speak different dialects or even different languages. This was mostly due to the way Britain drew up the borders for Pakistan prior to leaving India

Chhaap Tilak Sab Chheeni, is a Ghazal written and composed by Amir Khusro, a 14th-century Sufi mystic, in popular Western Indian language Braj Bhasha. Due to the resonance of its melody and mystical lyrics, it is frequently heard in Qawwali concerts across South Asia.Chaapp Tilak Sab Chheeni is considered as Amir Khusru‘s most known Kalam which is basically a penned version of his imagination of devotion and the joy of oneness with the eternal one. He connected this inspiration with his own devotion for his spiritual mentor Nizamuddin Auliya to write this ghazal.

[@tarunbiruly5184]

Many people seem to be categorizing this kind of genre to be Indian classical or Pakistani classical but according to me neither of the terms does justice to this genre, the more appropriate term to use would be "Hindustani classical music" which doesn't associate particularly to any of the modern day regions as this genre dates back its origin around 12th century AD when it diverged from way older genre of "Carnatic classical Music" and got popularized during the reign of Mughals which ruled from Afghanistan in North and Northwest region to Bengal in East and major part of India (which collectively was called"Hindustan" and both names India and Pakistan are comparatively recent names) therefore Hindustani classical is seen in countries of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and even some part in Afghanistan. So conclusively there are only 2 system of music in South Asian countries Hindustani classical (prevalent in Pakistan, north India and Bangladesh) and Carnatic classical (prevalent in southern states of India and Sri Lanka), both Hindustani and Carnatic classical can be summed as Indian classical when talking in context of India.

Urdu and Hindi are technically two different languages and are written in two entirely different scripts. The exciting part is that two languages are mutually intelligible, and sometimes you can not even distinguish which language is being spoken in front of you. Now coming to the videos... The languages are 1. Channa: Punjabi Language [Originated from Punjab (A state shared by both India and Pakistan) and can be understood by Hindi and Urdu speakers]. 2. Chaap Tilak : Braj Language [Originated from Now Uttar Pradesh (A state from North India where Urdu is spoken widely) and can be understood by Hindi and Urdu speakers]. 3. Afreen Afreen: Urdu Language [ Originated from Delhi (Capital of India) in the Mughal period by the amalgamation of Hindi and Persian. Urdu was once also known as 'Hindustani,' which literally means Indian]. 4. Allahu Akbar: Urdu Language with many Arabic terms [Hindi speakers find it challenging to understand Arabic parts of Urdu]. 5. Bol Hu: Urdu/Hindi [Not difficult to understand by Urdu or Hindi speakers]. NOTE : There are a lot of dilects of both Hindi and Urdu, spoken across India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Afghanistan.

I’m glad you are discovering the music from the Sub continent and the way you analyse it and recognise the technicalities of it is very informational. Even for someone from India, listening to your take on how our music is different or similar to other parts of the world is very insightful. Kudos to you guys for recognising the similarities between Indian and Pakistani music. We were the same country before 1947, we share history, culture, language, food and most importantly music. Coke studio is as popular in India as it is in Pakistan because we understand the language and the music and appreciate it whole heartedly Pakistani music has its root in Indian classical music with a lot of Sufi (spiritual) influence. Of course there is pop music which sounds very similar to western music. The way we sing, the vocalisation, Sargam which you guys call “Skat”, instruments, sounds, it’s very similar. Pakistan and India have a very complicated relationship but we are more alike than we are different. Common people on both sides of the border want harmony and peace. We gobble down Pakistani drama shows and a they watch all Bollywood movies even if they have to pirate it and watch it. Keep going you guys, you are doing really well!

Relationship between the two countries is there because Pakistan never existed before 1947. India's partitioned happened in 1947 and Pakistan was born. So essentially pakistani music is same as the roots are same. Language is same. Musical notations representations and almost all classical pakistani recreations are originally Indian just better produced now. For example chaap tilak is an Indian poem written in Indian brij bhasha in North India by Indian poet Amir Khusro. That's being sung here. Also Urdu/Hindi are same in spoken terms but different when you write them. In India both Urdu and Hindi are spoken while in Pakistan it's only Urdu. Indian Raagas sargams and musical notations are common between both music industries. Pakistani music is focussed around Sufi-ism which is essentially a genre of music for devotion in Islam. Indian Music also has Sufi but it's just a small percentage and it covers way more genres. Indian music industry also has a role in Bollywood movies since most movies has songs in it. So the amount of songs which is churned every year in India alone is way more than all nations combined. With a population of 130 cr in India and with a vast recorded history of Indian musical knowledge there is bound to be quality.

Ustad means teacher btw fun fact you were saying about the name Sayda hadia Hashmi, how they don't use the first name, it's not that they don't use the first name, the first name (Sayda) is a caste name. some people use them as a prefix to their personal name. So, her personal name is Hadia and Sayda is her caste name/title name. also completely agree with your point on one of the reasons for why such music is popular in Pakistan is because of how it's now modernised because the more traditional version of this is "qawwali" and the popularity of that genre has gone down quite a lot.
