Jo Na Jaane Haq Ki Taakat
Rab Na Dewe Usko Himmat
Hum Man Ke Dariya Me Doobein
Kaisi Naiya, Kya Majdhaar
An attempt at translating the above:
When you don't realize the strength of what you are
God will not provide you with much help
You will be drowning in the turmoils of your own mind
Even more than a struggling boat in the midst of a tempest.
Its been quite a while since I was so overwhelmed by a single piece of musical performance. Coke Studio is by far one of the most brilliant and stupendous initiatives in the world of 'sub-continental Music' that I have ever seen. It does a phenomenal job of portraying the amazing strength and variety that Pakistani Music has to offer to the world -- my heartfelt thanks to all the performers for putting up such absolute gems of performances.
P.S: The song 'Aik Alif' based on Bulle Shah's kalaam can be heard here
