9 September 2009
Please play this fabulous rendition of Bhitai Raag at the dergha of Shah Abdul latif Bhitai in Sindh. I am completely in love with this piece.

RR, the piece would get a lot more value for non-Sindhi listeners if the organizers of such concerts had a screen in the background with the verses of the shah, transliteration and translation so that the audience can enjoy is on altogether another level.
There are manifold problems with recordings of such brilliant performances if the difficult language of the Risalo, a unique vocalization of these Faqueers was’nt enough. Like yourself, I am on cloud nine when I listen to these.
A recent concert by Abida had the Faqueers as the first act. They were singing from Sur Kedaro (?) of the Risalo of the Shah Latif
Mandh peeyanday moonh
saajan sahee sunyatoo
madh pee kar pechana main nay
saajan ko pehchaan leeya
Simply magical
SubhanAllah, fabulous, almost an out of body mystic experience. Thanks a million
