Amir Khusrow once said ’ Music is the fire that burns heart and soul.’ In the 20th century Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan was the carrier of that fire

Amir Khusrow was not just the inventor of Many forms of music including Qawwali, but also a true philosopher and one of the greatest poets ever. NFAK started his musical journey in 1975 with an Amir Khusro’s ghazal in Jashn-e-bahara festival pakistan. Many great Pakistani singers heard NFAK there and showed lot of appreciation and love, which was the biggest motivation point for him ever, he was also given 500 rupees by a singer which used to be a great deal of money in those days. NFAK’s performance at Amir Khusro’s 700th anniversary was nothing less than special, it was this day when he was titled " Khusrau- e- Sani"  meaning Equivalent to Khusrow . He later went on to sing many of Khusro’s poems with great compositions making them a forever saga. Though NFAK is forever in-debt to Khusrow for his poems and invention of Qawwali music, Khusrow himself remains in-debt to NFAK for keeping his poems alive for ever. What follows are some great NFAK-Khusrow tracks

قداست موسیقی

ای موسیقی

ای اهتزاز نغمه های بر خاسته از جهانهای دور

ای آه فرشتگان که از دل ما بر می خیزد

هنگامی که کلمات از بیان باز می مانند ،

و هنگامی که یکدیگر را در آغوش گرفتن

و اشارات چشم و ابرو

و اشکها

از بیان باز می مانند ،

هنگامی که دلهای بی زبان ما

در پشت میله های آهنین سینه هایمان

تنها و بی کس، لال می مانند،

در آن هنگام است ،ای موسیقی،

که تنها تو می توانی آدمیان را در سیاه چالشان با هم دمساز کنی

و تنها تو می توانی آه های آدمیان را از پهنه های دور گرد آوری و به گوش یکدیگر برسانی.

ژان پل

نظامی در خسرو شیرین آنجا که شیرین سخنان خود را به نکیسا می گوید تا با چنگ خویش به گوش خسرو

برساند در یک جا ناگهان آهی می کشد و به نکیسا می گوید: این آه را برایش بفرست، این آه را برایش بنواز.

Ali Brothers(aka Patiala Boys) are a group of young(13-15 years) Punjabi talents from Patiala Gharana. They sure do live up to the name of their ancestors and Gharana. At such a tender age they recreate the great Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan hits with unmatchable beauty…and the best part is their names .. two of them are “Pervez”, great irony right!..

Ahmed Ali, Pervez Babloo and  Pervez Hasan paint the image of a “Baby Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan” physically & Musically. (there is more .. they love Eating & Cricket just like NFAK did) Take a look
