Here is the complete English translation of the Ham’d (a composition sung in praise of Allah) rendered by the great Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan (late), Thanks to پنجابی جٹ زاهد ,Yahoo User

Samaa’ tein: Of ears, to hear, listen Khana-e-laa’shaoor : Sub-conscious mind….. (both are Arabic words and used in Urdu / Farsi too)

The date was 31st December 1989, and at Ramgarhia Sabha Gurdwara(A Sikh Temple) Slough UK , a Musilm was singing “Koi bole Ram Ram (A Hindu God) “. For people present, there were no separate religions  “Allah was Ram” & “Ram was the Guru”. By performing this song, NFAK proved that “music has no Religion” & “Religion could never bound NFAK”.  This pious though by NFAK truly justifies the following tribute by a fan ( ‘Rishi R Jha’).

Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, when he sings, the GEETA, the KORAN, the BIBLE,the Sri Guru Garanth Sahib Ji , all are turned into music…a harmony with the existence …the godliness of the Universe can be felt.

So what follows is the English subtitled video & “Lyrics & Translations” of song “Koi Bole Ram Ram”, and the complete performance of NFAK in Gurudwara ( I know you must have seen it). Lets believe in Each Others Religions, beliefs & Gods.. ..

Lyrics & English English Translations (by http://sultanbahukalam.blogspot.in)

Alif Allah chambe di booti, Murshid man wich laaee hoo Nafee asbaat da pane milia, Har rage harjae hoo. Andar booti mushk machaya, Jaan phullan te aae hoo Jeeve Murshid Kaamil Bahu, Jain eh booti laee hoo

My Master Has Planted in My Heart the Jasmine of Allah’s Name. Both My Denial That the Creation is Real and My Embracing of God, the Only Reality, Have Nourished the Seedling Down to its Core. -When the Buds of Mystery Unfolded Into the Blossoms of Revelation, My Entire Being Was Filled with God’s Fragrance. -May the Perfect Master Who Planted this Jasmine in My Heart Be Ever Blessed, O Bahu!
