Qaseeda Burda Shareef - Najmuddin, Saifuddin Qawwal Brothers
Also known as Qaṣīdat al-Burda in Arabic was a much larger poem (Naat) than is usually recited.
It was written by Imam Al Busiri in praise if Prophet Muhammad (SAW).
It is said that Busiri who was paralysed and bed-ridden for several years was visited by Muhammad (SAW), who spread his black shawl (Burda) on him, thereby curing him. Often the poem is recited to help cure ailments in addition to simply being recited as a Naat at suitable occasions.
Najmuddin & Saifuddin Qawwals are sons of the late Ustad Bahauddin Khansaheb and live in Karachi, Pakistan.

Mein Maili, Tan Mera Maila - Nizami Brothers
This beautiful kalam in fond praise of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) depicts the hindustani andaaz in which much of the language is hindi and helps create a larger appeal. Words like lajpaal, kirpa, and daya are relatively unfamiliar in the present Pakistani milieu, but were often used in many sufiyana kalam of India in order to attract the non-muslim population to the Sufi Shrines of Delhi.
The poet talks of coming on the day of judgement, bearing a burden of his sins and beseeching the Prophet to intervene on his behalf with God to ask for forgiveness. Gender reversal which is also quite common in such poetry of dargaahs is also used here.
Ghulam Sabir & Ghulam Waris are better known as Nizami qawwals and are Nizamuddin Awlia's resident Qawwals. They hail from the Delhi Gharana of singers.

Oft, in the stilly night, Aksar Shab-e-Tanhai Mein, اکثر شبِ تنہائی میں
Poet: Thomas Moore (1779 - 1852 / Dublin / Ireland)
Poet (translation from English to Urdu): Nadir Kakorvi (born 1857)
Singer: Reshma-(Born in Rajasthan to a Gypsy family in 1947)
Oft, in the stilly night,
Ere slumber's chain has bound me,
Fond memory brings the light
Of other days around me;
The smiles, the tears,
Of boyhood's years,
The words of love then spoken;
The eyes that shone,
Now dimm'd and gone,
The cheerful hearts now broken!
Thus, in the stilly night,
Ere slumber's chain hath bound me,
Sad memory brings the light
Of other days around me.
When I remember all
The friends, so link'd together,
I've seen around me fall,
Like leaves in wintry weather;
I feel like one
Who treads alone
Some banquet-hall deserted,
Whose lights are fled,
Whose garlands dead,
And all but he departed!
Thus, in the stilly night,
Ere slumber's chain has bound me,
Sad memory brings the light
Of other days around me.

جو قسمتِ ناکام سے

کس طرح پاؤں میں حزیں

جب آہ ان احباب کو
میں یاد کر اٹھتا ہوں جو
یوں مجھ سے پہلے اٹھ گئے
جس طرح طائر باغ کے

گر جائیں سب قبل از خزاں
اور خشک رہ جائے شجر
اس وقت تنہائی مری

In Search of the Divine - Hazrat Zaheen Shah Taji
Calling out Maula Maula! Maula still escapes us.
We only play with words,meaning still escapes us.
Who understands the word Water as Water,is a fool,
He will keep chanting Water Water and will die of thirst.
By chanting Fire Fire,the lips don't feel the heat,
Place one ember on the lips,then see how they burn.
He who contents himself with names,end up loosing the Named.
The fools who puts in no effort amuse themselves with Name

Shola-shola rat'te-rat'te,lab pe aanch na aaye

Q A U L - by Wajahat Hussain Khan Qawwal
The melodious voice of Wajahat Husain Khan Badauni
I had been looking for Wajahat Hussain Khan Badauni for a while. Always wondered how the descendants of one of the greatest voices in qawwali (Jafar Husain Khan Badauni) could just disappear from public view. I tried to ask people of his whereabouts but had no success. For those of you who do not know of him, Wajahat is the grandnephew of the late Qawwali Ustad Jafar Hussain Khasaheb of Badaun. I even asked Yousuf Saeed in Delhi, a Khusrau enthusiast, thinking that he would surely know. Yousuf had been to Badaun many years back and met Jafar saheb, however did not have any further information about the next generation of qawwals.
Then quite by coincidence, and to my delight, I was recently contacted by his young nephew Nadeem Khan who is a classical singer based in Delhi (cousin of Ustad Rashid Khan) and sent me this lovely CD. Nadeem and Wajahat are both from the Rampur Sehaswan Gharana and Wajahat Hussain Khan is the grandson and disciple of legendary Ustad Nissar Hussain Khansahab.
Born in Badaun, Wajahat was associated with Jafar sahab at an early age due to his keen interest in Sufi music and started performing regularly ever since. An experienced qawwal of 45 now, Wajahat is recognized by most in the qawwali fraternity for his musical prowess and understanding of 'gayaki'. His wonderfully melodious style is quite similar to that of his granduncle. Enjoy the music!
I am hoping that from all the qawwali lover out there all over the world, some will take an interest in Wajahat Hussain Khan Qawwal party and will host the singer. In sab ki hosla afzai karna ham sab pe farz hai. achhay sunnein waaley kay bhi kuchh faraez hotay hein aakhir.

Bhavain Tu Jaan na Jaan ve - Bulleh Shah
Reshma starts with a delightful introduction to the beautiful poetry of Baba Bulleh Shah, saying
that till the artist gets love from the audiences, they stay alive, even when she will have died, her
songs will continue. Even if the Indian government doesn't give her a visa, her voice will reach
India without it :-).
"Weather you know it or not, come to me my beloved
I sacrifice myself for you, come inside me my love" ~ Bulleh Shah

Reshma touring in India, sings Baba Bulleh Shah
Bhavain tu jaan na jaan ve, vehre aa var mere
Main tere qurban ve, vehre aa var mere
Bhavain tu jaan na jaan ve
Tere jahaa mennu hor na koi
Dhundan jungle bela rohi
Dhundan main sara jahaan ve, vehre aa var mere
Main tere qurbaan ver, vehre aa var mere
Bhavain tu jaan na jaan ve
Lokaan de bhane chaak maheen da
Ranjha ta lokaan vich kaheenda
Sadda te deen imaan ve, vehre aa var mere
Main tere qurbaan ve, vehre aa var mere
Bhavain tu jaan na jaan ve
Shaah inaayat saeen mere
Mape chord lagi lar tere
Laiyan di luj tun jaan ve, vehre aa var mere
Main tere qurbaan ve, vehre aa var mere
Bhavain tu jaan na jaan ve, vehre aa var mere
Main tere qurbaan ve, vehre aa var mere
Bhavain tu jaan na jaan ve, vehre aa var mere
Bhavain to jaan na jaan ve
