Hey Naveed, I did not mean "bad translation" since I knew it wasn't yours, I meant that English is a very ineffective language when it comes to translating Sufi music...
No? :)
fadereu...am glad you clarified cuz i have done some pretty lame translations myself but i swear to you this was'nt mine :)....i will post some of my translations soon once i have the courage :)....anyways, always a pleasure to have you here and nice of you to clarify your comment... i find that the video of the song also has a neat translation but it is on the screen only for a few seconds and some of the channels playing the video have just a 1 minute clip...
when i visited india last week a friend of mine bought me the album as a gift and i have been listening to it non-bloody-stop. and i've been making all my friends listen to it as well. who's this rabbi guy and where was he all this time?
rabbi must have been a struggling musician before this album...that is really my guess...his personal profile is available on the net...google on rabbi shergill and you will find a lot of stuff... like you, i have also been listening to him non-stop since the cd is playing in the car...there is also a lot of political commentary in his songs, one about material pursuits of people in the larger cities, loss of life to weapons etc, a whole new outlook... when pop stars get this good at describing their feelings, they are bound to attract fans everywhere in the world....
