Sufi Rang – Kaafi : the joyous Spring and a musical voyage across Delhi
Sufi Rang – Kaafi : the joyous season of Basant Bahaar – Spring and a musical journeyย across the land of Sufis – Delhi! ๐
This melodyย is wovenย around the raag Kaafi which is associated with the spring season in India. Often, several Indian traditional tunes associated toย the festival of Holi and Basant are woven aroundย this melodic scale itself. The visuals have beenย shot at several Sufi shrines in Delhi like the shrines ofย Qutub Saheb, Chirag-e-Dehlavi, Mai Saheba, Matka Pir, Hzt. Nizamuddin Auliya and some more historical places in Delhi.

The making of MAALPUA :)
Few glimpses that I captured as we prepared MAALPUA this Holi ๐
Sufi Rang
One of my favorite Sufi (fusion) compositions that I created in early 2011. Recently mastered ย the track again.
The lyrics are as follows:
Lyrics by Hazrat Shah Niaz
Hori hoye rahi hai .. Ahmad jiyo ke dwar
Hazrat Ali ka raang bano hai ..Hasan Husain khilar
Aiyso hori ki dhum machi hai .. chahun or pari hai pukaar
Aiyso anokho chatur khiladi .. raang dinyon sansar
Niaz pyara bhar bhar chhidke .. ek hi raang sahas pichkar
