Just came across this gem, absolutely beautiful:

Feel free to post your favourite NFAK songs/qawwalis.

Nusrat is nothing short of genius, I question why I listen to anything else after hearing his works.

Also Hassan, have you listened to the soundcloud link I posted?

It's mind-blowing.

Night song is a great album, a very unique fusion.

Do check out Chand Mastana Nazar Gulabi Hai Ghazal (intoxicated) from the album:

Part of the above qawwali:

mere rashk-e-qamar,
tu ne pehli nazar, jab nazar se milayee, mazah aa gaya,
barq si gir gayee, kaam hee kar gayee,
aag aisi lagayee...

O' envy of the moon,
I reached the zenith of pleasure when our eyes met,
Like lightning , it struck and finished me,
Igniting an inextinguishable fire...

My mind runs, I can never catch it even if I get a head start.

Translating some of Nusrat's stuff is a real pain, because he speaks in metaphors pretty much all of the time.

Do not let silence become your legacy.. Question everything
I renounced my faith to become a kafir,
the beloved betrayed me and turned in to a Muslim

It's cool how many octaves are hit during qawwali's such as the above.
