Tahir Qawwal and Aminah Chishty Qawwal at NFAK’s Tomb
Though calling their effort a rendition is not much correct as they pretty much sing what NFAK sang, their inspirations, aspirations and bravery is still incomparable…. They are exactly the result of what Nusrat always wanted… He must be very happy seeing them from heaven.
What follows are the performances of soulful NFAK’s tracks by the Party at various locations world-wide..
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan & Party performing Allah Hoo at University of Washington
English Translations & Lyrics:
Malik-Ul-Mulk, Lashareeka Lahoo
Ruler of the world, soul of my blood
Wahadahoo Laa Ilaahaa Illaahoo
The promised one, there is nothing but you
The Great Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
If God (whoever he is) could choose someone to sing on his behalf, I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that Nusrat would be it.
