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.

How We Won the World Cup – “‘We played Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan all the time”
Wasim Akram talking about Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
In today’s video treat, Wasim Akram remembers how the team won the World Cup & How much obsessed they were with “Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan” . It was 1992, and cricketers like Javed Miandad were already die-hard NFAK fans. NFAK himself started taking interest in cricket those days as he was becoming a good friend of the Pakistani cricket team. Just before the team left home for World-Cup, NFAK personally recorded many songs specially for the team on request of Javed Miandad. Team played these songs pretty much every time (before match-after match, during practice sessions, during breaks and of course to celebrate the victory)…
We all know the result of World Cup…. “The team brought the trophy home”

Koi Bole Ram Ram (Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan for Universal Brotherhood & Tolerance) with english translations
NFAK Performing inside a Gurudwara, The best example of religious tolerance
The date was 31st December 1989, and at Ramgarhia Sabha Gurdwara(A Sikh Temple) Slough UK , a Musilm was singing “Koi bole Ram Ram (A Hindu God) “. For people present, there were no separate religions “Allah was Ram” & “Ram was the Guru”. By performing this song, NFAK proved that “music has no Religion” & “Religion could never bound NFAK”. This pious though by NFAK truly justifies the following tribute by a fan (‘Rishi R Jha’) .
Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, when he sings, the GEETA, the KORAN, the BIBLE,the Sri Guru Garanth Sahib Ji , all are turned into music…a harmony with the existence …the godliness of the Universe can be felt.
So what follows is the English subtitled video & “Lyrics & Translations” of song “Koi Bole Ram Ram”, and the complete performance of NFAK in Gurudwara ( I know you must have seen it). Lets believe in Each Others Religions, beliefs & Gods.. ..
