The find of the week surely is the nice fresh sound of Rabbi Shergil, the Sardaar with a Guitar. Lucky me and while flipping those obnoxious channels around happen to had a glimpse of this vid which looked _different_ and a simple press on unmute brought refreshing waves to my ears, Bulleh Ki Janaan Main Kaun. Waise the stud did music for Waisa Bhi Hota Hai and Lets Enjoy. Now off to discover more gems of this new age Sufi gutarist....
Says Bulla, who knows who I am!
I am not in the mosque of the believer,
Nor in false rites.
I am not in the pure or the impure.
Neither Moses nor Pharaoh.
Says Bulla, who knows who I am!
I am not in the vedas or holy books,
Not in drug or wine.
Not in the drunkards wasted intoxication,
Not in wakefulness or sleep.
Says Bulla, who knows who I am!
I am not in sorrow nor in joy,
Neither in clean nor unclean.
I am not water, I am not earth,
I am not fire, I am not air.
Says Bulla, who knows who I am!
I am not from Arabia or Lahore,
Nor from India or Nagaur.
Neither a hindu or muslim from Peshawar,
Nor do I live in Nadaun.
Says Bulla, who knows who I am!
I cannot be unearthed in the mysteries of religion.
I was not born of Adam and Eve.
I am not the name I assume.
I am not in stillness, not in movement.
Finally, I only know myself.
I cannot know any other.
Who could be wiser than I?
Bulla asks, who then, stands here?
Says Bulla, who knows who I am!
know what.. this guy is frmo patel nagar :)
