    Artist: Khumariyaan
    Song Title: Ya Qurbaan
    Original Language: Pashto

     

    دمنکې غاړې شنه لمن ې سپېنه کنه

    Da mangi ghAra ye shna, laman ye speena kana

    Her clay pitcher has a green neck and white base

     

    بل په  غاړې ځانګیبذی تاویزونه کنه

    Bal pa ghAra ye zangeegi tAweezuna kana

    And amulets are swinging around her neck

    Ya Qurban
    Khumariyaan

    Ya Qurban is the perfect example of what the enigmatic power of four Pakhtun musicians combined is capable of. As Khumariyaan transcends traditional composition to improvise within the sonic space to create a fresh sound, Ya Qurban rightfully demands the listener’s attention.

    Farhan’s Rubab in conversation with Shiraz’s percussions assembles a distinctive beat producing a splendid rhythmic pattern. Babar Khanna’s dholak and the groovy bass by Mannu further enhance the kaleidoscopic soundscape of this track that is sure to make you swing.
