Roshan Malik with Owais Mughal
A few days ago I (Owais) requested Roshan Malik to recommend few Seraiki songs. And here they are with comments in his own words.
The first song is by the legendary Ustaad Jumman Khan singing the famous yaar dhadhi song on PTV’s meri pasend. Second song is part of a wonderful documentary that I found on BBC Urdu. It is about a group of blind guys in Dera Ismail Khan who sing Seraiki songs. Third song is by Suraiya Multanikar who is an awesome classical singer. Then there is one by a unknown singer. He has sung it very nice. Finally the last song is by Pathanay Khan singing a song written by the famous poet Ashoo Lal Faqeer.
(1) Ustad Muhammad Juman Khan live on PTV, Yaar dhadhi ishq aatish laai
(2) A Group of Blind Singers in D. I. Khan
(3) kiya haal sunawan dil da koi mehram raz by Surraya Multanikar
(4) An Unknown Singer – We’ll put the name here if our readers help in identifying the singer.
(5) Rohi TV – Assan Talab Saayeen De Naam Di – Pathanay Khan
I hope my question does not offend. I am not a Punjabi or Sariki speaker and I have often wondered exactly what the difference between the to is and just how related to each other they are. Thank you for the information.
For us non-Seraiki speakers, it would be nice if you could also say a few words about the meanings of the words in each song?
Dear Roshan and Owais. I must confess that Muhammad Jumman’s “Yaar Dadhi Aatish” is one of my all time favorite works… For me, it is up there for me with Pathanay Khan’s “Mainda Ishq we touN…”
Nice music!
