Veritas (Live at the Holland Festival)
DESCRIPTION:
Sami Yusuf’s composition ‘Veritas’ premiered at the Holland Festival in Amsterdam
as part of his concert series ‘When Paths Meet’.
From the minimal and ethereal sound of the intro,
it subtly transitions to a sense of awe at the astonishing majesty and multiplicity of creation.
The Persian-influenced musical phrasing of Sami Yusuf’s vocalisations
in the intro are inspired by the Daramad of Avaz-e dashti,
a subgroup of the Shur dastgah, a Persian modal system evocative of a meditative state.
Cappella Amsterdam sings quarter tones here and they do so brilliantly.
The flamenco and Andalusian sounds of the Amsterdam Andalusian Orchestra interplay
with Western classical elements and the vibrant Arabic maqam Bayati.
When the mode shifts to the passionate yearning of maqam Nahawand,
its similarity to the Western classical minor scale brings an effortless resonance between the two.
The outro joins Bayati and a harmonic minor scale in a multi-faceted,
fiery expression of multiple, even contradictory states of being,
while the vocalists insist,
‘Veritas’, ‘Veritas’ – Truth, Truth – and cast our focus beneath the turbulent surface storms
to the calm depths below.

LYRICS
Nightshade blooming in my garden
Love I found on my way
Taking root when all was darkened
Scarred in me always
Shine, shine, shine on my dark nights
Shine a light on me
I’ve been wandering all my life and
Now I see the land
In my mornings, waves have taken
What I thought was there
I left you in time forsaken
(With) flowers in your hair
Shine, shine, shine on my dark nights
Shine a light on me
I’ve been wandering all my life and
Now I see the land

DESCRIPTION:
‘Call My Name’ is a love song inspired by Ibn ‘Arabi. Full of metaphysical allusions,
the lyrics evoke a memory of the bliss of divine union, the time when we were “alone with the Alone”
in paradise before the Fall. But that union has given way to separation. The beloved seems distant,
and the heart of the lover cries out, seeking a return to that unity that was lost. Mystical and evocative,
‘Call My Name’ echoes the divine longing that is the very essence of love.

aku bersyukur kau di sini kasih
di kalbuku mengiringi
dan padamu ingin ku sampaikan
kau cahaya hati
dulu ku palingkan diri dari cinta
hingga kau hadir membasuh segalanya

sepanjang hidup bersamamu
kesetiaanku tulus untukmu
hingga akhir waktu kaulah cintaku cintaku
sepanjang hidup seiring waktu
aku bersyukur atas hadirmu
kini dan selamanya aku milikmu
yakini hatiku
kau anugerah Sang Maha Rahim
semoga Allah berkahi kita
kekasih penguat jiwaku
berdoa kau dan aku di Jannah
ku temukan kekuatanku di sisimu
kau hadir sempurnakan seluruh hidupku
oh inilah janjiku kepadamu
sepanjang hidup bersamamu
kesetiaanku tulus untukmu
hingga akhir waktu kaulah cintaku cintaku
sepanjang hidup seiring waktu
aku bersyukur atas hadirmu
kini dan selamanya aku milikmu
yakini hatiku
bersamamu ku sadari inilah cinta
tiada ragu dengarkanlah

This powerful new composition begins with the haunting and resonant vocalizations of Sami Yusuf,
then adds instrumental, rhythmic, and vocal layers to create an epic unison section
that evokes the many-faceted aspects of the arc of Azerbaijan’s history. This piece features
stunning vocal solos by Sevda Alekperzadeh, Tayyar Bayramov, Samira Aliyeva, and a beautiful tar solo
by Sahib Pashazade that leads into the majestic outro.
Written in Bayāt-e Shīrāz mugham, its sweeping melody is inspired by the story of this region
from its earliest times to its hopes for the future.

Dünya fani yalan, Sensin baki kalan

Ya Rabbi nasip et, Seni görmeyi lutfet

Lyrics & Translation:
مرّ طيفٌ بالمنامْ .. كانَ طيفَ مُحمدْ
A shadow passed through my dream, it was Muhammad’s shadow
ضِعْتَ مِنِّي يا كلامْ .. إِذ رأيتُ محمد
I was at a loss for words when I saw Muhammad
لم أقُلْ حتى: “سلامْ” .. ولِساني تَجَمَّدْ
I couldn’t even say “Salam” and I was tongue-tied
بل بكيتُ وانحنيتُ .. نحوَ نورِ محمد
I just cried and leaned, towards Muhammad’s light
يا محمد عليك الصلاةُ والسلام
O Muhammad upon you I send peace and blessings
حاضرٌ في خاطري دائمًا يا محمد
You are present in my thoughts at all times, O Muhammad
في صباحٍ ماطرِ رِيُّ قلبي محمد
On a rainy morning Muhammad quenches my heart’s thirst
في مساءٍ عاطرِ مددٌ ليس يَنفد
On a fragrant evening your help and kindness are never-ending
إن أُبلِّغْ عن فؤادي فحديثي محمد
Were I to convey my heart’s desire, all my words would be about Muhammad
يا محمد عليك الصلاةُ والسلام
O Muhammad upon you I send peace and blessings
لكَ عمري قد نذرتُ .. يا حبيبي يا محمد
I vow to dedicate my life to you, my beloved Muhammad
سأُلبِّي ما أمرتُ .. ولأضِعْ أو أُشَرَّدْ
I will follow your guidance no matter what happens
فإذا ما مِتُّ طِرْتُ .. يا فؤادي تَجَلَّدْ
And when I die, I will fly to you، O my soul, be strong!
سوف نَمضي سوف نَعْلُو .. سوف نلقى محمد
We will journey together, we will ascend, we will meet Muhammad
يا محمد عليك الصلاةُ والسلام
O Muhammad upon you I send peace and blessings

Lyrics & Translation:
مرّ طيفٌ بالمنامْ .. كانَ طيفَ مُحمدْ
A shadow passed through my dream, it was Muhammad’s shadow
ضِعْتَ مِنِّي يا كلامْ .. إِذ رأيتُ محمد
I was at a loss for words when I saw Muhammad
لم أقُلْ حتى: “سلامْ” .. ولِساني تَجَمَّدْ
I couldn’t even say “Salam” and I was tongue-tied
بل بكيتُ وانحنيتُ .. نحوَ نورِ محمد
I just cried and leaned, towards Muhammad’s light
يا محمد عليك الصلاةُ والسلام
O Muhammad upon you I send peace and blessings
حاضرٌ في خاطري دائمًا يا محمد
You are present in my thoughts at all times, O Muhammad
في صباحٍ ماطرِ رِيُّ قلبي محمد
On a rainy morning Muhammad quenches my heart’s thirst
في مساءٍ عاطرِ مددٌ ليس يَنفد
On a fragrant evening your help and kindness are never-ending
إن أُبلِّغْ عن فؤادي فحديثي محمد
Were I to convey my heart’s desire, all my words would be about Muhammad
يا محمد عليك الصلاةُ والسلام
O Muhammad upon you I send peace and blessings
لكَ عمري قد نذرتُ .. يا حبيبي يا محمد
I vow to dedicate my life to you, my beloved Muhammad
سأُلبِّي ما أمرتُ .. ولأضِعْ أو أُشَرَّدْ
I will follow your guidance no matter what happens
فإذا ما مِتُّ طِرْتُ .. يا فؤادي تَجَلَّدْ
And when I die, I will fly to you، O my soul, be strong!
سوف نَمضي سوف نَعْلُو .. سوف نلقى محمد
We will journey together, we will ascend, we will meet Muhammad
يا محمد عليك الصلاةُ والسلام
O Muhammad upon you I send peace and blessings

Lyrics:
Ashaab e Muhammad haq ke wali, Abu-Bakar Umar Usmaan-o-Ali
Yaraan e Nabi mein sab se jali, Abu Bakar Umar Usmaan-o-Ali
They are the closest companions
Most high in rank is their station
Among the gems they were chosen
The first to build our foundation.
These four our Prophet did entrust
Through whom the truth would reach to us
The pillars of his ways and his love
The beacons of his light for all of us.
The stars who guide us through the night
Their path: it leads to paradise
They are the roots, we are the leaves
We are raindrops, they are the seas.
And when the Prophet left this world
No harder time for all it felt
Then strength was found when they stood tall
They lifted and firmly held his torch.
Indebted to them how we are
They went great lengths for this Ummah
Their vision was on times later
They sacrificed so much for us.

Lyrics:
Dua të jetoj
I desire to live
أرغب في الحياة
Që të vdes për Ty,
To die for You,
في الموت لأجلك
Me mall i mbështjellë
Enveloped in longing
يلفني الشوق
Me dashnin për Ty.
With love for You.
بحبك أنت
T’largohem nga kjo botë
I shall depart from this world
سأرحل عن هذا العالم
Si gjethi n’vallëzim,
Like a leaf in a dance,
كورقة متراقصة
Pikon e bie n’tokë
Dropping and falling to the ground
تسقط على الأرض
Me erën n’përqafim.
Embraced by the wind.
تعانقها الرياح.
As trupi s’ka jetë
Neither the body has life
لا الجسم يمتلك الحياة
Sa hija që e ndjek,
More than the shadow that follows it,
أكثر من الظل الذي يتبعها
As shpirti s’thërret
Nor does the soul call
ولا الروح ينادي
Sa lutja e sinqertë,
More than the sincere prayer,
أكثر من صلاة خاشعة
Kur çasti troket
When the moment (death) knocks
عندما اللحظة ( الموت ) يأتي
E fjalët janë tret,
And words dissolve,
والكلام يختفي
Gëzimi i vërtetë
The True joy
المتعة الحقيقية
Nuk qenka kjo jetë.
is not in this life
ليست في هذه الحياة
I etur saherë
Forever thirsty
دائما عطشان
Për Tënden Kënaqësi,
For Your Pleasure,
لرضائك
Lutem pa u ndier
I pray in silence
أدعوا بصمت
Pa fjalë në vetmi.
Without words in solitude.

DESCRIPTION:
Experience the beauty and unity of diverse musical traditions with Sami Yusuf’s
latest release, ‘One.’ Recorded live at the Holland Festival in June 2022,
this piece showcases exceptional artistry from Cappella Amsterdam,
the Amsterdam Andalusian Orchestra, and Sami Yusuf’s own ensemble.
Composed and arranged by Sami Yusuf,
‘One’ is a stunning blend of Western European vocal performance and the dynamic
rhythms of Andalusian, North African and Middle Eastern instruments including the ney,
violin, qanun, santur and percussions.
The German words by Meister Eckhart and Arabic poetry by Abu al-Hasan al-Shushtari
speak of the Eternal I and the unity of vision, emphasising the separate beauty of
each path and their underlying unity.
Performed in E Flat with allusions to maqām Nahāwand,
‘One’ opens with Cappella Amsterdam’s hauntingly beautiful vocals,
transitioning to the richly textured and dynamic rhythms of Amsterdam
Andalusian Orchestra, culminating in a mesmerising santur and percussion performance
by Sami Yusuf’s ensemble.
‘One’ invites you to experience the oneness of the human spirit in art.

Lyrics/Söz: Resül’e Aşk:
Bu özlem kalbin hicretidir
هذا الشوق الذي يملأ قلبي سببه الفراق لك
This longing filling me is caused by separation from you
Sana vuslat bana hasret
الفراق عَنَى لك الوصول لمبتغاك، وعَنَى لي الحسرة والألم
Separation meant for you reaching your ultimate goal [God], but for me it meant regret and pain
Mesafeler misafirdir
المسافات التي بيننا هي ضيف مؤقت
These distances between us are transient guests
Gözümdeki yaş diner elbet
لذا أعلم أن دموعي المُهرَاقة ستتوقف يومًا ما
That is why I know that my flowing tears will stop one day

والحبُّ أيضا درسٌ تعلمتُه منك
Love is another lesson I learned from you
Adın anmak bile çare
ذِكر اسمِك كافٍ لشفاء قلبي
Mentioning your name enough to heal my heart
Seninle deva bulur derdim
في ذِكرك أجدُ الدواء لكل داء بداخلي
In your remembrance I find the cure for all the ills inside me
Senin aşkındadır ihsan
فى عشقكَ أنتَ وجدتُ الإحسان
In your love, I found benevolence
Ki hakka çağırdın zikrile Sen
لأنك دعَوتَنا للحق ذاكراً لله
For you called us to the Truth while you were engaged in the remembrance of God
Yoksan, ruh kalır noksan
في غيابك تشعُر أرواحُنا بالنقص والضياع

DESCRIPTION:
Acclaimed British composer Sami Yusuf brings the immensely popular
Moroccan folk song ‘Fiyyashiyya’ to a European audience in his stunning
new arrangement performed live at the Holland Festival.
An achingly eloquent solo improvisation on the Chinese erhu
by the world-renowned master Guo Gan opens the piece,
which then moves into a joyful call and response between Sami Yusuf
and the vocalists of Cappella Amsterdam. As the rhythm builds,
the Arabic lyrics sung by the Amsterdam Andalusian Orchestra
are answered in English by Cappella Amsterdam.
This innovative rendition captures the exuberant essence of
the North African folk sound just as it clearly captured the hearts
of the audience who are heard clapping and singing along.

Sidi Othman ibn Yahya Cherki (known as “Sidi Bahloul Cherki”) in the 17th century

O Allah the Almighty
Protect me and guide me
To your love and mercy
Ya Allah don’t deprive me
From beholding your beauty
O my Lord accept this plea
حسبي ربي جل الله
ما في قلبي غير الله
Wo tanha kaun hai
Badshah wo kaun hai
Meherban wo kaun hai
Kya unchi shan hai
Uskey sab nishan hai
Sab dilon ki jan hai
Affeder günahı
Alemin padişahı
Yüreklerin felahı
İşit Allah derdimi bu ahlarımı
Rahmeyle bağışla günahlarimi
Hayır eyle hem akşam hem sabahlarımı

Hasbi Rabbi – Sami Yusuf
The lyrics of this song come from the poetry of the 14th century mystical poet Nasimi, who was one of the first literary figures to compose in Azerbaijani. The composer sets an ecstatic mood in this new piece in Shur mugham that evokes Sufi ceremonies through high-energy percussion and dazzling avaz sections. The musical narrative is majestic, powerful, and intensely beautiful.
