When paths meet (Live at the Holland Festival)
أناشيد الألبوم
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.

Veritas (Live at the Holland Festival) – Sami Yusuf
DESCRIPTION:
‘Karitas’ is a spellbinding new composition by acclaimed British musician Sami Yusuf.
It was recorded live at the Holland Festival in June 2022 and delivered with
exceptional artistry by Cappella Amsterdam,
the Amsterdam Andalusian Orchestra & the composer’s own ensemble.
The work moves with intelligence and fluidity from Western choral music
to Middle Eastern modes to the cadence of Andalusia.
Modes traverse boundaries from the distinctive Bayati Shiraz
and Rast maqams to the aeolian. Subtly flowing rhythms & improvisation,
entrancing solos on the Chinese erhu, oud, ney, violin,
underscore the depth of the dialogue among traditions taking place here.
Lyrics by Fuzuli, a 16th c. Azerbaijani writer known as a poet of divine love,
are echoed here in the words of the 12th c. German mystic Hildegard of Bingen.
Intoxicatingly beautiful mawwals take verses from
the Andalusian poet Abul Hasan al-Shushtari (13th c.) and
Abd al-Ghani al-Nabulsi, a 17th c. Syrian writer.

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.
Written by the Moroccan poet
Sidi Othman ibn Yahya Cherki (known as “Sidi Bahloul Cherki”) in the 17th century

and to lead the listener inward to a place of knowing beyond words.
Lyrics are drawn from mystical poets: Kaygusuz Abdal (Turkish lyrics),
Hildegard von Bingen (Latin lyrics),

About the Performance
Sami Yusuf’s instrumental composition ‘The Meeting’ is an intimate
and deeply personal work. Direct and non-linear, the melodies,
rhythms and vocalisations sustain and support
one another flawlessly as the music moves fluidly between the Western
aeolian mode and the Persian dastgah shur. Solos by Sami Yusuf on tar,
Guo Gan on erhu, and Asad Khan on sitar circle each other
to create an embracing ambience where each melodic line is a subtle gem,
strong and fragile in equal measure.

Medina, Medina

Where all I feel is peace
And so much joy around
No better place for me, yeah!

Everywhere I see blue skies
Set above these mountains
Bright colours fill the streets
A smile on every face
A special place for me, yeah!

From the valley of Wadaa’

Welcome, best caller to God’s way)

“Close To You” Lyrics:
I’m sitting here on this mountain
I’m thinking about Your creation
It’s so beautiful out here
A symphony of nature
Oh oh, it’s taking my breath away
I’m so blessed out here today
Chorus:
Allahu, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah
I see the sun, the stars, the moon
I join them all in praising You
Allahu, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah
I feel alive and I feel so good
I feel so close, so close to You
Looking out at the ocean
That makes us blue to the Universe
Wish I could see the world from space
SubhanAllah The Creator
Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah
Oh oh, and it’s taking my breath away
I’m so thankful I can say, just say…
CHORUS
And everywhere I look around me
Your creation’s so wonderful
And the more that think about it
Makes me love You even more
How the river finds the way to the valley
Is just so magical
And the way the night turns into day
It’s a miracle!
Oh, I love it!

LYRICS :
I praise Allah for sending me you my love
You’ve found your home it’s here with me, and I’m here with you
Now let me let you know
You’ve opened my heart
I was always thinking that love was wrong
But everything was changed when you came along, oh
And there’s a couple of words I want to say
Chorus:
For the rest of my life, I’ll be with you
I’ll stay by your side, honest and true
Till the end of my time, I’ll be loving you, loving you
For the rest of my life, through days and nights
I’ll thank Allah for opening my eyes
Now and forever I, I’ll be there for you
I know it deep in my heart
I feel so blessed when I think of you
And I ask Allah to bless all we do
You’re my wife, and my friend and my strength
And I pray we’re together in Jannah
Finally now I’ve found my self, I feel so strong
Yes everything was changed when you came along, oh
And there’s a couple of words I want to say
Chorus
And now that you’re here, in front of me
I strongly feel love
And I have no doubt, and I’ll sing it loud
And that I will love you eternally

Lyrics:
[Verse 1: Akon]
I was running away from myself
Had a barrel inside of my head
I was lying awake in my bed
Thinking ’bout all the things I should have said
[Pre-Chorus: Akon]
But now I’m stronger, I’m so much stronger
No more running, not any longer
And now I’m stronger, and finally I can say
That I’m not afraid, yeah
[Chorus: Akon]
I’m gonna break the silence
Cut like a laser through the dark
I’m gonna light a fire
Cause I’m not afraid, no
I’m gonna fight the triads
They are no chains around my heart
I’m gonna light a fire
Cause I’m not afraid
I’m a warrior, oh mama, I’m not afraid
I’m a warrior, oh mama, don’t be afraid, I’m not afraid
[Verse 2: Akon]
Wish that you could be here with me now
I’ve overcome the demons inside, yeah
I keep hearing your voice late at night
Telling me, gotta fight for your right
[Pre-Chorus: Akon]
But now I’m stronger, I’m so much stronger
No more running, not any longer
And now I’m stronger, and finally I can say
That I’m not afraid, yeah
[Chorus: Akon]
I’m gonna break the silence
Cut like a laser through the dark
I’m gonna light a fire
Cause I’m not afraid, no
I’m gonna fight the triads
They are no chains around my heart
I’m gonna light a fire
Cause I’m not afraid
I’m a warrior, oh mama, I’m not afraid
I’m a warrior, oh mama, don’t be afraid
[Bridge: RedOne]
No, they can’t hold me down
Seen it rising up from the ground
No, they can’t hold me down
Seen it rising up from the ground
Can’t hold me down
Can’t hold me down
Can’t hold me down
Can’t hold me down
[Chorus: Akon]
I’m a warrior, oh mama, I’m not afraid
I’m a warrior, oh mama, don’t be afraid

Meditation – Sami Yusuf
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.

Habibi Ya Rasulullah.
The greatest man to walk the earth,
The greatest words that had been heard,
Your life it was a miracle.

You are the Messenger of Mercy,
You are the Messenger of Peace.
You said to care for all mankind,
Regardless of their faith or mine,
You are the Prophet of all times,
Habibi Ya Rasulullah.
Your kindness calls to each of us,
Your mercy falls on all of us,
You are the Messenger of love,
Habibi Ya Rasulullah.
To seek Allah you are the key,
To reach Allah your footsteps lead,
You are the one I truly need,
Habibi Ya Rasulullah.

Lyrics:
Impatient and longing to meet my beloved
My steps quicken my heartbeat racing
I long to touch each inch as I pass
Hoping to absorb his light into my heart
Ya Mohammad Ya Habibi You are the light of
this blessed city
I’m standing humbly at your green dome
I’m full of sins I’m full of shame
I feel adorned by your beauty
Giving my tears in plea forgive me
Ya Mohammad Ya Habibi You are the light of
this blessed city
My head prostrates onto the ground
All is calm now I feel at peace
No sound amongst these millions
Only I can hear my heartbeat
Ya Mohammad Ya Habibi You are the light of
this blessed city
A place here in Jannah grant me
My bags are packed yet I can’t leave
I yearn the streets of my Rasool
He is my love please let me be

Lyrics :
There’s something on my mind, on my mind
I just can’t get it right, can’t get it right
It doesn’t go away, doesn’t go away
Even though I try to ignore it
I just want peace of mind, I want peace of mind
I feel like breaking down time after time
And it keeps coming back, always coming back
All my life doubting was a part of me
Day and night I fight my insecurities
Asking: “Why?” “Why am I?” “Who am I?”
I just want some peace of mind
Antassalam (You [God] are Peace)
Wa minkassalam (And from You comes all peace)
Tabarakta ya (Blessed are You)
Ya Thal Jalali wal Ikram (O Lord of Majesty and Bounty)
O God I need Your peace, I need Your peace
I still believe with hardship comes ease
Make this stress go away, go away
Go away, go away, yeah!
All my life I know You’ve been guiding me
You’re the One, the One who knows my destiny
I’ll be alright, I’m sure that You’ll look after me
You know what’s inside of me
All my life I know You’ve been blessing me
You’re the only One, the One who knows my destiny
I’ll be alright, I’m sure that You’ll look after me
You know what’s inside of me

“Ummati” Lyrics:
Shining bright you came to us
With a heart so full of love
And you showed that you’re
The one who cares the most
And to us you’ve always been so close
Everyone will say
Please save me
Except Al-Habib (the beloved)
Chorus:
أمتي، أمتي
Ummati, Ummati
(My nation, my nation)
يقولها لنا يوم القيامة
Yaquluha lana yawmal qiyamati
(He will say to us on the Day of Judgement)
أمتي، أمتي
Ummati, Ummati
(My nation, my nation)
يقولها شفاعة
Yaquluha shafa’atan
(He will say as an intercession)
أنا لها، أنا لها
Ana laha ana laha
(“I will do it, I will do it” [to intercede to God on behalf of his nation])
You have always sacrificed
Smiled with patience through the hard times
All you did inspired everyone you knew
Always selfless, striving for the truth
Everyone will say
Please save me
Except Al-Habib (the beloved)
CHORUS
Muhammadun
I’d give my heart and soul for you
Wish my eyes can see your face and be close to you
Coz in your guidance I find peace of mind indeed
No on else on that day can intercede

As I read how the companions honoured you
Little do I feel I have to offer you.
Asalaato Wasalaamu Alayka Ya Rasulullah
Asalaato Wasalaamu Alayka Ya HabeebAllah
If I were to sit tonight and send you peace
While they sleep would your attention fall on me.
Asalaato Wasalaamu Alayka Ya Rasulullah
Asalaato Wasalaamu Alayka Ya HabeebAllah
Lyrics:
Asalaato Wasalaamu Alayka Ya Rasulullah
Asalaato Wasalaamu Alayka Ya HabeebAllah
Knowing when I hear of things you said and did
You’re the most beautiful one that’s ever lived
Asalaato Wasalaamu Alayka Ya Rasulullah
Asalaato Wasalaamu Alayka Ya HabeebAllah
Just a glimpse of you once and that’s all it takes
For my hardships my worries to melt away
Asalaato Wasalaamu Alayka Ya Rasulullah
Asalaato Wasalaamu Alayka Ya HabeebAllah
As I read how the companions honoured you
Little do I feel I have to offer you.
Asalaato Wasalaamu Alayka Ya Rasulullah
Asalaato Wasalaamu Alayka Ya HabeebAllah
If I were to sit tonight and send you peace
While they sleep would your attention fall on me.
Asalaato Wasalaamu Alayka Ya Rasulullah
Asalaato Wasalaamu Alayka Ya HabeebAllah
