with deep longing of the universal love of one’s homeland.

Lyrics:
Blessed is your face
Blessed is your name
My beloved
Blessed is your smile
Which makes my soul want to fly
My beloved
All the nights
And all the times
That you cared for me
But I never realised it
And now it’s too late
Forgive me
Now I’m alone filled with so much shame
For all the years I caused you pain
If only I could sleep in your arms again
Mother I’m lost without you
You were the sun that brightened my day
Now who’s going to wipe my tears away
If only I knew what I know today
Mother I’m lost without you
Turkish:
Ben derdimi kime söyleyeyim
Sensiz ana
Senin kadrini hic bilemedim ben
Aziz ana
Resul buyurdu;
Cennet analarin ayaklari altinda
Senin hayalin aklimda,
ruhumda, ruyalarimda
Sen gittiginde canim gitti,
Ayrilik bir yaman dertti,
Dunya bana cefa etti,
Benim aziz anam
Aglarim ben bulut gibi,
Dilimdesin sarki gibi,
Gunahlarim derin derin
Hakkini helal et ana
To whom will I tell my sorrow
in your absence, mother?
I didn’t know your real value, my beloved mother
The Messenger (pbuh) said
“Paradise is under the mothers’ feet”
Your image is in my heart, my soul, and my dreams
When you left, my soul left
Our separation was painful
The world gave me pain
and sorrow my beloved mother
I cry like a cloud
You are like a song on my tongue
I’ve wronged you countless times
Forgive me mother

Lyrics:
I know I’m waiting
Waiting for something
Something to happen to me
But this waiting comes with
Trials and challenges
Nothing in life is free
I wish that somehow
You’d tell me out aloud
That on that day I’ll be ok
But we’ll never know cause
That’s not the way it works
Help me find my way
My Lord show me right from wrong
Give me light make me strong
I know the road is long
Make me strong
Sometimes it just gets too much
I feel that I’ve lost touch
I know the road is long
Make me strong
I know I’m waiting
Yearning for something
Something known only to me
This waiting comes with
Trials and challenges
Life is one mystery
I wish that somehow
You’d tell me out aloud
That on that day you’ll forgive me
But we’ll never know cause
That’s not the way it works
I beg for your mercy
My Lord show me right from wrong
Give me light make me strong
I know the road is long
Make me strong
Sometimes it just gets too much
I feel that I’ve lost touch
I know the road is long
Make me strong

DESCRIPTION:
Sami Yusuf’s composition ‘The Fire Within’ evokes the flame of love
that burns in the hearts of seekers everywhere.

to Andalusian modes to Middle Eastern scales.
Here we hear the voice of each tradition clearly articulated
as in an intricate conversation with one another.
Layer upon layer of melodies and rhythms serve to clarify the composer’s vision
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),
Mansur ibn al-Hallaj and Abu al-Hasan al-Shushtari (Arabic lyrics).
Performed by Cappella Amsterdam, The Amsterdam Andalusian Orchestra,

ز عشقت آنچنان مستم که دیگر خود نمی دانم
در این مستی بوم حیران و با این حال خاموشم
نه دوریت بود ممکن نه آغوش پر از مهرت
ز بوی زلف مشکینت ولی همواره مدهوشم
رخت بگشای ای ساقی که جانم در طلب باشد
بده یک جرعه زان باده برد هم دم و هم هوشم
در این دیر پر از محنت بسی سختی پذیرفتم
به این اندیشه تا روزی شراب معرفت نوشم
در این عالم تو را دارم تو را دارم به تنهایی

رخت بگشای ای ساقی که جانم در طلب باشد
بده یک جرعه زان باده برد هم دم و هم هوشم
در این دیر پر از محنت بسی سختی پذیرفتم

بود شور لقائت همچو آتش در درون من

Ya Hayyu Ya Qayyum – Sami Yusuf
DESCRIPTION:
Composer Sami Yusuf’s mastery of musical languages dazzles in ‘L’Amour Vivant’.
The initial movement unfolds within the intricate geometry of the Baroque style,
a form that was imprinted on the composer’s soul during his upbringing in London
and that remains a cherished inspiration. From the start we hear the subtle
meeting of musical paths in the Arabic baladi rhythm that underlies the graceful melody.
The transition into the second movement transports the listeners to the heart of Sami Yusuf’s
other musical heritage, immersing them in the Central Asian Azerbaijani world.
The third movement revisits the Baroque sound before incorporating
the rich tonalities and nuanced rhythms of the Middle East and Persia,
seamlessly blending them into a sweeping soundscape.
The meditative sounds of the West African kora and the sensuous tones of the Chinese erhu then follow.
The final movement acts as a love letter to the world classical traditions encapsulated here,
skillfully weaving together the myriad emotions experienced throughout this journey in sound.
‘L’Amour Vivant’ is one of Sami Yusuf’s compositions from the second concert of his ‘When Paths Meet’ series.
It features The Sami Yusuf Ensemble, The Scoring Orchestra of Paris, The Métaboles,
and stellar soloists and specialist musicians in a stunning collaboration.
‘L’Amour Vivant’ is classical crossover at its most innovative.
Performed at the Paris Philharmonic.

L’Amour Vivant – Sami Yusuf
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.

Chand taare hee kiya dekte reh gaeye
Unko arzo sama dekte reh gaeye
Par kay rooh-ul-amin soorah-e-waduha
Soorat-e-Mustafa dekte reh gaeye
Unko arzo sama dekte reh gaeye
Wo imamat kee shab wo saf-e-ambiya
Muqtadi muqtada dekte reh gaeye
Unko arzo sama dekte reh gaeye
Woh gaeye arsh tak aur rooh ul amin
Sidra tul muntaha dekte reh gaeye
Unko arzo sama dekte reh gaeye
Kiya khabar kis ko kab jaam e kauthar mila
Hum to unki ada dekte reh gaaye
Unko arzo sama dekte reh gaeye
Nek-o-bad par hua unka yaksan karam
Log acha bura dekte reh gaaye
Unko arzo sama dekte reh gaeye
Ho ke gum ey Naseer unke jalwon mein hum,

Chaand Taare – Milad Raza Qadri
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.

Bu yürek hep senle varolur yalniz senle coşar
Dile gelse tüm şiirler söylenmemiş şarkilar
Yine bendeki aşki anlatamazlar asla
Senden uzak olan gönüller dolar yasla
Sen aldığım nefes duyduğum ses aşk-i heves
Sensiz karanliklar aydinliğa eremez
İki cihanda sensin alemler efendisi
Şefaat eyle asla yalniz birakma bizi
Sen beklenen müjdelenen en kutlu peygamber
Sen merhamet ve şefkatinle bizlere rehber
Aşkinla hep çarpan yürekler nuruna muhtaç
Sen ruhlarin tabibi gönüllere ilaç

Mere rooh ki aabroo
Mere nabz ki junoon
Khoon mein samatha
Oh Rabba ye
Sangeeth mera…sangeeth mera…Sangeeth mera
Sangeeth mera…
Raag bani tu baarish ki boondhon se
Dhun nikli tu hawa ke jhonkon mein
Taal sikhayi tu Aag ki tadpthi Lau se
Sur nikli tu Koyal ki Har geet mein
Basthe ho tum
Khilthi hui hassi mein
Dhabi hui aahon mein
Chootathi pasino mein
Mohabbat ki raah mein
Jaadu hain Nasha hain tu
Sangeeth mera…Sangeeth mera
Saare zamane ki ek zabaan tu
Aur Duniyan ki ekta hain tu
Mere lafzo ki bayaan bhi tu
Har taraf sirf tu hi tu
Mere rooh ki aabroo
Mere nabz ki junoon
Khoon mein samatha
Oh Rabba ye

(Translation and transliteration):
Teri meri dastaan
Maa ki dhadkan se hui shuru
Dhoondhthi rahi
Teri nishaani
Mil gayi har jagah

Mere nabz ki junoon
Khoon mein samatha
Oh Rabba ye

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.

Chorus:
Jahan bhi dekun Allahu

Jahan bhi jaoon Allahu
Mileen mujhae har manzilaen
(Wherever I look Allah is there
In every thought and every conversation
Wherever I go Allah is there
I’ve reached my journey’s end)
I’ll keep on searching; I know I’ll find Him
He is beside me; He’s always close to my heart
Always in my heart; we are never far apart
I always think of Him when I feel I cannot go on
Chorus
I’ll keep on moving; with every step I take
I’ll feel Him closer; I’ll never lose my way
I always turn to Him when my faith is wearing thin
I always remember He is Al-Baseeru (the All-Seeing)
Chorus
I’ll keep on praying for Him to guide me
I won’t lose my patience, believers always come through
Always there for me, especially in my time of need
I raise my hands and I know He’s listening to me

Sari Gelin:
Sari Gelin is a famous Azeri folk song hugely popular around the world, particularly in Turkey,
Azerbaijain and the Persian speaking countries (Afghanistan, Iran, Tajikistan) as well as Uzbekistan,
Greece, Bosnia and Serbia to name just a few. There are many traditional versions of this hauntingly emotional melody.
This is our humble attempt at creating an English version of this beautiful love song
based loosely on translations from the original variations.

lyrics:
I fight for a love
Knowing it can’t be won
Sent from a light above
Child of our golden Sun
Sari Gelin
I reach for hands
Knowing they can’t be held
Cursed by words I can’t tell
Broken under your spell
Sari Gelin
And like a rose
Turning in to thorns
My love was taken
Back to the light above
What can I do, my love?
Child of our Golden Sun
Sari Gelin.
A beating drum
Searches on for your song
Echoes will carry on
Wondering where you’ve gone
Sari Gelin
Is that your voice
Caught in the mountain air?
Leading me to nowhere
Drifting in silent prayer
Sari Gelin
And like a rose
Turning in to thorns
My love was taken
Back to the light above
What can I do, my love?
Child of our Golden Sun
Sari Gelin
Saçın ucun hörməzlər Gülü sulu dərməzlər Sarı gəlin
Saçın ucun hörməzlər Gülü sulu dərməzlər Sarı gəlin
Bu sevda nə sevdadır Səni mənə verməzlər Neynim aman, aman Neynim aman, aman Sarı gəlin
Back to the light above
What can I do, my love?

Lyrics:
Aa mil yaar saarley, Meri jaan dikhaan ney gyheri
Come my love take care of me, I am in great agony
Ander khawab vchora hoya, Khabar na payndi teri
Soni ban wich luti saiyaan, Soor palang ney gheyri
Ever separated, my dreams are dreary
Looking for you, my eyes are weary
All alone I am robbed in a desert
Waylaid by a bunch of way words
Mullan Qazi rah batawaan, Deen dharam dey pherey
Aye taan thag jugat dey jhaar, lawaanjaal chufereey
The Mullah and Qazi show me the way
Their maze of Dharma that is in sway
They are the confirmed thieves of time
They spread their net saintly crime
Karam sharo dey dharam batawan
Sangal pawan pereen Zaat mazhab yeh ishq na pochdaa
Ishq shara da weri
Their time-worn norms are seldom right
With these they chain my feet so tight
My love cares not for caste or creed
To the rituals of faith I pay no heed
Nadioon paar aye mulk sajan da
lehar lobh ney gheri Satgor beri perhi khalotey
Ten kion lai aweri
My Master lives on yonder bank
While I am caught in the gale of greed
With boat of anchor, He stands in wait
I must hasten, I can’t be late

This symphony I hear all around

To a flower putting roots in the ground
Every bird in the sky every rock and every raindrop
Says as it falls from the clouds
