| Video Discription | It was the last day of the Festival of Kabir in Bangalore, the final concert of qawwali by Fariduddin Ayaz & Abu Mohammed from Karachi, Pakistan and the 1350-seat auditorium was packed to the brim. Farid Sahab told the audience that his family was originally from Delhi and flung across the border by the Partition in 1947. "Here, I am called a Pakistan-wallah, and there they call me a Dilli-wallah!” he said laughingly. The humour was dry, but laced with the distinct flavour of loss. When he burst into the famous Rajasthani folk song ‘Padhaaro Mhaare Des (Come To My Country)’, the moment crackled with a poignant beauty. "Let's go to that undivided land," he said, "To that country beyond India and Pakistan, that undivided space where we all belong!" Many in the audience wept, including Mukhtiyar Ali, a beautiful folk singer from Rajasthan sitting in the front row. *** Find lyrics/translation of this song at http://ajabshahar.com/songs/details/14/Padhaaro-Mhaare-Des&title=Padhaaro-Mhaare-Des Discover a universe of Bhakti, Sufi, Baul poetry and music at http://www.ajabshahar.org. *** This festival happened in Feb 2009, within four months of an attack which killed 200 people at the Taj Hotel in Mumbai leading to the immediate capture of a Pakistani terrorist in November 2008. We organised this festival amidst a growing jingoism and anti-Pakistan mood in India. Despite the pessimism and lack of help from many quarters, we managed to secure visas for our Pakistani singer friends to join other Kabir singers from Malwa, Rajasthan, Kutch and Karnataka at this festival.
