Subhan Allah – Ehsaan Noorani & Loy Mendonsa feat Jasbir Jassi, Coke Studio @ MTV Season 2

Estimated read time 3 min read

Jasbir Jassi’s powerful voice & Sufi leanings come to the fore here with this rendition of a combination of Waris Shah’s and Baba Ghulam Farid’s verses. Subhan Allah speaks about how love needs to prevail among people for this world to be a happy place. What helps truly set this song apart though are the rock riffs running through it; Sufi meets Rock like never before!

Song synopsis:
Awal hammnd Khuda da Vird kije
Ishq kitta su jag da mool Miya,
pehley aap hai rabb ne ishq kitta
Haaann
Te mashuq hai nabi rasool miya

Ishq peer fakeer da Martaba hai
Mard ishq da bhala ranjoor Miya,
Khulle teena de baab kaloob andar
Haaann
Kitta jinane ishq kabool miya

Subhan Alla, Subhan Alla, Subhan Alla, Subhan Alla

Hey Ishq da jalwa har har jaan
Subhan Alla, Subhan Alla
Hey Ishq da jalwa har har jaan
Subhan Alla, Subhan Alla
Khud Aashiq Khud Mashooq hai oo
Subhan Alla, Subhan Alla
Hey Ishq da jalwa har har jaan
Subhan Alla, Subhan Alla, Subhan Alla

Khud bulbul hai parwana hai
Gul shama utte deewana hai
Khud bulbul hai parwana hai
Gul shama utte deewana hai
De chand chakor nu moh liya
Subhan Alla, Subhan alla, subhan alla subhan alla
Hey Ishq da jalwa har har jaan
Subhan Alla, Subhan Alla, subhan Alla

Kathe Saad kathe Diltang disse
Kathe sula disse khathe Jung disse
Kathe Saad kathe Diltang disse
Kathe sula disse kathe Jung disse
Diya shaan Jamal jalal ada
Subhan Alla, Subhan alla, subhan alla subhan alla
Hey Ishq da jalwa har har jaan
Subhan Alla, Subhan Alla…

Meaning:

Make prayers to God, priority, as this affair, will dissolve all your worldly entanglements. He
is the one who truly loves you and is your sole protector and caretaker, and you are his most
beloved. Those who understand and accept this fact are the only ones who realize him inside
themselves.

He is present everywhere and in every being. He is in every form of love, be it of that of a
man to a woman, a chakor (a Bird that loves the moon) to a moon, a moth to light, or a bulbul
(bird) to a flower (its nectar).

The Almighty manifests himself in every situation, be it in times of opulence or in dearth… or
be it peace or war. For his love is boundless, most pure and the fairest in this world.
