Google doodle celebrates Legendary Singer Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan’s 67th birthday

A true legend ...probably the only Pakistani singer who is known in India as far across the border as Kanyakumari ...
 
. .
He is there on Google.co.in too. Probably a subtle nod to the Ghulam Ali incident.

i was just listening to this :)
I am not an expert in music but I had experienced one thing. This kalam has most difficult "Tarz". I had asked many Qawals to sing this kalam but they failed miserably.
 
.
He was the master of music and voice.​
No other person can reach to his heights.
His creations simply Hypnotize you.
His grasp of 'raags' was just astonishing.

My all time fav is-- sanso ki mala pe simru mein pi ka naam.

My favorite from his music were "Tum aik Gorakh dhanda ho" and "tumhay dil lagi bhool jani pary gi" only.

Mann atkeya bay parwah dey naal,

May khayal hu kisi aur ka mjhay sochta koi aur hai,


Ali maula Ali maula dam dam.

Yeh zameen jab na thi,
Aasman jab na tha!

I have listened to almost all of these songs, actually his music is all good, but the ones that attracted me most were "Gorakh Dhanda" and "Dil lagi". :-)

One of the best qawwals of all times, i loved the passionate look on his face when he used to sing qawwali
