Periodically we need to take a look back and so we do with the lyrics and title پخوا for this song by Ismail and Junaid. They combine rock guitars with the rubâb and blend tradition with a contemporary sound. The appeal factor, for me, however, are the words written by Hamza Shinwari Baba. An excellent ode to the Pashto language.
This video begins with a title slide that is a reminder that many have lost their lives in the turmoil in Pakistan and Afghanistan. We should not let ourselves forget.
