The song Piya Re Piya Re by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan is a beautiful love song that speaks of the intense emotions one feels when they are away from their lover. The lyrics are in Hindi, and the song is performed in a qawwali style, which is a form of devotional music that originated in South Asia.
The singer begins by asking his lover to come back to him, as he cannot bear to be without them. He wonders about the magic that his lover has used to capture his heart and make it beat only for them. The singer then talks about how he has lost his peace of mind and feels restless without his lover, and his heart beats faster with fear and anxiety every moment they are apart. He begs his lover to listen to his flute (basuriya) and come back to him.
The song also talks about how the singer’s eyes are fixated on his lover’s face, and their image is etched in his mind forever. He longs to see them by his side at all times, as they are the only one who can bring him joy and happiness. The song ends with a repetition of the first few lines, driving home the point that the singer cannot live without their lover.

जिसने इस संसार की रचना की, केवल वही पूर्ण है, शेष सब अपूर्ण है। वास्तव में संसार अपूर्णताओं का वृहद्कोश है। तनिक विचारिए, इतिहास का विघार्थी स्वयं को गणित या विज्ञान में शून्य पाता है तो वह स्वयं को अपूर्ण अनुभव करता है। भूगोल का चप्पा चप्पा छान डालने वाले को संगीत के स्वर बेचैन कर देते हैं, उसे अपना ज्ञान- बोझा दिखाई देने लगता है। बड़े- बड़े चतुर वकील और बैरिस्टरों को जब रुग्णता के कारण चिकित्सकों की शरण में जाना चाहता है, तो उनका अपने ज्ञान का अभिमान चकनाचूर हो जाता है। बौद्धिक दृष्टि से हर प्राणी सीमित है, और हर कोई अगाध ज्ञान का पंडित बनने को तत्पर दिखाई देता है।🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
