Considered one of the greatest voices ever recorded, he possessed an extraordinary range of vocal abilities and could perform at a high level of intensity for several hours. Extending the 600-year old Qawwali tradition of his family, Khan is widely credited with introducing Qawwali music to international audiences. He is popularly known as "Shahenshah-e-Qawwali", meaning "The King of Kings of Qawwali".
Born in Faisalabad, Pakistan, Khan had his first public performance at age of 16, at his father's chelum. He became the head of the family qawwali party in 1971. He was signed by Oriental Star Agencies, Birmingham, England, in the early 1980s. Khan went on to release movie scores and albums in Europe, India, Japan, Pakistan, and the U.S.A. He engaged in collaborations and experiments with Western artists, becoming a well-known world music artist. He toured extensively, performing in over 40 countries.

Tana dery na
Do not get entangled in worldly desires
Tana na paoon
I cannot break free of these desires
Deeda-e- dil ki khashiyaan talabgaar hain
The heart craves for the bounties of love
Oss ki gali ma'n phir na aya karo
Do not visit the alley of love again
Aisi raah par chal ke to
If you continue on this path
Hum to gumshuda ho jayai'nge
You will be lost in the journey
Bhatakte hue saawan ki tarah
Like a wandering raincloud
Tumhari yaad bhi tanha kar jati hai
Your memory also makes me lonely
Tana dery na
Do not get entangled in worldly desires
Tana na paoon
I cannot break free of these desires
