Riyaaz Qawwali's video: Zindagi se badi saza hi nahi 2020 Krishna Bihari Noor Xenophobia Desi Riyaaz Qawwali Urdu Ghazal

https://riyaazqawwali.com/ Second song in the HTownVotes series, which is aimed to spark a dialogue amongst our Desis, is about othering. Perhaps, we have had our fair share of Othering, as immigrants. And maybe, as we reflect, we have done it to others. Krishna Bihari Noor's rich poetry explores the perspectives of truth and community in-fighting . Powerful qawwali from ghazal by Krishna Bihari Noor. And we love the many interpretations the ghazal could have. Its so relevant to our society today! Lyrics from the Zindagi se badi saza hi nahin Aur kya jurm hai pata hi nahin Sach ghate ya badhe to sach na rahe  Jhooth ki koi intehaa hi nahin Itne hisson men bant gaya hoon main Mere hissey men kuch bacha hi nahin Jiskey Karan Fasaad hotey hain Uska kuch ataa pataa hi nahi Following the release of this song, we gathered with our community to break down the lyrics, the storyline, what it took to make the vide and how this is relates to our experiences. We also heard from other perspectives on encountering "othering" and being considered an outsider. riyaazqawwali[at]gmail.com, and website www.riyaazqawwali.com
