The Fanaa Fish “Zalim Nafs” (2008) Words by Sultan Bahu. Lo-fi electro-punk, distorted vocals, Punjabi Sufi lyrics:
Allah pardhion hafiz hoion, na giaa hijabon parda hoo. Pardh pardh alim fazil hoion, talib hoion zar daa hoo. Lakh hazaar kitaban pardhian, zalim nafs na marda hoo. Bajh faqeeran koee na maare, eho chor andar daa hoo.
Translation:
You read the name of God and memorized the Qur’an, yet this has still not unveiled the hidden mystery. You read and read and became a scholar, a student of greed. You have read countless books in your life still nothing destroys your cruel ego. None but the faqirs can kill this inner thief.
