Jashn-e Nowruz: A Celebration (In Wakhi, Farsi & Urdu)
Jashn-e Nowruz
Nowruz Celebration
JollyGul.com Nowruz 2022 celebration song video "Jashn-e Nowruz" is a very special one for a number of reasons.
We are presenting an original song which is in 3 languages - Wakhi, Farsi and Urdu. The song is based on a poetry by Fazal Amin Beg. The filming was done in Chipurson Valley in Hunza and in Edmonton Canada. Mazuz did the music composition and was in charge of the entire project in terms of production.
Fazal Amin Beg, the lyricist, has a Master’s degree in Persian language and literature and an M.Phil in Central Asian Studies with a specialization in socio-cultural anthropology. He has done PhD coursework in Asian Studies (specialization in anthropology). He is a scholar with immense contribution in his field.
Mazuz is a music producer, composer and instrumentalist with an expertise in working with a variety of genres and music styles. Mazuz has a specialty and passion in Central and South Asian music. He creates original contemporary music and his work ranges across various languages like Hindi, Urdu, Punjabi, Tamil, Persian and Wakhi. Mazuz also has a band called Shumol.
Chipurson Valley contains approximately eight scattered villages situated within the Hunza District of Gilgit−Baltistan, Pakistan. It is located in the northernmost part of Pakistan and is close to the country's international borders with the Wakhan Corridor of Afghanistan and the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of China. The valley is predominantly inhabited by ethnic Wakhis. The valley's inhabitants largely adhere to the Isma'ili tariqah of Shia Islam. Chipurson has over 500 households with an estimated population of 3000 people.
JollyGul is a USA based independent not-for-profit organization with a mission to promote artists and spread the message of love, peace, tolerance and understanding through music of all genre to our global audience.
Now here's what makes this effort so special. Back in January of this year, when JollyGul asked Mazuz to produce a song and video for us for Nowruz, the general scope of the work involved producing something that involved people in Gilgit along with one artist from North America. Instead what Mazuz actually did was travel to far-flung Chipurson Valley with his crew (160 miles from Gilgit with almost non-existent roads and dangerous half-broken bridges). The team stayed there for 5 days so they could get the local villagers and children in the area, who would otherwise not have a possibility to participate, get involved in this project. This was an act of exceptional outreach and humanity - something that can only come from a heart of a true artist. We are immensely grateful to Mazuz and his team for this heroic selfless act.
Our presentation of this wonderful song is with lyrics and English translation.
Nowruz Mobarak to you all!
May the New Year bring peace and prosperity to you and to your family and to our entire world.
