Pakistan' most famous traditional Music

There have been many Sufis and Dervishes in history. These saint and pious personalities were close to Allah and preach the islam throughout the world. These were blessed with some specialties and had the ability to watched the things which were unable to see by the normal eyes and had the knowledge of universe. These saint are known as Qalandar. These saint sufi are free from all the boundaries such as time and space and enjoy the love with Allah. There heart is filled with the creature of Allah to to highest level and no one can distract them from their path.

They always spread positivity , love and humanity and give the benefit to the Allah's creature with their knowledge and power. They know that this world is going to end and real will start after death. So they have nothing to do with the things of this world and always wait for the moment when their soul will be separate from the body so that they may get a chance to see their loved ones, Allah and Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

There was a sufi named as Lal Shahbaz Qalandar in Sehwin Sharif which is famous in sufi world for his spiritual power. The Mast Qalandar Sufi Song is dedicated to that saint personality. This song was written by a well known sufi poet, Amir Khusrow in 13th century but in 18th century, baba Bulleh shah changed this qawali completely. A huge color of Sindhi culture was given to this Qawali by Baba Bulleh shah. Baba Bulleh shah added many verses in the mast qalandar to praise the Lal Shahbaz qalandar.

This traditional islamic folk song is most famous across the Asia and even in other continent. Every year a large number of people visit his shrine. This Qawali is spoken there and it feels calm to hear it. Many singer sing this qawali in various style but my favorite is Abida perveen. It is composed by multiple composer time by time . Source
