Ghazal - Indian/Persian/Tajik dance fusion by Apsara

Song: Ghazal by Niyaz
This dance is a fusion of Indian, Persian and Tajik dances. It is supposed to express sufi concept of sorrow, restlessness and yearning for the Beloved, which lead to a trance.
Performed @ Vande Mataram festival , Letnia Scena, Złote Tarasy, Warsaw , Poland
Translation of the lyrics found in the internet:

(Urdu poetry by Sauda):
"Your heart cannot be won by me
Nor can my soul bear this restlessness.
Need is a burden which cannot be revealed
Therefore I remain silent.
Whenever you are before me
My eyes fill with tears that are unable to flow,
like an ocean that stands still
At the sight of you passing by."

Persian poetry by Rumi:
"Come Beloved for today is all that is ours
And like the ephemeral moments of a flower's bloom, it will fade.
For tomorrow nothing my remain of me, my heart, or this world,
if the radiance of your love reveals itself as it does today."
