Layli Kodâm ast - Herati Song

The Herati song Layli kodâm ast ke nok-e bâm ast played on the Herâti Dutâr with 4 main and 11 symphatic strings. Now this beautifull instrument is hard to find.
Does anybody know the text of "Layli kodam ast ke nok-e bam ast"?

Salaam bruder... a question. Is this song also called 'Nusru Nusru Jan'?

[robabnawaz]

@786Noorkhan786

Salâm, no, this is Leyli Kodam ast, but it is very similar to Nasro nasro jân

wow! what are all those things sticking up like that? are those all tuners?

[robabnawaz]

The instrument has a lot of sympatic strings

[robabnawaz]

4 long strings, tuned A A E A

and 10-11 "sympatic" strings, tuned from B-e'

but these 10-11 strings must be retuned for everey raag you play.

Together we have normally 14 strings, but my Dutâr has 15 strings. There was enough place, sop I added one more.

[fuckamerica109]

cool. so how many strings does it have alltogether?

[noshinos]

There is just one string to play, the "sympatic" strings are not fingered but just "sway", that means they sound when the corresponding tone is played on the main string.

[fuckamerica109]

what does sympatic mean?
