I Swear to The Life of All Drunks, That I’m Drunk | Persian Song|

Music means liberation, peace, passion, and emotion that can shake the human being more than anything.

Music is the caress of the heart that dominates and immerses the existence of the audience from the beginning and sometimes has such an unbelievable effect. Music can make us extremely happy or it can greatly upset our soul.

Here I have brought you a romantic melody, once again from Rumi poetry. Fortunately, the YouTube Video already has English subtitles, which is almost very accurate, and while listening to this song, it's good to see the subtitles at the same time:

But before listening to it, there are two interesting things to consider about this ancient song and Persian classical music that might be good to mention:

What is Kamancheh?

an Iranian bowed string instrument used in Persian, Azerbaijani, and Kurdish music. The instrument is related to the rebab which is the historical ancestor of the kamancheh and the bowed Byzantine Lyra. The strings are played with a variable-tension bow.

What is Tahrir? : Tahrir is, in fact, the Iranian classical singing style which is actually a type of “Avaz” (means singing). In this type of singing, the singer vibrates his/her voice in a beautiful way. For example, the chirping of birds or musical instruments.

The singer must not only sing the lyrics but also be able to create unique and extraordinary vibrations in his/her voice according to the mood of the music.
