🎵 #Awake (#UyanEyGözlerim)

Maqām: Muhayyer Kürdi
Commentary: This piece was composed by a renowned 17th century Ottoman Polish scholar and musician, Wojciech Bobowski (1610- 1675) who embraced Islam and adopted the name Ali Ufki Bey. Sultan Murad IV (r. 1623-1640) employed Ali Ufki in his court as a language interpreter and musical composer. He assembled hundreds of classical Ottoman songs and applied Western staff notations to them for the first time in a work entitled Majmuah-e Saz u Soz (Anthology of Instrumental and Vocal Music). The lyrics for this particular song, which are ascribed to sultan Murad III (1546-1595), express the poet’s remorse for having slept through the dawn prayer.

The first line of the poem reads, “Wake from your heedlessness O my eyes awake!”

A humble slave am I of an almighty Lord.
No work is too hard for that One who’s adored.

But though I’m a beggar who cannot afford
To claim any strength, sure and strong is my Lord.

He says, where He wills, when He wishes a thing,
just “Be”, and it is, by the might of a King.

The ruler whose edicts and wise rulings bring
All blessings and grace by the might of a King.

I haven’t got the force,
No strength between my sides
Why feel such remorse
when the Maker provides?

I haven’t got the force,
No strength between my sides
Why feel such remorse
when the Maker provides?

Happy to share my official Audio Video #Awake (or "Uyan Ey Gözlerim") from the deluxe edition of my album Barakah. This piece has a fascinating history which I will briefly share with you. It was composed by a renowned 17th century Ottoman Polish scholar and musician, Wojciech Bobowski (1610- 1675) who embraced Islam and adopted the name Ali Ufki Bey. Sultan Murad IV (r. 1623-1640) employed Ali Ufki in his court as a language interpreter and musical composer. The lyrics for this particular song, which are ascribed to sultan Murad III (1546-1595), express the poet’s remorse for having slept through the dawn [Fajr] prayer.

The first line of the poem reads, “Wake from your heedlessness O my eyes awake!” May we all be among the spiritually awake. With love. _sy.

Here is the official Audio Video of ‘I Only Knew Love’ (or “‘Araftul Hawa”) from my album BARAKAH (Deluxe). This is a famous poem of the 8th century female Sufi saint of Iraq, Rabi‘a al-‘Adawiyyah, and has been set to music many times, but this Andalusian melody fits the tone and rhythm of the poem beautifully. The inclusion of the tanbour and daf add a Persian influence to the piece. Special thanks to Dr. Tim Winter for providing the English lyrics and translation. I hope it is both musically and spiritually uplifting. With prayers. _sy.
