"Rumi, the mystic poet, was born in 1207 in Balkh, Afghanistan, which was then a part of the Persian Empire. Amir Khusrau was born in 1253 in Patiali, grew up on the banks of the river Ganges and composed poems of a mystic nature. 'Rumi in the land of Khusaru' is based on Tajjali, a Sufi concert where Persian and Indian dancers, musicians and singers perform in tandem with each other. The Indian musicians from regions of Kashmir, Awadh and Delhi render poems and compositions of Khusrau, and the Iranians sing the poems of Rumi. The film inter-cuts the concert with details from the life of Khusrau, and similarities between his poetry and Rumi's. The film also extensively uses the poetry of both the mystics."

(Bang-e-Dra-126) Traduction Fran�aise: Pri�re

Dua Prayer Pri�re Ya Rab! Dil-e-Muslim Ko Woh Zinda Tamana De Jo Qalb Ko Garma De, Jo Rooh Ko Tarpa De Lord, fill the Muslim�s heart with a desire so fervent That it will set his heart aflame and stir his soul. � Allah ! Habilite le c�ur des Musulmans de ce d�sir ardent qui emballe le c�ur et qui violente l'�me. Phir Wadi-e-Faran Ke Har Zarre Ko Chamka De Phir Shauq-e-Tamasha De, Phir Zauq-e-Taqaza Light up again every speck of dust in the Valley of Faran. Make us long again for beautiful sights, and create in us the urge to make demands. Ensuite fait briller chaque particule de La vall�e de Faran.  Puis donne nous la curiosit� voir et exhorte nous � te solliciter. Mehroom-e-Tamasha Ko Phir Dida-e-Beena De Dekha Hai Jo Kuch Mein Ne Auron Ko Bhi Dikhla De Give piercing vision to those deprived of sight, and show to others what I have seen. A ceux qui ne peuvent pas voir, donne leur la capacit� de voir(comprendre) Que ce que j'ai vu d'autres puissent le voir aussi.  Bhatke Hu...
