  • Aug 17: World Partnership Walk, Edmonton World Partnership Walk: June 17, 12:30 pm - 30 min performance (~30 min)
  • Aug 21: Make Music Edmonton (~45 minutes). We don’t know yet exactly where you will play, it will be on one of our 15 stage on the 124St, between the 102 and 108 Ave.

For the time, the event take place between 5PM and 9PM, but I cannot say exactly when you will perform.

Songs:

dhikr: group sings “Allah” and Shumaila sings on top (Shumaila - Pakistan - but maybe not suitable for outdoor venue?)

Sea Shanty from Hawaii


Here is the lyrics and the translation for the chorus part of the song “Ay Hairathe”


Dum dara dum dara chashm chashme-nam chashme-nam refers to teary eyes : (Addressing an emotional person) Dum dara dum dara chashm chashme-nam chashme-nam refers to teary eyes : (Addressing an emotional person) Sun mere hum dum Listen my beloved Hamesha ishq mein hi jeena Always live in love (Always be in love)


Lead Lyrics:

Ay Hairathe Aashiqui.. jagaa Math - Oh pristine love,don't ever wake up Pairon se zameen zameen lagaa Math - Don't ever let your feet touch the ground (Don't ever come back to reality)


Martha:

Here’s another song for ETO to consider at some point: Naguye Nei by Paul Nabor, a venerated Garifuna singer from Belize. This is a paranda which implies a particular rhythm on the pimero and segundo drums (an example here, of a traditional paranda where you can hear and see the percussion: https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=0rBEywJ5NAc ). In Nabor’s song, the guitar follows the primero rhythm as well. The song is a very sad one, but many people might not think so because of the seemingly upbeat sound of it. Recording, lyrics, and English translation are here: http://www.warasadrumschool.co m/naguya-nei/ . I chose this particular one since it includes not only drumming and singing, but guitar and harmonies and hence is more inclusive of the entire ETO.
