Here I present you two videos of Farhad Darya that I found on Youtube. They are in fact clips made of Indian movies on which fans of Darya put his music. The result is not annoying, especially because Darya’s compositions are not far from Indian music.
The first one :
The second — which I prefer — and the transcription of its lyrics in Persian:
دنیا گذران و کار دنیا گذران
خوش پیر شوی، ای یار جوان
من نغمهسرای دل عاشق پسرانگل می گذرد، موسم گل می گذرد
ما شیشته و کاروان ز پل می گذرد
امسال گذرد، سال دگر باز آید
تا سال دگر، عمر جوان می گذرددنیا گذران و کار دنیا گذران
خوش پیر شوی، ای یار جوان
من نغمهسرای دل عاشق پسرانبیگانه قریب و ملک بیگانه غریب
بیمارم و بی کسم، نه درمان نتپید
کو مادر و دادر که دعائی خواند
بیگانه چه داند که چه شد مرد غریبدنیا گذران و کار دنیا گذران
خوش پیر شوی ای یار جوان
من نغمهسرای دل عاشق پسران
About Farhad Darya
From Wikipedia
Farhad Darya was born in the Guzargah section of Kabul to Pashtun father and Tajik mother from Kunduz. Farhad’s lineage can be traced to the Nashir a tribe of Suri.
After high school, Farhad Darya enrolled in the Polytechnical University of Kabul and then subsequently in Kabul University. It was while attending Kabul University that he founded his first professional band, Goroh-e-Baran(“Rain Band”). Initially it was to be called Halqahai Tilayee (“Golden Rings”) but the newcomers later settled on the former title. The band itself was not largely successful, due in part to its non-traditional music; however, it did acquaint the public with the faces of the member singers: Darya, Asad Badie, Mukhtar Majid and Jawid Rahie. Still involved in his music career, Darya continued his studies in college. During this time, he wrote music for other artists under the pseudonym Abr (“Cloud”). In 1988, Darya became a professor at the university and taught Western classical music for a year before leaving for Europe.
After travelling through Prague and Hamburg, Darya arrived in Paris, where he would meet Sultana Emam. The two were married in 1993, and moved to the United States in 1995, where they still live in the state of Virginia.
Career
Up Until late 1980s — During the 1980s, Darya’s focus was his education and his singing profession did not materialize into an established career. Mainly involved with the “Rain Band”, he was only recognized merely as a single part of a whole group. However, after his emigration from Afghanistan and the dissolution of the group, he embarked on a solo career.
1990s to Present — Since Farhad’s television debut on Afghanistan’s television network in 1980, he has released over two dozen albums-the acclaimed ones produced in exile, many of which deal with the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the resulting misfortunes of the war-torn nation. Most of the music is aimed at helping the people of Afghanistan and bringing unity to his native country. His 2003 album Salam Afghanistan, specifically, deals with themes of national unity. These efforts have earned him much acclaim and the title of “Best Singer of the Year” in his country, and most recently in Denmark.
He has sung songs in various Afghan dialects, as well as in Uzbeki and Urdu. Darya started playing Afghan and Indian classical music since 1978. He intends to expand his knowledge in this domain as much as possible. Most of Darya’s vocal exercises are in accordance with the rules of Afghan-Indo classical music.
Release of his successful album Ha — In 2008 Darya released his international CD Ha. According to Beerobar.com sources the Cd has been a hit inside Afghanistan. The video of Nazdeek Shodan from his album HA was released on Afghanistan National Television, which was a hit among Afghans inside the country, and the afghan diaspora.
