Lyrics

As-salamu alaykum. So we're back again and it's during the COVID-19 lockdown and alhamdulillah, we're all doing well and we pray for all those people around the world who are undergoing such hardship. We have to be so thankful for all the things we have in our lives. There's so many people who are less fortunate, don't even have shelter or don't even have access to health care. We make dua for all the health care workers around the world who are working tirelessly to keep people safe and to keep people, subhanAllah, alive and surviving this pandemic. So in keeping with the recordings which we've started, today I have my wonderful friend Vivek and he's going to be performing from home and I'm going to be performing from home, even though we've been performing together for so many years. So yeah, I don't know, Vivek, how do you feel about today's session? Hey everyone. So it's going to be a very big challenge for me today. Personally, because we've never performed under lockdown together. So that's the one challenge and obviously the whole lockdown challenge for everyone around the world. It can be very difficult for us to be in our own environment and basically at home the whole time and not doing what we normally do every day. So as a musician, I think we have more flexibility and freedom of expression where we can make music and obviously express that with those that are listening and watching us. So yeah, I'm also praying for the world to be safe and for this pandemic to be over. And yeah, I guess, Zain, we should start off with something good today. All right, so we're ready, Vivi. I mean, Alhamdulillah, thank you for performing with me on so many stages around the world. We've been through many, many adventures and we've had lots of fun and you really get to know a person when you travel with them. So it's an honor that we've performed together for almost over 15 years. And Vivek always makes my song sound way better. OK, so the first song we're going to do today is Vivek's favorite and it's called Sase Lavi and it's about the love we have for our children. And I hope you guys enjoy it. Vivi, are you ready? Yeah. All right, cool. Here we go. This is Sase Lavi and it's dedicated to my niece Humera. Here we go. I want to know, how do you feel? Because I'd like you to show your story untold. So don't be afraid, just let it go. I'll ease your pain as our story unfolds. I know life can be hard, but I am here by your side. So let your tears flow, because I want to know. Sase Lavi, this is life. And I'll be by your side like the shore meets the tide. So take hold of me, my love is infinity. Because there in your smile lies my destiny. I know who you are, you're strong as a mountain. An undeniable star that shines on forever. But even mountains can crumble and stars fade away. But you're my forever, somehow we'll be okay. I see that you've come so far, you've struggled oh so hard. Don't face your fears alone, because I want to know. Sase Lavi, this is life. And I'll be by your side like the shore meets the tide. So take hold of me, my love is infinity. Because there in your smile lies my destiny. I see you so fragile, my beautiful angel, my blessing. You brought out the best in me. You're my tomorrow, because when I look at you, my future in general, you've helped me to see. I know it's hard, no one could ever understand the struggles that you face. Please know I'll lend my hand, forever made for yours. Intertwined, made to hold, lock and load, come what may, I'll never let you go. Because you are what makes me, I'm forever grateful. Forever in moments, to raise you, to praise you, to always be there, to always love you, my beautiful angel. So take hold of me, my love is infinity. Because there in your smile lies my destiny. Sase Lavi. Thank you so much. Alhamdulillah. Thank you, Vivek. It was really an honor to play that song again with you, MashaAllah. JazakAllah khair.
