Hey! Punjabi is a Pakistani language, too!
In this video, I talk a little bit about the Punjabi language and Pakistan. I discuss a few of the differences between Indian and Pakistani Punjabi, as well as urge all Punjabis to unite together on behalf of their mother tongue, irrespective of nationality or religion. Punjabiat makes no such distinctions! Article about the growth of Punjabiat in Pakistan: alyssaayres.com Shahmukhi and Gurmukhi for Indians and Pakistanis: www.apnaorg.com Learn Gurmukhi: www.learnpunjabi.org If you're having trouble with Shahmukhi, I recommend using resources for learning to read Urdu, instead. You basically learn both at the same time. This is the path I personally took, as I already owned "Teach Yourself Urdu Script".

But in that age Baba Bulleh Shah was a beacon of hope and peace for the citizens of Punjab. While Bulleh Shah was in Pandoke, Muslims killed a young Sikh man who was riding through their village in retaliation for murder of some Muslims by Sikhs. Baba Bulleh Shah denounced the murder of an innocent Sikh and was censured by the mullas and muftis of Pandoke. Bulleh Shah maintained that violence was not the answer to violence. Bulleh Shah also hailed Guru Tegh Bahadur as a ghazi (Islamic term for a religious warrior). Humanist Bulleh Shahs writings represent him as a humanist, someone providing solutions to the sociological problems of the world around him as he lives through it, describing the turbulence his motherland of Punjab is passing through, while concurrently searching for God.

This song is based on one of his poems. Junoon: Junoon (Urdu: جنون) (meaning "obsession/passion" in English) is South Asia's biggest and Pakistan's most popular Rock band, based out of Lahore and Karachi. It was formed in 1990 by guitarist, songwriter and medical doctor Salman Ahmad. Q magazine calls them "One of the biggest bands in the world". Billboard says Junoon is the Subcontinent's "biggest crossover successes after the late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan".
