Once in a Lifetime Jashn-e-Bahaar

Oh oh oh! What a wonderful time to be alive!
How thrilling, how exciting; how fortunate, how blessed -
Leap with joy, dance with abandon, celebrate His glory
Hazar Imam’s Salgirah during Hazar Imam’s Diamond Jubilee -
A celestial event, an auspicious occasion: once in a lifetime,
how momentous!

Our Present Living Imam, Mursheed, Mowla, Khudavind;
Mazharal Ajayeb, Manzil e Maqsud,
Salgirah Mubarak! Diamond Jubilee Mubarak!

Double the festivities! Light up the jamatkhanas!
Cook up a storm, spread out feast upon feast;
Bake the most elaborate birthday cakes with painstaking detail;
Oh let it be known what a wonderful time tis to be alive
from East to West, North to South;
Oh heavens descend and make of earth a bride in stride:
Hazar Imam’s Salgirah during Hazar Imam’s Diamond Jubilee -
A celestial event, an auspicious occasion: once in a lifetime,
how momentous!

Our Present Living Imam, Mursheed, Mowla, Khudavind;
Mazharal Ajayeb, Manzil e Maqsud,
Salgirah Mubarak! Diamond Jubilee Mubarak!

Ya Shah Karim Al Husseini, Ya Hazar Imam,
words cannot convey emotions and feelings that run this high;
How ever so wonderful the world is with You in it.
All You have done for us, all that You do;
Your ineffable, incomparable love we aspire to;
Everything You mean to us –
Just how do we articulate it with unequivocal expression?

We submit this humble nazrana – our simple child-like hearts;
Please accept our utmost love and devotion on Your Salgirah,
in the hopes it keeps You radiantly happy,
as we try to emulate Your love for us and make You feel special today –
A celestial event, an auspicious occasion: once in a lifetime,
how momentous!

Our Present Living Imam, Mursheed, Mowla, Khudavind;
Mazharal Ajayeb, Manzil e Maqsud,
Salgirah Mubarak! Diamond Jubilee Mubarak!

It looks like in Diamond Jubilee year, it is free for all. Old taboos are disappearing and a new type of culture is evolving as for as ginanic literature is concerned. A new terminology singing "Ginanic Mushiara" with music!!

Good. Ginan with music is not a new thing and Hazar Imam said it is OK to play music in the social hall of the JK but not in the prayer hall.. This was in asouvenir book printed in Kisumu by the Ismaili Association.

This section is not discuss but only to inform so do not bring any controversies or debate here

Festival celebrates the artistry of Ismaili Muslims

There are many who believe art is a universal language, one that transcends culture and class, language and geography - much like faith.

Houston's Ismaili Muslim community is hoping to blend these two universal practices by joining a worldwide celebration of the 60th year of Aga Khan's tenure as the 49th hereditary imam, its spiritual leader.

Art - in all forms - will be used to commemorate the anniversary.

The international Jubilee Arts celebration will bring actors, painters, architects, filmmakers, poets, musicians and comedians together at festivals across the globe.

In Houston, a two-day showcase of the arts is in the works. The free event will be 10 a.m.-10 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Feb. 25 at downtown's Marriott Marquis, 1777 Walker.
