Event Description : DelhiByFoot presents 'Shaam e Nizamuddin Auliya' a walk to explore Sufi culture and qawalis @ Hazrat Nizamuddin Auliya's Dargah.
"Ek shaam kisse aur kahaniyo'n ke naam at Dargah-e-Mehboob-i- Ilaahi, Sultanul Mashaikh Hazrat Nizamuddin Auliya.
The beautiful Dargah of the Holy Saint is an oasis of spiritual serenity amongst the hustle-bustle of a village which has seen nearly 750 years of continuous habitation. Ancient havelis, a baoli, beautifully decorated tombs & bazaars give a glimpse of life as it has been since many centuries. Where now exist glitzy bazars lived & preached Delhi's favourite saint and where centuries later familiesof Qawwals still play the musical notes of his eternal wisdom.
Listen to some shayari of Amir Khusrau & Mirza Ghalib, feel the throbbing life here at one of the oldest settled villages of Delhi and hear the Qawwals sing uplifting Sufi qalaans in the glory of the Khwaja & his beloved the Allmighty...

Presentation will be done in Zabaan-e-Dehli (Urdu/Hindi only)
