Singer released a heart wrenching music video along with his rendition of the song for the lost mountaineer
Singer Ali Zafar has paid a heart wrenching tribute to Muhammad Ali Sadpara, a Pakistani mountaineer who went missing while climbing the K2 on February 9.
In his rendition of the song Paharon Ki Qasam – originally sung by Kamal Masood – Zafar has incorporated various traditional instruments, accompanied by a music video that features a series of snippets of Sadpara, along with picturesque B-rolls of the glorious mountains he climbed.
The song has been produced by Zafar’s Lightingale Records.
Paharon Ki Qasam fits the bill provided that the whole nation continuously prayed for Sadpara’s safe return. “We haven’t received word of your arrival. Your memory won’t leave our hearts. We will keep waiting for you, so return for the mountains’ sake.” croons Zafar in the song.
The video also quotes former US first lady Eleanor Roosevelt who once said, “The purpose of life, after all, is to live it, to taste, experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.”
Now, social media is flooding with users thanking Zafar for the song and the emotional video, which also sees s clip of Sadpara singing Paharon Ki Qasam with his fellow climbers.
Posting the tribute on Facebook Zafar wrote, “No nation can thrive without recognising and celebrating their heroes. Ali Sadpara was one such unsung hero who dedicated his entire life and risked it to accomplish unprecedented feats for his country. This is the least I could do: sing for an unsung hero so that he is etched into our memories for as long as there is music.”
