In a world of noise and chaos, “Hukus Bukus” is a breath of fresh mountain air, a lullaby for children and the weary soul within us all. Aabha Hanjura’s beautiful rendition of this Kashmiri melody transcends language and culture, offering a profound meditation on existence, identity, and the divine.
The carefully translated “Hukus Bukus” lyrics unfold like a secret. “Who are you, and who am I?” is a gateway to self-discovery. The song encourages us to contemplate our place in the universe and find God in nature’s symphony, not religious dogma.
Imagine closing your eyes and letting the soothing melody wash over you. Waves (“Bishht Bishht Braryo Khothkho Van”) become lullabies, birdsong (“Su Kaman Chhokuth Kowtaran”) a celestial choir, and the sun (“Kotar Byeethiy Marakan”) a warm embrace. Hanjura’s quiet wisdom encourages you to “breathe in and out” (“Shwas Khichh Khichh Wamano”) and experience the divine spark within on this introspective journey.
