() or (), literally meaning "walk slowly" ("walk graciously"), is a musical composition played to welcome the bride and groom's entrance to the wedding hall in weddings, most often in Afghanistan and the Afghan diaspora.
Usually the accompanied couple is walked slowly under the sanction of the Qur'an, as the attending guests rise in honor of the holy book. This anthem is a very strong tradition in these marriage ceremonies. The song itself is believed to have originally been composed by the folk singer Abdul Rahim (Ustad) Sarban in the mid-20th century.
Lyrics The following is a transliteration of the Dari version of the song.
