Aref (singer) and his granddaughters abroad
Love Songs Aref had suffered many hardships in his life, so there was a “disdain” in his voice. His loneliness also made the songs he sang more palpable to the listener, and the sense of the song conveyed well. This was lost by performing the song “Lake of Light (= Daryache ye Noor)”, and he had to use his thoughts to create it in his songs to create sense. (Aref never used smoke or alcohol) Shahbal Shab-pareh wrote in “The Pop Fader song” about Aref: “The Sultan(=King) of Hearts was Aref, reading it was for the heart of love. Everything he read smelled of love , promising , friendship and compromise”.
