Ahesta Bero




Ahesta Bero (Dari: آهسته برو‎) or Ohista Birav (Tajik: оҳиста бирав), literally "walk slowly" ("walk graciously"), is a musical composition played to welcome the bride and groom's entrance to the wedding hall in weddings in Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and parts of Pakistan and India.


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 was originally a Kharabati song from Afghanistan.



Lyrics


The following is a transliteration of the Dari version of the song.


In qafelaye omor ajab megozarad


Ahesta boro, mahe man ahesta bero


Daryab dame ke ba tarab megozarad


Ahesta boro, mahe man ahesta bere


Saqi ghame farday harifan chi khori


Ahesta boro, mahe man ahesta bero


Pesh ar peyala ra ke shab megozarad


Ahesta boro, mahe man ahesta bero


Ahesta boro, sarwe rawan ahesta bero


Ahesta boro, dokhtar khan ahesta bero


Ay charkh falak kharbi az kinaye tust


Bedad gari shewaye dirinaye tust


Ay khak agar seenaye tu beshgafand


Bas gowhar qeemati dar seenaye tust

(November 2014) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) The Westermarck effect , or reverse sexual imprinting, is a hypothetical psychological effect through which people who live in close domestic proximity during the first few years of their lives become desensitized to sexual attraction. This phenomenon was first hypothesized by Finnish anthropologist Edvard Westermarck in his book The History of Human Marriage (1891) as one explanation for the incest taboo. Observations interpreted as evidence for the Westermarck effect have since been made in many places and cultures, including in the Israeli kibbutz system, and the Chinese Shim-pua marriage customs, as well as in biologically-related families. In the case of the Israeli kibbutzim (collective farms), children...
