“ক্ষমা চেয়ে গান নয়, দাবী নিয়ে সুর”
SHAYAN
Songs of conscience, courage, and love — যেখানে সুর বাঁধে দ্রোহ, প্রতিরোধ আর ভালোবাসার সেতু।
For the quiet.
For the restless.

to be witnessed.
“গান তো কেবল সুর নয়, মানুষ হয়ে মানুষের পাশে দাঁড়ানোর দায়।”
The person behind the songs
Not just music.
Life, in songs.
Farzana Wahid — known simply as Shayan — is a Bangladeshi singer-songwriter shaped by her mother’s influence, a path through law, and an unwavering moral compass. Her music stands apart: self-composed, acoustic, urgent, and unafraid to speak truth to power.
A few moments, kept.

শব্দের ভেতর রক্তক্ষরণ, সুরের আগেই জন্মেছিল কবিতা
যদি সত্য বলতে গিয়ে একাকী হতে হয়, তবে সেই একাকীত্বই আমার উপাসনা। গান কোনো বিনোদন নয়, গান এক অনিবার্য সংলাপ।
— ফারজানা ওয়াহিদ শায়নFarzana Wahid Shayan's handwritten manuscripts and lyric drafts capture the unfiltered genesis of her songs.
