The National Anthem of Pakistan approved by the
Government in August 1954, is a harmonious rendering of a three-stanza composition with a
tune based on eastern music but arranged in such a manner that it can be easily played by
foreign bands.
The Anthem is evocative in spirit, extolling
Pakistan as the centre of faith and freedom, a land of beauty and strength drawn from the
people and the country. The words touch upon the various facets of national life, with an
invocation for integrity o Pakistan. The Verses of the Anthem have been composed by a renowned poet of Pakistan, Abul Asar Hafeez Jullundhri; while the tune has been composed by Ahmed G. Chagla, the well known musician and composer. The Anthem written in Urdu is a unique poetical composition, as in spite of its brevity it is a lyrical exultation for the quintessence of Pakistan its Islamic foundation, ideology, ethos, aspirations and its intrinsic strength.
