A Tune to Die For – Pakistan’s National Anthem
Ever Green National Anthem of Pakistan. It was written by Abu-Al-Asar Hafeez Jullanhuri (1900-1982) and music was by Ahmed Ghulam Ali Chagla (1902-1953) .English Translation:
The whole anthem is in Persian language except a single world “KA” in sentence (Pak Sir Zameen KA Nizam).
Blessed be the sacred land,
Happy be the bounteous realm,
Symbol of high resolve, Land of Pakistan.
Blessed be thou citadel of faith.
The Order of this Sacred Land,
is the might of the brotherhood of the people.
May the nation, the country, and the state
Shine in glory everlasting
Blessed be the goal of our ambition.
This flag of the Crescent and the Star
Leads the way to progress and perfection,
Interpreter of our past, glory of our present,
Inspiration of our future,
Symbol of Almighty’s protection.
