Qaumi Tarana

De Qaumee Taranah is het volkslied van Ons Geliefde Land Pakistan.

The Qaumee Taraanah (قومی ترانہ) also known as Paak Sarzameen (پاک سرزمین, "Thy Sacred Land"), is the national anthem of Pakistan. Its music was composed by Ahmad G. Chagla in 1949, preceding the lyrics, which were written by Hafeez Jullundhri in 1952. It is written in Persian language. The anthem has heavy Persian poetic vocabulary,[1] and only uses one exclusively Urdu word 'kā'.

It was officially adopted as Pakistan's national anthem in August 1954[3] and was recorded in the same year by eleven major singers of Pakistan including Ahmad Rushdi, Kaukab Jahan, Rasheeda Begum, Najam Ara, Naseema Shaheen, Zawar Hussain, Akhtar Abbas, Ghulam Dastagir, Anwar Zaheer, and Akhtar Wasi Ali.
