It was blasted on radios and broadcast on television screens come every Independence Day. This song by Jawad Ahmad is one that really stands out in the past decade. It serves to remind us that no matter where we are or what we’re up to, our hearts are always with our homeland, kyunke dil deewana tere liye. In a way that is sure to strike a cord with both the locals and expats, this piece mentions the ethereal nature of this love, unaffected by distance or difficulties. Whereas newer songs seem to be all about unrequited love, this composition is about the one love that is truly worth dying for: the love of our homeland. The beautiful voice of Faakhir and the soulful lyrics are what make this upbeat song worth a listen. If nothing else, that’s the least you can do right now. I highly encourage everyone to click on the names for easy access to the links and give each of them a listen.

This is meant for those who no longer remember why to be grateful for their homeland, and also those who love Pakistan but are having a hard time keeping their spirits up. This post is a tribute to the times when everyone used to listen to them obsessively, all the while pinning on green badges and putting up the green and white flags everywhere. These milli naghmay have stood the test of time, and sound as fresh as they did back when they were released. But none of them hold a candle to the originals.īelow is a list of the most patriotic songs ever made in the honor of Pakistan to bring a little of that zest and patriotism back into the equation. Covers exist of basically every good song to come out of the 70s or 80s. On the music scene, pop groups continue to churn out songs after songs consisting of auto tuned voices, thousands of back-up vocals, heavy use of instruments and nonsensical, overly complex lyrics. There is therefore a need for a reminder of the good ol’ days when there was just one flag to represent Pakistan, and at least one day that ensured unity among even the most divided. 14 th August was meant to be a day to celebrate our beloved country, not a bunch of men vying for the control of it. The political turmoil in the country seems to have politicized our independence day as well. But the gratefulness characteristic of this day is sorely missing this year. And with that came the appreciation for the freedom we now know and enjoy. What the 14 th of August really did was act as a reminder of the sacrifices that our ancestors had to make and the struggles and hurdles our Quaid had to face so that Pakistan could come into being. And it didn’t warrant long marches either. The day we obtained our much fought for independence wasn’t always commemorated through pulling out silencers and participating in car parades in the middle of the night.
