Abhi jo National Anthem Hai woh tu Abul Asar Hafeez Jalandhari ne likha hai.

Mager First National Anthem Jis k bol yeh thy

""Aey sarzameen-e-pak
Zarrey terey hein
aaj sitaron sey tabnak
Roshan heh kehkashan sey
kahin aaj teri khak"

yeh National Anthem Ek Pakistani Hindu "Jagannath Azad" ne Likha tha jo k Lahore mein rehty thy aur yeh National Anthem Radio Pakistan Karachi se Nashar bhi huwa tha 14 Agust ko but yeh woh tareekh hai jo k batai nahin jati hai but yeh hai.

Thank you dear friends, Mr Truth and Shining Star for your kind responses.

Sadly Dr Jagannath Azad the author of first Pakistani Anthem has passed away last year. Here is his friend's tribute to him.
