The Qaumī Tarāna (Urdu: قومی ترانہ) is the national anthem of Pakistan. At independence, on August 14, 1947, Pakistan did not have a national anthem. When the flag was hoisted at the independence ceremony it was accompanied by the song, "Pakistan Zindabad, Azadi Paendabad". The flag itself had only been approved by the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan three days earlier.[1][2][3] Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the founder of Pakistan, asked Lahore-based Hindu writer, Jagannath Azad on August 9, 1947 to write a national anthem for Pakistan in five days.[4] Jinnah may have done this to promote a more secular idealism for Pakistan.[5] The anthem written by Azad was quickly approved by Jinnah, and it was played on Radio Pakistan.[6] Azad's work remained as Pakistans national anthem for approximately eighteen months, despite competition from a rival attempt by a Mr B T Baghar.
