Diversity of Lands of Pakistan

(Poem)

High mountains in Baltistan;

Lush green plains and rushing rivers of Punjab;

Thal, Thar, Thar Parkar of Punjab, Sindh and Balochistan;

Valley and sides of Khyber Pakhtoon Khaw;

All in bound in our beloved Pakistan.

Folklores of Sassi-Punu, Heer-Ranjha;

Infusing love and Primitivity of people;

From the land of five rivers;

Harapa and Moinjodarro of Indus valley;

Echoing the civilization of last ages;

Himaliyas, Karakuram and Hidukush;

Whispering with cosmos, reflecting the heaven;

Basin that kiss the ocean, deserts that hide in treasure;

Constitute the great republic of Pakistan.

Seasons, though, are in clutch of time;

Yet here we relish at same time;

The cool gusts and burning day;

on diverse lands of colorful Pakistan.

Where fruits laden the trees;

Where nuts never stop showers;

Where grain love to pierce out the clay;

Where nature wrights divers tastes;

In vegetables cladding in various hues.

Here doctors, engineers, technicians found;

Accomplished economist, scientists and artists crowned;

Eminent builders, writers and artisans abound;

Who build every inch of Pakistan;

And earn good name for this great homeland.
