Here is English translation of a poem from "Naghmat-e-Pakistan":

O my native land !

O my native land !

Far better than a garden

Is your dust and sand

What a dignified place you are

Full of grace and beauty,as star

You are protected and saved,indeed

By the Mercy of God,near not far !

O my native land !

O my native land !

Far better than a garden

Is your dust and sand

Ever-flowing rivers and valleys

Charming scene of butterflies and bees

So much soothing is your environment

Like a paradise,full of ease

O my native land !

O my native land !

Far better than a garden

Is your dust and sand

Phool,the poet is praying always

God bless you during nights and days

Long live upto the Doomsday

With the joyful refulgence and rays

O my native land !

O my native land !

Far better than a garden

Is your dust and sand

(An Urdu poem):

Aie watan ! aie watan !

Keya hai teri phaban

Tujh pa saaya fegan

Rahmat-e-Zulminan

Aie watan ! aie watan !

Tu hai rashk-e-chaman

Tujh maiN darya rawaaN

Aur haseeN waadiyaaN

Kitni taskeen-e-jaaN

Teri yeh anjuman

Aie watan ! aie watan !

Tu hai rashk-e-chaman

Tu taraqqi karay

Taa qiyaamat rahay

Khoob phoolay phalay

Phool kaa hai sukhan

Aie watan ! aie watan !

Tu hai rashk-e-chaman

(This poem was broad-casted by Radio Pakistan in 1969)
