It so happened that Salman was planning to play the song at a PTI Convention, and he couldnt do it right, somehow. The other incident he relates to is Salman Ahmads feat that went viral on YouTube and Facebook. It was then that I started singing this song and they came back and started singing with me. The crowd which consisted of almost 80 Pakistanis started dispersing. I was there, about to recite the naat, when it started pouring heavily.

On a trip to Canada, where he had gone to recite a naat at an event, Jamshed relates a story of how dispersing crowds came together when he began to sing. On a more positive note, Jamshed tells us that he has sung the song twice in recent times. What sense does aisi zameen, aur asmaan make when you have no value for another Pakistani living on the same soil he beseeches, adding that people today are happier to make sacrifices for a political party instead of their own country. He continues, Sadly, there is too much hatred that has sprung amongst our countrymen. I dont want to associate myself with music anymore, but I certainly cannot disassociate myself with Dil Dil Pakistan.īut when asked how relevant the lyrics of the song are today, Jamshed confesses that the landscape and dynamics have changed. While Jamshed left music years ago, he confesses that the song is close to his heart. When this anthem is played in Englands Lords cricket ground, you certainly cant estimate how meaningful it becomes for us as a nation. I became associated with Shoaib Mansoor, Shahzad Hasan, Rohail Hyatt, Nusrat Hussain, Salman Ahmad and Rizwanul Haq through this one song. There is an emotional attachment to this song it is the countrys song.įor Jamshed, his journey with the band began when this song came about. On August 14, 26 years after the song was first aired on PTV, The Express Tribune talks to former Vital Signs vocalist Junaid Jamshed the singer of what is known as the second national anthem of Pakistan as well as the bands biggest hit about his attachment to the number as well as its relevance today. Unlike recent times, where former prime minister Gilani could utter a statement like why dont they just go then whos stopping them with distressing poise, Dil Dil Pakistan s lyrics in ke siva, jaana kahan with the simple melody and percussions of the 90s (courtesy Shahzad Hasan and Nusrat Hussai) were endearing and addictive. The melodious expression of love penned by Shoaib Mansoor, in Junaid Jamsheds soft, soothing voice and Rohail Hyatts winning composition came about at a time when patriots were fed up with General Zias stifling dictatorship and were dreaming of freedom. So that all the indian trolls could vote (1000 times each for none of the above) to desperately win the poll.
