In the track, Abrar narrates how Pakistan’s military countered India’s offensive, praising the defenders’ bravery and unity. Staying true to his style, the lyrics blend nationalism with religious fervour, highlighting the spiritual conviction of Muslim soldiers. The singer also makes a pointed cultural reference: “chai pilai gayi” (tea was served), echoing the viral catchphrase from the 2019 Abhinandan episode, which has now become a symbol of pride and defiance.
Musically, the song is punchy and direct. With marching drum beats, orchestral flourishes, and Abrar’s signature vocal energy, it’s a full-blown rallying cry. While some might find the religious undertones overly didactic, the track does exactly what it’s meant to: ignite patriotic emotion. Its lack of a music video hasn’t dimmed its momentum. In fact, fans say the audio alone gave them “goosebumps.”
Beyond its celebratory tone, the song serves as a cultural timestamp, capturing the public mood in the immediate aftermath of Pakistan’s military response. Abrar Ul Haq’s choice to emphasise both faith and force reflects a long-standing tradition in Pakistani patriotic music, where spirituality and nationalism often intersect. The anthem also revives the historic rivalry with India in lyrical form, evoking pride without slipping into aggression. While some critics may question the glorification of conflict, many fans view the song as a morale booster and a reminder of national unity.
Social media platforms have been flooded with praise. “The Pakistan forces truly deserve such a tribute after a remarkable victory,” wrote one user. Another said, “Abrar Ul Haq has captured the nation’s sentiment perfectly. This is patriotism through art.” Others called the track “timely,” “needed,” and “deeply emotional.” The anthem has quickly become the unofficial soundtrack of national pride, with supporters playing it at gatherings, in vehicles, and across celebratory reels online.
Abrar’s anthem joins a rich tradition of Pakistani patriotic songs like Dil Dil Pakistan by Vital Signs, Jeevay Jeevay Pakistan, and Ae Watan Kay Sajeelay Jawano. These songs have historically uplifted national morale during wars, crises, and independence days, blending music with national memory and emotional resilience across generations.
