Abstract

National song Milli Naghma is a distinguished genre of Urdu litrature due to its diverse structural qualities and patriotic emotions which make it unique from other genres. Unfortunately, this genre remained devoid of its identity in Urdu literature and it had been considered as a part or sub genre of different genres especialy "song". Indeed, National song has more rhythmical and musical qualities like the genre of "song" than other geners of Urdu literature, but it is different at its thematical level and a reasonable range of topics, which makes its identity as an independent genre. This article lays emphasis upon the individuality and separate genre identity of MIilli Naghma.
