Another unforgettable classic by Shahnaz Begum, Sohni Dharti is perhaps one of the most moving patriotic songs that brings a lump to the throat even today. Penned by Masroor Anwar, the heart-touching lyrics were set to music by Sohail Rana. First sung in 1970, this immortal classic was later rendered by greats like Mehdi Hassan, Madam Nur Jehan, who sang it for a Pakistani film, and Habib Wali Mohammad.
