Notuner Gaan
"Notuner Gan", more popularly known by its incipit "Chol Chol Chol", is the national march of Bangladesh, whose lyrics and tune were written by national poet Kazi Nazrul Islam in 1928. It was first published in the newspaper Shikha with the title Notuner Gaan, and was later included in Nazrul's book Sandha. The Bangladeshi government adopted this song as the national marching song of Bangladesh on 13 January 1972 in its first meeting after the country's independence. The first lines of the song are played at most military ceremonies or functions. The Daily Star has referred to it as the national military song. It was proposed for the national anthem of Bangladesh in 1975. The song ranked 18th in the list of the twenty greatest Bengali songs of all time in a 2006 survey conducted by BBC Bangla.
