Which do you think is the most beautiful national anthem? Maybe the most relevant to the actual country? Or maybe it's just the tune.
Which ever it is, post it here and tell us why you like it.

Sorry for being so proud, but I think my national Anthem is the most beautiful, with maybe the Russia or New Zealand next. It shows it beauty, it's shows compassion for out history, and it shows we will never back down from the invaders. :shy:

lyrics
[spoil]
Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi,
The land of my fathers, the land of my choice,
Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri;
The land in which poets and minstrels rejoice;
Ei gwrol ryfelwyr, gwladgarwyr tra mâd,
The land whose stern warriors were true to the core,
Tros ryddid gollasant eu gwaed.
While bleeding for freedom of yore.
Cytgan
Chorus
Gwlad, Gwlad, pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad.
Wales! Wales! fav'rite land of Wales!
Tra môr yn fur i'r bur hoff bau,
While sea her wall, may naught befall
O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.
To mar the old language of Wales.
Hen Gymru fynyddig, paradwys y bardd,
Old mountainous Wales, the Eden of bards,
Pob dyffryn, pob clogwyn i'm golwg sydd hardd;
Each hill and each valley, excite my regards;
Trwy deimlad gwladgarol, mor swynol yw si
To the ears of her patriots how charming still seems
Ei nentydd, afonydd i mi.
The music that flows in her streams.
(This one is not usually sung)
Os treisiodd y gelyn fy ngwald tan ei droed,
My country tho' crushed by a hostile array,
Mae hen iaith y Cymry mor fyw ac erioed,
The language of Wales lives out to this day;
Ni luddiwyd yr awen gan erchyll law brad,
The muse has eluded the traitors' foul knives,
Na thelyn berseiniol fy ngwlad.
The harp of my country survives.
