Your Country's National Anthem - General

Lofsöngur Ó, guð vors lands! Ó, lands vors guð! Vér lofum þitt heilaga, heilaga nafn! Úr sólkerfum himnanna hnýta þér krans þínir herskarar, tímanna safn. Fyrir þér er einn dagur sem þúsund ár og þúsund ár dagur, ei meir: eitt eilífðar smáblóm með titrandi tár, sem tilbiður guð sinn og deyr. :/: Íslands þúsund ár, :/: eitt eilífðar smáblóm með titrandi tár, sem tilbiður guð sinn og deyr. Ó, guð, ó, guð! Vér föllum fram og fórnum þér brennandi, brennandi sál, guð faðir, vor drottinn frá kyni til kyns, og vér kvökum vort helgasta mál. Vér kvökum og þökkum í þúsund ár, því þú ert vort einasta skjól. Vér kvökum og þökkum með titrandi tár, því þú tilbjóst vort forlagahjól. :/: Íslands þúsund ár :/: voru morgunsins húmköldu, hrynjandi tár, sem hitna við skínandi sól. Ó, guð vors lands! Ó, lands vors guð! Vér lifum sem blaktandi, blaktandi strá. Vér deyjum, ef þú ert ei ljós það og líf, sem að lyftir oss duftinu frá. Ó, vert þú hvern morgun vort ljúfasta líf, vor leiðtogi í daganna þraut og á kvöldin vor himneska hvíld og vor hlíf og vor hertogi á þjóðlífsins braut. :/: Íslands þúsund ár :/: verði gróandi þjóðlíf með þverrandi tár, sem þroskast á guðsríkis braut. Iceland´s National Anthem...dear god I hate this country...

What is with the people thinking the first part of our anthem is forbidden? It's not, it's just not official..... I can see the reasons though.... [quote] Deutschland, Deutschland über alles, Über alles in der Welt, Wenn es stets zu Schutz und Trutze Brüderlich zusammenhält, Von der Maas bis an die Memel, Von der Etsch bis an den Belt – Deutschland, Deutschland über alles, Über alles in der Welt! Deutsche Frauen, deutsche Treue, Deutscher Wein und deutscher Sang Sollen in der Welt behalten Ihren alten schönen Klang, Uns zu edler Tat begeistern Unser ganzes Leben lang – Deutsche Frauen, deutsche Treue, Deutscher Wein und deutscher Sang! Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit Für das deutsche Vaterland! Danach lasst uns alle streben Brüderlich mit Herz und Hand! Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit Sind des Glückes Unterpfand – Blüh im Glanze dieses Glückes, Blühe, deutsches Vaterland! [/quote] Translation: [quote]Germany, Germany above all, Above all in the world, When, for protection and defence, it always takes a brotherly stand together. From the Meuse to the Memel, From the Adige to the Belt, |: Germany, Germany above everything, Above everything in the world. :| German women, German loyalty, German wine and German song Shall retain in the world Their old beautiful chime And inspire us to noble deeds During all of our life. |: German women, German loyalty, German wine and German song! :| Unity and justice and freedom For the German fatherland! For these let us all strive Brotherly with heart and hand! Unity and justice and freedom Are the pledge of fortune; |: Flourish in this fortune's blessing, Flourish, German fatherland. :| [/quote] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cAK23saAI1I[/media]

[QUOTE=The Colonel;8878672][B]Poland (Where I was born :patriot:) - [/B] Jeszcze Polska nie zginela, Kiedy my zyjemy. Co nam obca przemoc wziela, Szabla odbierzemy. Chorus Marsz, marsz, Dabrowski, Z ziemi wloskiej do Polski, Za twoim przewodem Zlaczym sie z narodem. Przejdziem Wisle, przejdziem Warte, Bedziem Polakami, Dal nam przyklad Bonaparte, Jak zwyciezac mamy. Chorus Jak Czarniecki do Poznania Po szwedzkim zaborze, Dla ojczyzny ratowania Wracal sie przez morze. Chorus[/QUOTE] Poland's national anthem is really good. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2nmFHUbVQtA[/media] I'm British, but our national anthem is crap anyway, so I'll claim Poland's as my own since I'm half Polish.

I am aware that it's been around since before Hitler, but I'm just explaining the way people think when they think it's illegal.
