    ok i will sing it haha in english translation :50:

    A treasure is our tongue that surges
    From deep shadows of the past,
    Chain of precious stones that scattered
    All over our ancient land.
    A burning flame is our tongue
    Amidst a people waking
    From a deathly sleep, no warning,
    Like the brave man of the stories.
    Our tongue is made of songs
    From our soul's deepest desires,
    Flash of lighting striking swiftly
    Through dark clouds and blue horizons

    I don't know why I didn't realise the Russian Anthem is beautiful, until now. Although I do not know the lyrics, the melody is touching. Thanks. :)

    As a Scotsman I think the Welsh national anthem is brilliant its bursting with pride and emotion . I always have a tear in my eye when I hear it sung by a large crowd . Pure * brilliance .

    Very good.

    In all seriousness though, what a * * song eh?

    Also, the next president of the 26 Counties thinks the Soldiers Song is a tad aggressive and wants something less offensive to the English.

    Hope Marty has him shot.

    me too. Got to admit the Scottish and Irish national anthems just dont compete.


    I love this bit from Casablanca where the French sing the Marseilles to drown out the Nazis singing Deutchland Uber Ales. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yt1vQ81jNWw

    I've just logged in, 'cos I just wanted to show you another version of S. Korean anthem. It's a rock version arranged by the rock band called 'YB'(Yoon do-hyun band). I think it was performed for cheering during 2006 World cup season. We go crazy when it comes to the national team. :)
    I thought this could be interesting so I wanted to show you.
    Now, I'll go get some sleep again, See you ! :-D

    nice to see the Welsh anthem getting the love. it is amazing to be honest.

    anyway, my 2nd favourite one and to be honest the only other national anthem I care about enough to listen on youtube is Flower of Scotland. what an amazing anthem, spinetingling and aggressive! especially with the addons, * off Edward!

    http://youtu.be/vsmGqTVkv6k

    ^^ greatest rendering of any anthem ever. Wales vs England rugby 2011. look how loud it is.

    on a side note, iwont post the video from the wales england football game in february, 70,000 welshmen booing GSTQ along with my 3minute rant against the english and royalty will hurt your ears ha
