Ok well I thought that since there are many people from many different countries on WP, that we should post our countries national anthem.
Of course, we don't need people to post for example, the USA national anthem 50 times so after your countries anthem has been posted then there's probably no need for you to post it again. :lol:

Here's the NZ National Anthem.

E Ihowā Atua,
O ngā iwi mātou rā
Āta whakarangona;
Me aroha noa
Kia hua ko te pai;
Kia tau tō atawhai;
Manaakitia mai
Aotearoa

God of Nations at Thy feet,
In the bonds of love we meet,
Hear our voices, we entreat,
God defend our free land.
Guard Pacific's triple star
From the shafts of strife and war,
Make her praises heard afar,
God defend New Zealand.

It may not be the real national anthem for England but it is a lot more relevant and most English people prefer this one.

The Star Spangled Banner-USA

It was in a poem written by Scott Keys called Defence of Fort McHenry during the war of 1812.

Star-Spangled Banner

Oh, say can you see?
By the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed
At the twilight's last gleaming

Whose broad stripes and bright stars
Through the perilous fight
O'er the ramparts we watched
Were so gallantly streaming

And the rockets' red glare
The bombs bursting in air
Gave proof through the night
That our flag was still there

O, say does that star spangled
Banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free
And the home of the brave

(I got the chills while typing down the lyrics. Long live the USA!)

It's not the official national anthem on England, but it should be.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRinooHU3ko[/youtube]

And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountains green
And was the holy lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen

And did the countenance divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among those dark Satanic mills

Bring me my bow of burning gold
Bring me my arrows of desire
Bring me my spears o'clouds unfold
Bring me my chariot of fire

I will not cease from mental fight
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
'Til we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land
'Til we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land

I have a tape of national anthems. I enjoy listening to it.
