greek national anthem

     

The Hymn to Liberty (Greek: Ὕμνος εἰς τὴν Ἐλευθερίαν Ýmnos eis tīn Eleutherían) is a poem written by Dionýsios Solomós in 1823 that consists of 158 stanzas, set to music by Nikolaos Mantzaros. In 1865, the first two stanzas officially became the national anthem of Greece an later also that of the Republic of Cyprus. According to the Constitution of the Republic Of Cyprus, Greek national anthem is used in the presence of the Greek Cypriot president (or other Greek Cypriot) and Turkish national anthem is used in the presence of the Turkish Cypriot vice-president. In fact Turkish national anthem stopped to be used by Cyprus after the Turkish Cypriots breakaway from Government since 1963. Hymn to Liberty was also the Greek Royal Anthem.
