Stand Ye Guamanians

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Stand Ye Guamanians" (Chamorro: Fanohge Chamoru) is the official territorial anthem of Guam. As a United States dependency, the official national anthem is still the "Star Spangled Banner". Adopted in 1919, the words and music were written by Ramon Manalisay Sablan.

[edit] Chamorro lyrics

Fanohge Chamoru put it tano'-ta
Kånta i ma tunå-ña gi todu i lugåt.
Para i onra, para i gloria
Abiba i isla sen parat.
Para i onra, para i gloria
Abiba i isla sen parat.
U todu i tiempo i pas para hita
Yan ginen i langet na bendesion.
Kontra i piligru, na'fansåfo' ham
Yu'os prutehi i islan Guåhan.
Kontra i piligru, na'fansåfo' ham
Yu'os prutehi i islan Guåhan.

[edit] English lyrics

Stand ye Guamanians for your country
And sing her praise from shore to shore
For her honor, for her glory
Exalt our island forever more.
For her honor, for her glory
Exalt our island forever more.
May everlasting peace reign o'er us
May heaven's blessing to us come
Against all perils, do not forsake us
God protect our isle of Guam.
Against all perils, do not forsake us
God protect our isle of Guam.
