Stand Ye Guamanians (Chamorro: Fanohge Chamoru), generically known as The Guam Hymn, is the official territorial anthem of Guam. Adopted in 1919, the words and music were written by Dr. Ramon Manalisay Sablan. The Chamorro version, which came later, was the work of Lagrimas Untalan.
As a United States dependency, the official national anthem is still the "Star Spangled Banner", which is always played before the Guam Hymn on official occasions. The Guam Hymn, however, is played alone at international sports competitions.
[edit] Chamorro lyrics
- Fanohge Chamoru put i 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 isle forever more.
- For her honor, for her glory
- Exalt our isle forever more.
- May everlasting peace reign o'er us
- May heaven's blessing to us come
- Against all peril, do not forsake us
- God protect our isle of Guam.
- Against all peril, do not forsake us
- God protect our isle of Guam.
