Vårt land

The Finland National Anthem, also known as "Maamme" or "Vårt land" in Finnish and Swedish respectively, was composed by Fredrik Pacius in 1848. It serves as the national anthem of Finland. Originally written in the key of F major, it was adopted as the national anthem after Finland gained independence from Russia in 1917. The lyrics were penned by Johan Ludvig Runeberg and later translated into Finnish by Paavo Cajander. The anthem is a symbol of Finnish identity and patriotism, celebrating the beauty and resilience of the Finnish landscape and people. With its stirring melody and evocative lyrics, it is often performed at national and patriotic events in Finland.
