Oh Gloria Inmarcesible!
From Academic Kids
"¡Oh Gloria inmarcesible!" ("O Unfading Glory!") is the national anthem of Colombia. The lyrics were written by President Rafael Núñez and the music was composed by Oreste Sindici. The anthem was first performed in 1887 and officially adopted in 1920.
(Note: Normally, in all radio and TV broadcasts the national anthem is voluntarily performed (at 6:00 AM and 6:00 PM) in the following manner: the chorus, first verse and chorus once again are sung. This is also how it is performed in all events.)
