Product Description

Du gamla, du fria[a] ('Thou Olden, Thou Free'), from its first verse, originally titled Sång till Norden[b] ('Song to the North'), is the de facto national anthem of Sweden. Its music is based on a Swedish folk tune with lyrics written by Swedish antiquarian Richard Dybeck in 1844.

The song is notable for neither mentioning nor referring to Sweden specifically at all, or even a nation; making the Polish national anthem the only national anthem to mention Sweden.
