Wikipedia: "Himnusz" – a song beginning with the words Isten, áldd meg a magyart listen (God, bless the Hungarians) – is a musical poetic prayer that serves as the official national anthem of Hungary. It was adopted in 1844 and the first stanza is sung at official ceremonies. The words were written by Ferenc Kölcsey, a nationally renowned poet in 1823, and its currently official musical setting was composed by the romantic composer Ferenc Erkel, although other less-known musical versions exist.
