After its independence from Italy and the United Kingdom in 1960, the Somali Republic adopted a new national anthem, written by Giuseppe Blanc (1886-1969). This anthem, which had neither lyrics nor a title, remained in use until 2000 when it was replaced with a new version. The newly adopted version has a new melody, and has lyrics.
