History

The anthem's melody was composed by Léo Morgan, a French military officer and chief of music for the royal Moroccan guard, under the reign of Sultan Yusef and Hubert Lyautey during the French protectorate.[1]

After the Moroccan national football team qualified for the 1970 World Cup in Mexico for the first time, the idea to write lyrics for the anthem was proposed. Lyrics by writer Ali Squalli Houssaini were either chosen as part of a competition by King Hassan II, or Hassan directly commissioned Houssaini to write the lyrics.[1]

Root of the free,
Rising place of the Lights,
Forum of glory and its protector,
May you perpetuate as its forum and its protector.
May you live among the homelands
As an address for grandeur
Filling every heart
conveyed by every tongue.
With the spirit,
With the body,
Your son has come
To answer your call.
In my mouth and in my blood,
Your love stirred up as light and fire.
Let’s go brothers!
Heading for grandeur,
Making the world witness
That we here perpetually live
With the motto:
Allah, homeland, king.
