The "Paraguayan National Anthem" (Spanish: Himno Nacional Paraguayo, Guarani: Tetã Paraguái Momorãhéi) is the national anthem of Paraguay. The lyrics were written by Francisco Acuña de Figueroa (who also wrote "Orientales, la Patria o la tumba", the national anthem of Uruguay) under the presidency of Carlos Antonio López, who at the time delegated Bernardo Jovellanos and Anastasio González to ask Figueroa to write the anthem (Jovellanos and González were commissioners of the Paraguayan government in Uruguay).
