"Mawṭinī" (Arabic: موطني, lit. 'My Homeland') is an Arabic national poem by the Palestinian poet Ibrahim Tuqan, composed by the Lebanese musician Mohammed Flayfel in 1934, and is a popular patriotic song among the Arab people.[1]
Mawṭinī is the national anthem of Iraq, being adopted as such in 2004. The song formerly served as an unofficial anthem of Palestinians for much of the 20th century. In 1996, Palestine formally adopted it as the official national anthem.[2][3] Though it has since been superseded by an official national anthem there, many Palestinians still identify strongly with it and consider it an unofficial second national anthem of their country. It is considered one of the Arab national anthems, including two periods where it was the national anthem of Iraq.
