History edit
Kingdom of Libya edit
"Libya, Libya, Libya" was composed by Mohammed Abdel Wahab in 1951 and was originally the national anthem of the Kingdom of Libya, from its independence in 1951 until 1969 when King Idris I was overthrown by a bloodless coup d'état led by Muammar Gaddafi. The lyrics were written by Al Bashir Al Arebi.[1]
Libyan Arab Republic edit
In 1969, Muammar Gaddafi adopted the Egyptian anthem "Walla Zaman Ya Selahy" as the national anthem of the newly proclaimed Libyan Arab Republic. It was later changed to the Egyptian military marching song "Allahu Akbar", which remained the anthem of republic, and later, the Great Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya, until 2011.[2]
Libyan civil war edit
In 2011, "Libya, Libya, Libya" was declared as the new national anthem of Libya by the National Transitional Council. "Libya, Libya, Libya" ultimately did become the national anthem of Libya once again, following the Libyan Civil War and the death of Muammar Gaddafi. The verse that glorifies King Idris (shown in italics) has since been discontinued and rewritten to glorify Libyan national hero Omar al-Mukhtar, who spearheaded native Libyan resistance against Italian colonization during the Second Italo-Senussi War.[3]
