Hino de Lojban
Poucos sabem disso, mas Lojban possui um Hino:

Nick Nicholas tinha trabalhado uma melodia para o hino, e ele está logo abaixo. (Um comentário de (Athelstan sobre a melodia é que, quando ele ouviu em 1993, parecia uma melodia típica de um hino de alguma nação do Terceiro Mundo.)
- Depois de ouvir muitos hinos nacionais de países do Terceiros Mundo, eu tendo a concordar, mas apenas na medida em que um hino nacional "típico" país do Terceiro Mundo existe. -- tsali
Nick Nicholas would also like to suggest some rewordings, so that the two stanzas are actually singable to the same tune (as Lojbab exults in the email "If I can write Lojban poetry, anyone can". Yes, but not everyone can write it metrically :-) ) . In addition, he's added a short chorus, because the tune went in different directions in his brain, and corrected some out of date place structures (as pointed out by tsali: Lojban Anthem: English translation.)
