O Tannenbaum written by [Traditional], Ernst Gebhard Anschutz
- Comments
- "Maryland, My Maryland" is the regional anthem of the U.S. state of Maryland. The song is set to the melody of "Lauriger Horatius"— the same tune "O Tannenbaum" was taken from. The lyrics are from a nine-stanza poem written by James Ryder Randall (1839–1908) in 1861. The state's general assembly adopted "Maryland, My Maryland" as the state song on April 29, 1939.
