The Marcha Real (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈmaɾtʃa reˈal]; lit. 'Royal March') is the national anthem of Spain. It is one of only four national anthems in the world – along with those of Bosnia and Herzegovina, San Marino and Kosovo – that have no official lyrics.^[2] Although many different lyrics have been made for it in the past, it has never had official lyrics as a national anthem.^[3]
