Baslerlied
The Basler Lied is the anthem of the city of Basel .
The melody comes from Franz Wilhelm Abt (1819–1885) and the text was written in Basel German by Johann Peter Hebel (1760–1826). The melody was also used in the military march in Basel. The Basler Lied is also very popular at FC Basel games . For the latter purpose, the text has been partially changed ("Red-blue Eff-Cee-Bee, ...").
