"De Âlde Friezen" (Template:Langx) is the anthem of the Friesland province of the Netherlands.[1]

The text is by the Frisian writer Eeltsje Halbertsma.[1] The version commonly sung today is an abridgement, dating from 1876, by Jacobus van Loon. The words were not set to music until after Halbertsma's death; they were first sung in 1875 at a ceremony held to commemorate his work. The song was adopted as the Frisian anthem by the Selskip foar Frysk Taal- en Skriftekennisse (Society for Frisian Language and Literature) and has served as the anthem of Friesland ever since.
