"Ardh ul-Furatayn" (Land of The Two Rivers) (Arabic: أرض الفراتين) is the old national anthem of Iraq.
The anthem was adopted in 1981, written by Shafiq Alkamali with music by Walid Georges Gholmieh. After the ousting of the Saddam Hussein government in 2004, the Iraqi government selected a new national anthem, Mawtini.
