The National Anthem[1] (Burmese: နိုင်ငံတော်သီချင်း; MLCTS: Nuingngamtausihkyang:; Burmese pronunciation: [nàɪɴŋàɴtɔ̀θìtɕʰɪ́ɴ]; lit. 'State Song') is the national anthem of Myanmar. It consists of two parts; the first half is a traditional Burmese style section, before transitioning into the second half, a Western-style orchestra. Because of the second half, both the "National Anthem" and its predecessor "Dobama Song" are popularly known as "Kaba Ma Kyei" (Burmese: ကမ္ဘာမကျေ; MLCTS: Ka.bha ma. kye, Burmese pronunciation: [ka̰bà ma̰ tɕè]; lit. 'Till the End of the World').[2][3]
