"Románia"- Magyarország, Jégkorong (a három! Himnusz):)
After the Romanian and then the Hungarian national anthem was played, the audience started singing the Szekely (or Szekler) Anthem.
The Hungarian minority of Romania is the largest ethnic minority in Romania, consisting of 1,431,807 people and making up 6.6% of the total population (Wikipedia)
Most ethnic Hungarians of Romania live in areas that were, before the 1920 Treaty of Trianon, parts of Hungary. These areas are today known as Transylvania, where Hungarians make up 19.6 of the population.
Hungarian
Ki tudja merre, merre visz a végzet
Göröngyös úton, sötét éjjelen.
Vezesd még egyszer győzelemre néped,
Csaba királyfi csillagösvényen.
Göröngyös úton, sötét éjjelen.
Vezesd még egyszer győzelemre néped,
Csaba királyfi csillagösvényen.
Maroknyi székely porlik, mint a szikla
Népek harcának zajló tengerén.
Fejünk az ár, jaj, százszor elborítja,
Ne hagyd elveszni Erdélyt, Istenünk!
Népek harcának zajló tengerén.
Fejünk az ár, jaj, százszor elborítja,
Ne hagyd elveszni Erdélyt, Istenünk!
English translation
Who knows where destiny takes us
On a rough road on a dark night.
Lead your nation to victory once more,
Prince Csaba, on the stars' path.
On a rough road on a dark night.
Lead your nation to victory once more,
Prince Csaba, on the stars' path.
Handful of Székely being crushed like the cliffs
On the storming sea of the battle of nations.
Our heads are, oh, a hundred times covered by the tide,
Don't let Transylvania be lost, Our God!

Don't let Transylvania be lost, Our God!
