The National Anthem of Chile, also referred to as the "National Song" or by its incipit as "Puro, Chile, es tu cielo azulado" ("Pure, Chile, Is Your Bluish Sky"), was adopted in 1828. It has a history of two lyrics and two melodies that made up three different versions. The current version was composed by Ramón Carnicer, with words by Eusebio Lillo, and has six parts plus the chorus.
