The Thai National Anthem,[a] also simply referred to as the National Anthem,[b] is the national anthem of Thailand. It was officially adopted in its current form on 10 December 1939. It replaced "Sansoen Phra Barami" in 1932, which remains as the royal anthem of Thailand. The melody was composed by Phra Chenduriyang (Peter Feit), and the official lyrics were written by Luang Saranupraphan.
Prior to 1939, when Thailand was then known as "Siam", two different lyrical versions were used—each one by different authors.
