"Old New Hampshire" is the regional anthem (or state song) of the U.S. state of New Hampshire. The words were written by Dr. John F. Holmes and the music was composed by Maurice Hoffman in 1926. The song was designated as the official state song in 1949 and again in November 1977 by the State Song Selection Board. New Hampshire has nine honorary state songs and no other official state song.
