Maastricht is a city in the Netherlands. It is located in the southern part of the Dutch province of Limburg, of which it is the capital.

In 2002 the municipal government officially adopted a local anthem (Dutch: Maastrichts Volkslied, Limburgish (Maastrichtian variant): Mestreechs Volksleed) composed of lyrics in Maastrichtian. The theme was originally written by Alfons Olterdissen (1865--1923) as finishing stanza of the Maastrichtian opera "Trijn de Begijn" of 1910.

Lyrics (in Maastrichtian):

Jao diech höbs us aon 't hart gelege
Mestreech, door alle ieuwe heer
Veer bleve diech altied genege
En deilde dreufheid en plezeer
Veer huurde nao dien aw histories
Te peerd op grampeer ziene sjoet
Ues ouge blónke bij dien glories
Of perelde bij diene noet.

Wie dèks woorste neet priesgegeve,
Mèh heels dien kroen toch opgeriech
En ongeknak bis te gebleve,
Door euze band vaan trouw aon diech.
Daorum de hand us tòwgestoke,
't Oug geriech op 't stareleech;
En weur dat oug daan ins gebroke,
Daan beidt veur us het aajd Mestreech.
