It was writen by Jaime Nunó Roca, but he moved to the USA shortly after traitor Santa Ana left Mexico, and according to wikipedia: "Nuno, Henneman and Hill did register the music with the company BMI (BMI Work #568879), with the Edward B. Marks Music Company as the listed publisher of the anthem." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Himno_Nacional_Mexicano
Now my question is, if a USA company holds the rights for it, can i buy it? who really owns it?

Chances are that it's the mexican equivalent of public domain, but if not, contact BMI or the publisher and ask.
Of course you probably can't "buy" it - no country is going to sell their national anthem for anything you or I could afford - but you could get the rights to use it.
I suspect, though, that it's in the public domain, if they have that legal concept there.

If you had been Mexican and did so it most of the time would not be a lot much less respectful on your nation's anthem than 20,000+ American enthusiasts mumbling the United States' country wide anthem on the begin of a ballgame. Where's Frankenstein, Tonto, and Tarzan whilst you wish to have 'em?

The national anthem of Mexico (Spanish Himno Nacional Mexicano) is a musical composition that was officially adopted in 1943. The national anthem's lyrics, which allude to Mexican victories in the heat of battle and cries of defending the homeland, were composed by poet Francisco González Bocanegra in 1853, after his fiancée locked him in a room. In 1854, Jaime Nunó arranged the music which now accompanies González's poem. The anthem, consisting of ten stanzas and a chorus, entered into use on September 16, 1854. From 1854 until its official adoption, the lyrics underwent several modifications due to political changes in Mexico. Unofficially, the anthem is sometimes called "Mexicanos, al grito de guerra" (Spanish for "Mexicans, at the cry of war") which is also the first line of the chorus.

Mexico... It belongs to proud citizens of an old country.. just because Suza wrote the star spangled banner dose not give him property rights.
It's not a rock or rap song...It's an anthem, try not to trivialize a beautiful work of classical music.
I think I may have misunderstood your question. I apologize
