Russian Transliteration IPA transcription English translation

Славься, славься, родина-Россия!
Сквозь века и грозы ты прошла
И сияет солнце над тобою
И судьба твоя светла.

Над старинным московским Кремлём
Вьётся знамя с двуглавым орлом
И звучат священные слова:
Славься, Русь – Отчизна моя!

Slav'sya, slav'sya, rodina-Rossiya!
Skvoz' veka i grozy ty proshla!
I siyayet solntse nad toboyu
I sud'ba tvoya svetla!

Nad starinnym moskovskim Kremlyom
V'yotsya znamya s dvuglavym orlom
I zvuchat svyashchennyye slova:
Slav'sya, Rus' – Otchizna moya!

Glory, glory, Motherland-Russia!
Through the centuries and thunderstorms, you have passed
And the sun is shining upon you
And your fate is bright.

Above the ancient Moscow Kremlin
A banner with a two-headed eagle is hovering
And the sacred words sound:
Glory, Russia - my Fatherland!

"Above the Fatherland Majestically"

Russian Transliteration English translation

Над Отчизной величаво –
Башни древнего Кремля.
Славься, прадедов держава,
Вся Российская земля!

Ты – духовностью богата
И соборностью крепка –
По крупице, трудно, свято
Собиралась на века.

Единением народов
Нерушима и сильна,
Одолеет все невзгоды
Наша мудрая страна.

Над Отчизной величаво –
Башни древнего Кремля.
Славься, прадедов держава,
Вся Российская земля!

Nad Otchiznoy velichavo –
Bashni drevnego Kremlya.
Slav'sya, pradedov derzhava,
Vsya Rossiyskaya zemlya!

Ty – dukhovnost'yu bogata
I sobornost'yu krepka –
Po krupitse, trudno, svyato,
Sobiralas' na veka.

Yedineniyem narodov
Nerushima i sil'na,
Odoleyet vse nevzgody
Nasha mudraya strana.

Nad Otchiznoy velichavo –
Bashni drevnego Kremlya.
Slav'sya, pradedov derzhava
Vsya Rossiyskaya zemlya!

Above the Fatherland majestically –
The towers of the ancient Kremlin.
Hail, State of our forefathers,
All the Russian land!

You — rich in spirituality
And strong in fellowship –
Gradually, through hardship and holiness,
Have come together forever.

Through unity of its peoples,
Unbreakable and strong,
Our wise country
Will overcome all adversities.

Above the Fatherland majestically –
The towers of the ancient Kremlin.
Hail, State of our forefathers,
All the Russian land!
