Russia — our sacred power,
Russia — our beloved country.
Mighty will, great glory —
Your heritage for all of time!
Refrain:
Glory to you, our free Fatherland,
Age-old union of fraternal peoples,
Ancestor-given wisdom of the people!
Glory to you, our country! We are proud of you!
From the southern seas to the polar regions
Spread our forests and fields.
You are the only one in the world! You alone are like this —
Our dear land protected by God!
Refrain
Vast expanses for dreams and for living
Get opened up for us with each passing year.
Our loyalty to the Motherland gives us strength.
Thus it was, is, and always shall be!
Refrain
