Motherland

Sparkling silver of rivers and lakes
Golden sun and falling snow-flakes
Virginal nature with forests and hills
Rarest animals, purest fields…

Refrain:

It’s my Motherland!
Crystal meadows and clear sky!
It’s my Motherland!
Here I was born and will die,
It’s my kingdom, my dear state
Here I will forever stay!
It’s my Motherland!
The country of spiritual wealth!

Greatest literature, music and art
People beautiful, honest and smart
Smiling mothers and laughing kids
Bleeding hearts and posthumous deeds…

Refrain:

It’s my Motherland!
Crystal meadows and clear sky!
It’s my Motherland!
Here I was born and will die,
It’s my kingdom, my dear state
Here I will forever stay!
It’s my Motherland!
The country of spiritual wealth!



Our customs, historical roots
Open hearts, friendly and faithful moods
Strongest minds and nations so vast
With marvellous past!
We’re united once and for all
So let’s save it from ruin and fall!

Refrain:

'Cause it’s our Motherland!
Crystal meadows and clear sky!
It’s our Motherland!
Here we were born and will die,
It’s our kingdom, our dear state
Here we will forever stay!
It’s our Motherland!
The country of spiritual wealth!
