National Anthem of Russia  music only  with lyrics   PowerPoint

"Gimn Rossiyskoy Federatsii"

On January 1, 2001, Russia's new president Vladimir Putin, decided to give the Russian people a new anthem, since a common complaint was not having words to their current anthem. So Putin adopted the old anthem from the Soviet Union, identifying with the country's past. New words, however, to replace the Communist-style words, were written by Sergei Vladimirovich Mikhalkov (the same person who wrote the lyrics to the old Soviet anthem!) to go with the existing music.

RUSSIAN LYRICS

Rossiya svyaschennaya nasha dyerzhava
Rossiya lyubimaya nasha strana
Moguchaya volya vyelikaya slava
Tvoyo dostoyan'ye na vsya vryemyena!!!

CHORUS:
Slav'sya Otechestvo, nashe svobodnoye
Bratskikh narodov soyuz vyekovoy
Predkami dannaya mudrost' narodnaya
Slav'sya strana my gordimsya toboy!

ENGLISH TRANSLATION
　

1. O Russia, for ever you're strong sacred country!
O Russia, for ever the land that we love!
The glory that's great and the will that is mighty -
So be they thy virtue for ages to come.

CHORUS
Praised be the Fatherland, cherishing home of ours -
Cent'ries-old union of peoples in free,
Popular wisdom given us by forefathers.
Praised be our country! And we're proud of thee!
