English translation[]
Blue skies full of stars,
So vast, yet free is the Khan of Altai.
The three peaks of the calm Taigas
This sacred, ancient Altai.
Three peaks stand as the Khan of Altai
To go from here, there will be no traditions.
The hawk sleeps well in the forests
Tenacious taxes do not exist.
This is the Altai nation's birthplace
Altai's one thousand holy places.
Protecting her flowing wealth
We are Russians all our lives.[3]
You are created by the sun, Altai,
Live and prosper.
You are steadfast forever,
And our Altai is beautiful.
Altai with Russia for centuries.
To you and her we are loyal.
And with a single destiny
Are forever perfused.
Altai!
Trivia[]
- Like the Tatar state anthem and some versions of the Buryat state anthem, the Altai state anthem has both the native language and Russian sung in one piece.
- The State Anthem of the Altai Republic was officially adopted on the same day of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
