Lyrics Ramazan Baytimerov, 2013 | ||
The National Anthem of the Republic of Tatarstan (Russian: Государственный гимн Республики Татарстан; Tatar: Татарстан Җөмһүрияте Дәүләт гимны, Tatarstan Cömhüriäte Däwlät gimnı), composed by Röstäm Yäxin, and has no lyrics. It was adopted on 14 July 1993.
Attempts to write lyrics in the Tatar language were proposed. Ramazan Baytimerov's version was titled Tuğan yağım (My native country):
However since both Russian and Tatar are official languages of Tatarstan, and it is difficult to have corresponding Russian words to a Tatar text, due to the different structures of the two languages, the lyrics are not official. In February 2013, the official lyrics were adopted.

Live forever, beloved motherland,
My people are united with you!
We are born with generosity.
Different people live with us.
Since different generarions, you have a beautiful history.
My glorious country, your history is heroic!
We found ourselves with you again,
My republic, Tatarstan!
We found ourselves with you again,
My republic, Tatarstan!
Flourish, holy land,
Let thy peace fill your sky,
We are united in this big family.
People are able to live in harmony
With our rich and ancient wisdom that we had for centuries.
You are our only hope, and faith,
And let thy love fill your heart.
My republic, my Tatarstan!
And let thy love fill your heart;
My republic, my Tatarstan!
