God, protect the Tsar!
Strong and majestic,
Reign for glory, For our glory!
Reign to foes’ fear,
Orthodox Tsar.
God, protect the Tsar!

Боже, Царя храни!
Сильный, державный,
Царствуй на славу, на славу нам!
Царствуй на страх врагам,
Царь православный!
Боже, Царя храни!

Bozhe, Tsarya khrani!
Sil’niy, derzhavniy,
Tsarstvuiy na ‘slavu, Na ‘slavu nam!
Tsarstvuiy na strakh vragam,
Tsar pravoslavniy.
Bozhe, Tsarya khrani!
