English: 

Unbreakable union of freeborn republics 
Great Russia has welded forever to stand! 
Created in struggle by will of the peoples 
United and mighty, our Soviet land! 

Chorus: 
Glory to you, our free Motherland, 
Bulwark of people, in brotherhood strong! 
Oh! Party of Lenin! The strength of the people. 
To Communism's triumph lead us on! 

Through tempests the sun rays of freedom have cheered us 
Along the new path where great Lenin did lead! 
To a righteous cause he raised up the people 
Inspired them to labour and valorous deed! 

Chorus 

In the victory of Communism's deathless ideal, 
We see the future of our dear land 
And to her fluttering scarlet banner, 
selflessly true, we always shall stand!
