The State Anthem of the Altai Republic was composed by Vladimir Peshnyak with lyrics by Arzhan Adarov. It was officially adopted on 11 September 2001.
The first three verses are sung in the Republic's official and native language, Altai, and the last two are sung in the Republic's state official language, Russian.[1]
Three lofty peaks Khan-Altai,
No traditions left behind.
Hawks sleep deep within the taigas,
No dogging taxes will drain us.
'Tis the birthplace of Altai,
One thousand lands of Altai.
Watching over her riches,
We'll too forever be Russians.
The sun hath forged thee, Altai,
So live and prosper on.
Preservering on and on,
And gorgeous is our Altai.
Altai with Russia for ages.
To thee and her we're loyal.
And with just one destiny
Perfused for eternity!
Altai!
