From the western borders to the very Kurils,

My native country lived in peace.

But God destined a difficult time for us,

When Russia gained its strength.

The dawn rises over the Kremlin wall,

And a firm gaze keeps our peace.

Vladimir Vladimirovich, Russia is with you!

Vladimir Vladimirovich, we are [safe] behind the wall!

You lead the ships through storm and fog,

Our chief guardian, our chieftain.

Vladimir Vladimirovich, strength and honor,

We know that people like you exist in Russia!

The country is on the march, and time waits for no one,

Russia is with you everywhere and always!

At sports arenas and in the workshops of machines,

Where science and labor move forward,

Your support is the school of fathers,

Who protect the Motherland like a fortress.
