The former State Anthem of the Republic of Kazakhstan^[a] was used as the national anthem of Kazakhstan from 1991 to early 2006. Upon independence in December 1991, the melody of the Anthem of the Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic, composed by musicians Mūqan Tölebaev, Yevgeny Brusilovsky and Latif Hamidi, was retained; and new lyrics written by authors Mūzafar Älımbaev, Qadyr Myrza Älı, Tūmanbai Moldağaliev and Jadyra Därıbaeva were adopted in 1992. The lyrics were written by four people including poet Jadyra Därıbaeva, one of only a handful of women to have ever been involved in writing a national anthem.^[1]

On 7 January 2006, it was officially replaced by "Menıñ Qazaqstanym",^[2] the country's current national anthem.

Lyrics

Kazakh original

Unofficial English translation[3]

Cyrillic script[4] Latin script IPA transcription[b] Жаралған намыстан қаһарман халықпыз, Азаттық жолында жалындап жаныппыз. Тағдырдың тезінен, тозақтың өзінен Аман-сау қалыппыз, аман-сау қалыппыз. Қайырмасы: Еркіндік қыраны шарықта, Елдікке шақырып тірлікте! Алыптың қуаты – халықта, Халықтың қуаты – бірлікте! Ардақтап анасын, құрметтеп данасын, Бауырға басқанбыз баршаның баласын. Татулық, достықтың киелі бесігі Мейірбан Ұлы Отан, қазақтың даласы! Қайырмасы Талайды өткердік, өткенге салауат, Тәуліктік сәулетті, келешек ғаламат! Ар-ождан, ана тіл, өнеге-салтымыз, Ерлік те, елдік те ұрпаққа аманат! Қайырмасы Jaralğan namystan qaharman halyqpyz, Azattyq jolynda jalyndap janyppyz. Tağdyrdyñ tezınen, tozaqtyñ özınen Aman-sau qalyppyz, aman-sau qalyppyz. Qaiyrmasy: Erkındık qyrany şaryqta, Eldıkke şaqyryp tırlıkte! Alyptyñ quaty – halyqta, Halyqtyñ quaty – bırlıkte! Ardaqtap anasyn, qūrmettep danasyn, Bauyrğa basqanbyz barşanyñ balasyn. Tatulyq, dostyqtyñ kielı besıgı – Meiırban Ūly Otan, qazaqtyñ dalasy! Qaiyrmasy Talaidy ötkerdık, ötkenge salauat, Täulıktık säulettı, keleşek ğalamat! Ar-ojdan, ana tıl, önege-saltymyz, Erlık te, eldık te ūrpaqqa amanat!

We are the brave and proud people of Kazakhstan. Fortune has favored us, we survived with our land. We survived in our fight for freedoms light. Coming out of the dark tyrant's hell, tyrant's hell. Chorus: Steppe Eagle, fly up high in the sky. Call the people to life with your cry. Our heroes come out of the people, Whose strength is in their great unity. Respecting the motherland, honoring the genius of the people, In the hour of hard times, we have opened our arms to all. The holy cradle of friendship and solidarity, The Kazakh steppe — the beloved homeland! Chorus We’ve overcome the hardships, let the past serve bitter lesson But today we face a radiant future. Our mother tongue, tradition and sovereignty We pass, as the mandate, to the next generations! Chorus

A lot of people then said to me, 'Maybe your words are actually good, but you're not famous; you're a woman. Try joining up with others.' Zhadyra, showing admirable restraint, somehow didn't tell any of these people to shove their chauvinism somewhere unpleasant. Instead, she found some men willing to work with her - famous men at that - and the group spent the next three months sending letters back and forth, toiling to put all of Kazakhstan's history and its people's emotions into just three verses and a chorus
