Uzbekistan

Words by: Timur Fattah and Turab Tula
Music by: Mutal Burhanov
In use: 1947-1992

Like other republics of the Soviet Union at the time, Uzbekistan (known as the Uzbek Soviet Socialist Republic at this time) had its own anthem, which was in use until shortly after the disintegration of the Soviet Union. Unlike most former republics, the melody was retained for the new anthem. (Note that the first word of the lyrics, "Assalom", is an Uzbek greeting.)

Special thanks to: Pavel Zinovatny for the English translation and Jaroslaw Wojcik for the sheet music.
